So yeah. I, Ezra Thomas, 14 years old, am what most die-hard fans of any team below .500 team call me, a bandwagoner.
I try to root for specific teams, but, if I like what I see in a player, I just want them to succeed. I generally get most of my hate from Clippers fans (cough, Zach, cough), or, some Cowboys fans (cough, Tobey, cough), teams who just started getting good. And the problem is, all of their fans who were with the Clippers from the beginning, are all hating because they had to wait to cheer on and believe their teams could, potentially, contend for a title, when all I did was root for a player or 2 whom I believe could potentially be a star.
My first bandwagoning experience, like millions of others across the nation, began with Stephen Curry.

It's the last year of high school, and everything has changed . . .
*****
After a summer spent in the Philippines, Lara Dela Cruz is eager to start her senior year and, most importantly, reunite with her three besties. But what she did not expect was to show up on the first day of school to all three of her friends now in relationships. Fighting for their attention, catching some new and confusing feelings for long-time frenemy James, and wading through the pressures of post-high-school plans all have Lara reeling. And to make matters worse, Lara's beautiful and untrustworthy cousin conveniently appears and wiggles her way right between her and James' budding relationship. Feeling like a third wheel in more ways than one, Lara must learn to accept that change is inevitable, love is complicated, and being the odd one out is sometimes where inner power is found.
