Childhood Memory My favorite childhood memory was when I was twelve years old with my Grandpa Joe on a fishing trip. We took his boat out into the Gulf and spent the day fishing‚ telling jokes and having a nice relaxing day. It was by far the best day I ever had with my Grandpa Joe.

began to set in. The long hours awaited my team and I to give everything we had out there in the field. Our team was good but the opposing team was just as good so it was a challenge that grew in tension as the game progressed. The greatest memory came when I scored the first goal of the game.
