The expectations for baseball is work hard in practice, put in work in the weight room, and have heart. To be a member of the baseball team at whitney you have to perform well on the field and in the classroom. My role on the team this year was to pinch run and steal all the bases.

We practiced on the Whitney Young field at skinner park. After practice we would normally go to the locker room on the second floor in the gym building. When we leave the locker room we would hang out at Billy Goats to eat and crack jokes until our rides come. Doing all these things make me feel warm and comfortable because im hanging with the team and it helps build chemistry when we are on the field. This is my community because I have many things in common with my teamates and I feel accepted.

The expectations in my family consist of keeping your room clean, getting good grades, taking care of one another. To be a member of our family you have to be related to us or be close friends with everyone in our family for a long time. My role in this family is to do well in anything to set an example for the next generation.

We live by the Garfield park conservatory but we spend most of our time on the road going to my games or to parties that other friends/family might have. We spend most of our Holidays at my Grandma's house in St. Louis. I feel comfortable in my family because we make each other better with constructive critisism all time. This is my community because I am welcomed, treated fairly, supported, and my atmosphere would be the same without my family.

The expectations for my friends are to be as funny as possible, be honest, and respect their privacy. To be one of my friends you have to be funny, dress nice, and not afraid to get your mack on. My role with my friends is the "goof ball" since im the funniest I have to keep my friends entertained.

We normally hangout at school but when we go out to lunch we end up going to Chipotle, Bacci's, McDonalds, or Billy Goats. We normally have macking sessions (when you flirt with many girls) when the whole crew is together. I feel comfortable with my friends because I can be open and dont really have to be worried about what comes out my mouth. This is my community because my friends and I share the same values.
