"When we got to Cozad I liked it, it was small and quite but much bigger than our old town. And all I saw was little kids running around and playing so I wanted to go and join them. I thought it was going to be awesome, then I got older and there was nothing to do. The only thing you could do is bowl and I don't like to bowl, but good thing I play sports.
I was scared to move to Cozad but now I'm good with it. I have a bunch of friends but I still miss my old ones. Now we are here for ten years since we moved here. I like it and it's so quite and small, but we are really good at sports and I have a bunch of friends, and that's what I have."
