If It Doesn't Kill You Margaret Bechard Jun 01, 1999 In middle school, everybody makes a big deal about going to high school. Like it's going to be this really scary place. Well, I've only been here for a couple of months, but so far I like high school. Lots of people know who I am, because I'm sort of good at playing football. I guess I'm pretty much a jock. And at this school, being a jock is way better than being a preppy or a nerd or a stoner. So school is probably about as good as it gets. Home's not so great. I mean, it was great until my dad moved out of the house and moved in with a guy named Keith. Believe me, this is not something you just kind of mention in the cafeteria with the bean burritos. Especially when my dad was the star quarterback at this very school. So that's the story. It's really just me. Ben Gearhart. Trying to figure stuff out. Like girls. And the guys on the team. And Dad.
