"When I was thirteen"

When I was thirteen... I was in seventh grade at Roosevelt Intermediate School and I carpooled with my two cousins who still live up the street from me at home. One thing I remember about school was the lockers; mine always used to get stuck and I would have to kick it to get it open. A few days a week I would go to the lawn mower shop my grandpa owns after school to see if I could make any money by helping out. Of course there was always homework to be done. I would have a snack and then my mom would always make me do my homework right away before I could go anywhere.
