What do you do when you’re stressing about school?

Do you chug obscene amounts of caffeine and stay up all night trying to finish everything at once? Do you order a pizza and eat it cold and chewy piece-by-piece for breakfast, lunch and dinner because you have no time to go to the grocery store?

It was only a few laps into the hobby feature. My brother was in the far right turn of the track and another car’s nose collided into him. The section our family sat in was entirely on their feet trying to see clearly through the dust of the red clay.

In later years the crowd would grow love him nearly as much as we did and would rise with us, but this was early in his racing career when we alone where his cheerleaders.

This past May, I drove six hours to go home to visit my friend for his twenty second birthday. Or rather, visit his grave.

Troy died on Oct. 13, 2008 in a motorcycle accident. On our way to his funeral, me and my best friend got lost. On our way to visit his grave, the same thing happened.

Everyone knows where Troy is buried, but none of us know how to get there. I cried on the way there to his funeral because I was afraid we were going to miss it. I wanted to cry on my way to visit, this time, because I felt that same sense of defeat.

It was a late July night when the sound of my vibrating phone on my nightstand woke me from my sleep. The bright glow of the LCD screen burned my retinas as I squinted to read that I had a message from Facebook. Ren Anderson would like to be your friend on Facebook. I set the phone down ignoring this person I assumed was probably from high school and fell peacefully back into my slumber.

For two weeks after 9/11 I slept under my small wooden desk. I was 10 years old wrapped up in a Lion King sleeping bag, listening to a conservative news radio show on my blue boom box.

We all remember where we were when we found out, some more vividly than others. I was in my fifth grade gifted classroom. But the most vivid thing in my mind is sleeping on the floor with my radio.
