This is anxiety. As I set in my blocks waiting for the gun to go off‚ my arms begin to shake. This is anxiety. Going back to my first high school track meet‚ I never thought I would make it this far. When I first decided to go out for track it was only to stay in shape and to get myself ready for softball season.

In the summer going into freshman year‚ my grandpa said to me he expected a state ring. I told him that was impossible. A freshman doesn’t get a varsity spot‚ especially with as much talent the upperclassmen have. Little did I know that anything is possible when I put my mind to it. My first sport in high school was soccer and I wasn’t prepared for the amount of fitness I needed. I thought that I was in shape‚ but I was in for a rude awakening. The first practice we ran the entire time. I hated

My First High School Basketball Game I believe playing a sport that you love is fun‚ but at the same time winning is more fun. For me I figured this out when I was ten years old. I was playing a pickup game at the RAC and my brother hit the game winning shot. I was so happy because I gave him the assists. Then it came to me like I bolt of lightning that playing basketball is fun when you win. Ever since that moment it helped me perform to my full potential. It was cold snowy Saturday morning

Only 2 tedious hours of school and I could go home and lay in my queen size bed with my body sized pillow because today was just not my day.

I remind myself‚ as I run my first high school 5k. I was nearing the final‚ lit up and glowing soccer stadium. Tall bleachers filled with people surrounded and hovered over the field like a vulture over it’s dead prey. Prior to this race‚ I had only ran one high school race‚ a 3k. Even though I had trained all summer long‚ my hamstring problems that had started a while ago‚ we’re just then beginning to clear up. This meet though‚ wasn’t near home‚ like the first meet. 3.75 hours out‚ Jackson

friends‚ family‚ and my laughter. Growing up and born in my native country gave me a feeling like I was wanted there‚ like I belong there. Laughing and playing were the things I do the most. I got a nickname‚”bà điên”(crazy lady)‚ from my random outburst of laugher. I was totally unaware of something that was soon to come and change my life. I was still in grade school playing with my friends when my dad came with the principle and told me that I am going to America. The word “Mỹ” (America) would

DEVE- 0324 12 4 September 2008 My first two weeks My first two weeks of school was full of pure‚ concentrated chaos. The day before school I found out I couldn’t get my books because my financial aid didn’t come. My first actual school day I was a little late because my tire was on flat. Once I finally got to school I realized I wasn’t late because my first class had been cancelled for the semester. That day after school I found out I may have to quit my evening job because the class I picked
