I was in Girl Scouts for one month with my sister, then we lost interest. We<br />
joined because of an advertisement we saw at school. While we were there we got<br />
to taste test Girl Scout cookies, and we learned how to help people when they get<br />
hurt.<br />
Another sport I did as a kid was basketball, it was my favorite sport back<br />
then. My uncle Charles played with me and thought I was good at scoring baskets.<br />
Before my parents got divorced when I was 3, we lived in Covington,<br />
Washington. We got around the city in our car (long distances) or <strong>by</strong> biking (short<br />
distances). I would play with the other kids in our neighborhood. Something that<br />
happened there was when I was looking at bugs under this stone at my friends<br />
Orion and when he asked if we were done looking at them, so he could put the<br />
stone back. I said “No” and he didn't hear me, so he accidentally dropped the stone<br />
right on my finger. It bled and it ended up chipping my finger bone. His mom put<br />
cotton balls on my finger and then wrapped the cotton in duct tape to make a<br />
makeshift band-aid splint thing.<br />
