    In 2003, my dad bought a house in Abington. We moved to Abington from Newtown. In Newtown we lived in a town home but we moved into a bigger house here in Abington. Fortunately for me, we moved at a young age so I did not know many people. It was a smooth and quick move

    Start of Junior High School
    When I first got onto the bus to go to Junior High School, I was petrified. I had a few friends on the bus, but when I got to my first class, I met a lot of new people. I quickly made friends and started to get less scared and enjoyed the Junior High. After a fast few years, it came to an end.

    In 2009, my family and I went to Israel because my dad qualified for the Macabre games. Although I was sick for half of the trip, I still had a great time.

    I made varsity tennis and won first singles
    It was one of the best days of my life when I not only made varsity tennis as a freshmen, I was the first singles player. I beat out a junior and senior for the spot and I was ecstatic. I went on to have a fantastic year and ended up with a winning record. I also made districts and was one of the three freshman to have this honor. It was a great season.
  • First day of high school

    First day of high school
    This year, I began my short journey at Abington Senior High. It marked my first time that I actually had to put effort into school. Mr. Garry decided to give us a early quiz which I obviously aced but my second one I didn't do so hot on despite the fact I had notes with me. This was a awakening to me and I realized High School will be a hard task.
