The 10 words that I chose and why are significant: Gun- in the end of the book he shoots himself in the head. You would think he was dead but he missed and burnt himself, which was important to know. Football- he loved to play football, that's what the book was about. Football explains his need for Gym Candy. Steroids- he used them to be stronger. That led to his body issues and him shooting himself Head shot- he took the gun and shot himself. But luckily he missed badly getting it real dramatic Acne- he got it on his back and chest. This shows the side affects going on with him. Muscular- he drank a muscle shake, and took steroids. This showed he was serious about getting strong. Clever- he was very sneaky and he was putting needles in him without anybody knowing. He was so good at it he never got caught. Protein Shake- he did this along with the actual drug. He would drink the muscle milk in the cafe during lunch, and a kid was making fun of him. Nolvadex- an antibiotic that treats hard and and long nipples during steroid use. This is important because it described how his body was taking to it. Gym- everyday after school he would drive over to the gym and workout. This was to assist his drug, and was important because it showed that he wanted to work hard.
