To My Favorite Coach

A high school coach is someone that will forever have an impact on your life.

High school coaches are there to encourage the students and to help them reach their full potential. They are there to push the kids and make them believe that they can do it. High school coaches will be someone that student thinks about for the rest of their life.

They will always be the person they think about in difficult situations because most of the time they taught them how to handle it. Coaches are there to encourage, teach, push you, and build your character. Not all high school coaches are good, but when you get the best one you will know and forever remember them.

My favorite high school coach happened to be my best friends mom. She became like another mother to me. I first meet this special lad during my first grade year. She was the best teacher, and of course, I was her favorite student.

She has always been the one to push me to do my very best. She was the best cheer coach. She made us practice everyday which helped us even if we disagreed with it. She always knew what was best for us.

Mrs. Ward is a coach like no other. I know every girl that she ever coached would agree with me. She gave up so much of her own personal time to make sure we were the very best every time we stepped out on that mat. She always wanted us to be the best. She taught us how to be great cheerleaders but also great people and what respect is. She always pushed us to be involved and be nice to everyone. We will always look up to her because the sacrifices she made for us will never go unforgotten.

My coach made such an impact on my life that I will forever be grateful for. She only was suppose to coach me; she did not have to do all the extra things she did for us. She taught us all the important life lessons she knew we would need for the future.

She will always be the person I remember from school at Ranburne. She was with me through elementary all through high school. Also, being her daughter's best friend I spent countless nights at their house. This special lady will always have a special place in my heart, and I could never thank you enough.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
