(S2) - PT #2 - Locker Personalization

[SwagSloth]

To me, the most important things you’ll find in my locker are pictures of my family back home. Traveling from southern Louisiana to Canada, it’s easy to miss my family back home and I try to keep them near and dear to me. My immediate family is front and center with a picture of my parents and younger sister, who is now a cheerleader at the High School I attended. I also have pictures of my nieces and nephews, who e-mail and FaceTime me to cheer me on from back home. It’s always a reminder of where I’ve come from and helps inspire me before games and practices.

I also keep newspaper article clippings of my games back home, along with a LSU logo towel gifted to me many years back from my days there. I love my team now, but I also appreciate my days back in school as a reminder of where I’ve come from. Besides, even though I like the challenge of the NSFL, I have to admit that part of me misses being the star of the team. It’s nice to look back and remember those good times as I work hard to earn a top spot on my new team.
