picture blog


I choose this picture because it best describes the happiest moment of my high school career.  Leading up to it was some of the hardest moments of my life, however I realize now because of those things that I have become an even stronger person because of it.  While most of my wrestling matches I cannot remember due to my brain being so preoccupied with winning, I do remember this one completely because it was one of my most important ones and one of my last ones. I also know that it will stay with me for the rest of my life.
            The night before my match we had to stay up until around three in the morning to set up the gym. Wrestling is not a very hard sport to set up for, however we had to wait until the basketball game was done for the night. On top of that I had to cut around three pounds that night, which was normal but still very painful. If you have ever tried to loose weight rapidly you will understand what I am talking about. The five hundred calorie diets or about an apple a day, the constant stepping on a scale to see if you have lost another tenth of a pound. With all my sweatshirts on I started running that while the basketball game was going on. Three pounds, I new I should not have had that extra sip of water at lunch.
