I was always tall for my age. When I started Grade 7，I was taller than all the other students in the school and most of the teachers.

You may think it is cool to be tall，but I was never very athletic. Other kids could do things in sports that I just couldn't do，like hitting or throwing a baseball. I was the world's worst thrower.

In Grade 8，we got a new teacher. He took a look at me and said，" Darlene，this school needs a basketball team，and you are going to be the star !"I laughed. And my friends laughed harder. "Darlene doesn't even know what a basketball is!" joked one of my friends. The new teacher said. "Don't worry. I'll show you what she can do."

Every day after school，I worked with the new teacher. He told me that my job would be to play center (中锋).I practiced hard. Most of all，I practiced shooting (投篮).When I first started，I got zero of ten shot (投篮）I took. But after a few weeks，I had about five of ten shots landing in the basket. I still wasn't very good. But I was so tall that if someone took a shot I was usually the first one to reach the ball after it came down.

The season came and went. We didn't do very well，but I learned something about myself，I'm in Grade9 now and not good enough yet to make it to the high school team. But I think I will be next year. It's exciting to discover something about yourself and to know that you are what you make of yourself.

Mom and Dad are two of the most important persons in your life. Over your lifetime，they may influence you more than anyone else you will meet.
