IF YOU KNEW THEN WHAT YOU KNOW NOW…WHAT WOULD YOU TELL THE HIGH SCHOOL KIM?:
Be more empathetic-you never know what someone else is going through.
THE BEST THING ABOUT BEING A FIREBIRD WAS: the team and our coaches. We were always competitive but had the best time playing together! Everyone pushed each other to be better and you knew it was because they wanted the best for the team.
