A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO NOT GOING TO SCHOOL
Something interesting that happened in my life was back in 2017 when I used to play in a soccer team, we were going to play our last game. This game was the "Finals", so as you can tell it was the most important game of our season, this game determined if all of our hard work payed off. I was so nervous but mostly excited about playing, I thought nothing but putting my absolute all into this last final match, but then of course there was a change of plans. I had went to my cousins 15th birthday party in Oakland, I was helping my grandma that had came from Mexico to be in this party as well, serve food to all the guests at each table. Everything was fine until after we had finished serving all the guests, and every adult stood up and went to go dance, I decided to take a break because I was tired from walking, table to table, I was laying between 2 chairs with a blanket over me because I was cold, I ended up staying laying down until the party was finally over, and it was time to start cleaning up. I tried to get up to help, but as hard as I tried to move my legs, I couldn't, so my cousin tried picking me up, but when he did my knee popped, and it hurt! After everyone finished cleaning we all went back to my cousins house, they wanted to check up on my legs so they rolled up my jeans and on both legs their was a huge rash. They took me to a hospital near by to see what it was, but the strangest thing was, I couldn't walk or even stand up right, they had to sit me down on a wheel chair and push me into a room. I ended staying at the hospital that entire night, and all I could think about was my soccer game that I had that weekend on Sunday, I was wondering if I would be able to play, but to my guess I couldn't. I was just too weak and needed to recover, I was so bummed out, because I had been looking forward to it the whole week, but even if I couldn't play, I wanted to be present for my team and for myself. I just watched my team play the whole game, but even if I wasn't playing, I still had a lot of energy to cheer my teammates on, and you wouldn't believe it, my team won. After the game was over, everyone was running like crazy and all of a sudden they started bringing out water bottles and started wetting our coach, it truly was a great experience, even if I wasn't able to play, and ever since that day I stopped playing soccer and started playing basketball, but now that, that's a whole different story.
