Though my main focus is on academics currently, I also have a job as a youth basketball ref. In addition to a difficult set of advanced classes at my high school, I have a job that, well, Short story put… I hate. A lot. It’s stressful and makes me feel emotionally drained by the end of the night. Being yelled at by an entire crowd of crazy parents, crazy scorekeepers, and crazy coaches is NOT fun.

Good news is…I will be applying for a job at Regal Cinema soon (closest theatre). I’v heard wonderful things about working at movie theatres and am hopefully gonna get hired. I have a 4.0, and do a ton of community service, so I think my chances are good.

I’m just very happy about this because reffing has made me feel like absolute shit this entire past year that I’v done it.
