2. All About Me My birthday is 10/18/1997 and I’m 11 years old. I’m 4197 days old and 100,728 hours old. I was born under a full moon. Gas cost $1.29 a gallon, bread cost $0.87, milk cost $0.67, a car cost $19,260, a house cost 176,200. The most popular song was I believe I can fly. The most popular show was Star Trek. The most popular movie was the Titanic. In 1887 on October 18 America bought Alaska from Russia. My name means meadow.

3. When I was in the third grade I decided to play tackle football. It was really fun and my coach was nice. But every practice our coach would make us do all these exercises that made everything hurt. On top of that we had to run 4 laps around the field. Then we started the actual practice. In our first game I couldn't believe some of these kids were 10 years old. They looked like they weighed 200 pounds and were 5 foot 7. I learned quick that you have to avoid the huge people unless you wanted to be squished. I was one of the smallest on the team. But I had 2 friends to help me which were Liam and Paul. Amazingly my coach put me on the Allstar team at the end of the year. Each team picks 4 to 6 of they're best players and they make up the Allstar team. Half of the 9 and 10 year olds division go on one team and half go on the other. Then they play each other. I played a small role in the game but it was still a lot of fun. After that year I played again and I'm going to play one more. Then I will be able to play for Christ Church! When you were younger…

5. Being Your Age Hey, I'm Lee and I'm going to tell you about myself. I have brown hair and brown eyes. I am 11 years old and I'm average in height. I'm like most kids my age because I don't think there's a point in homework and sports are very important. I think I'm different from other kids my age because I can jump pretty high. I don't really know what the most unusual thing about me is. It bothers me when people don't complete goals because of wheelchairs and stuff like that. It makes me happy when I watch Georgia play. Sports are very important to me. That is what I'm like.

6. Today there are lots of things that are “in” and a lot of stuff is “out”. Some examples of stuff that is in would be Cheeseburgers, football, basketball, soccer, T-shirts, gym shorts, unbrushed hair, ESPN News, Sports center. But examples of stuff that is not in would be collared shirts, combs, Dora the Explorer, slow songs, health food, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, hockey, Batman, and Superman. How I dress is not important. Just as long as its not fancy. I think school eats up 7 hours of a perfect day. Occasionally it will be exited but most of the time it’s really boring. One of my biggest conflicts is finding time to do both sports and school. You always worry about how you are going to do on a test. When I’m not in school I’m playing with my friends. I go to Church every other week. So a typical Sunday changes a lot. I don’t go to any clubs, church groups, or volunteer work. But I do play a lot of sports. Girls are always strange and never seem to agree. Sometimes they can be helpful. But I don’t like how annoying they are and they always leave you thinking “What just happened.”

9. My Song My song is Right Round because it is fast and you can sing it. When I hear it on the radio It sound really good.
