It is 60 degrees out, with 5 mph winds. It is my second to last game of the season. I am 9 years old and I am awesome at softball. This is just me playing my softball game, softball is my favorite sport. I am a pitcher, 2nd baseman, 3rd baseman, outfielder, and also a short stop. I am a catcher that never catches because; I hate the dirt flying up in my face.
This is the bravest thing I have ever done. I go back to the hotel and pack my bag. I am going to get out. I am going to fly away. I may never come back. I will begin again, as someone else-unrecognizable. I move to lift my bag off the bed, I pull it up and my knee goes out. I start to fall but catch myself. I pull at taw bag and take a step-too heavy… There is pain, searing, spreading, pouring, hot and cold, like water down my back, down my legs…I lie there waiting for the paralysis to recede (Homes
I needed to go to the emergency room, so I did. I was wheeled into one of the open rooms to be seen by the nurse and doctor. The nurse came in right away to take my temperature. Then she left and we waited ten minutes for the doctor to check my ankle out. I was shivering in pain. The doctor came in took X-rays and gave me a pain killer. The doctor came back and told me that I had fractured my ankle, but I would not have to get surgery. The doctor and the nurse put a cast that went from my ankle all the way up to my knee. The casts was not a normal cast, you dip it in water and then mold it until it hardens. I waited for it to harden and then it was time to learn how to use crutches. I was trying to move to fast and would trip. It took me a couple of days to get the hang of it.
It’s been said that effort, determination and attitude are key to success. Since my 7th grade year, I have been in cheerleading. Beginning my freshman year, cheerleading tryouts were something I would have to endure throughout all of high school.
If you have never boogie boarded, you are missing out. Boogie boarding is basically surfing, but on your stomach. Katelyn and I got toppled on. The waves were ginormous and we got flipped around and stuck under water multiple times. Another adventurous thing we did, was paddle board. It was probably not very smart, but we went out in big waves paddle boarding. We got tossed and turned around multiple times and it was actually quite fun having the waves coming under us and trying to stay on. We were in the water more than on the board. I wanted to go out farther, but Katelyn was to scared to because of sharks. The whole beach got kick out of us paddle
When you last heard from me, it was about two months when I first boarded the ship. The voyage was normal at first, the only discomfort being the number of passengers traveling with me. The reason for the overcrowding was due to the passengers hoping they can experience a new life for not only themselves, but also their family and friends. This was my intention too. After a couple of weeks at sea, there was a massive storm that threw the ship off course. Thankfully there were no fatalities, however an abundance of the crew members were injured and unable to fulfill their duties till we reached shore. The officials of the ship did not plan for such an extraordinary event to occur, so there was a massive food shortage. We ran into more storms as time passed, however
The scariest most painful thing that has ever happned to me was in kindergarden when I broke my arm. Me and my cousin, Taylnn were at my grandparents house when it happned. Taylnn and I were fooling around and she jumped from the tall dresser to the bed. Being her little cousin I looked up to her and wanted to try to jump from the dresser to the bed just like she did. So, She slowly helped me get on top of the dresser. I was so terrifyed when I reached the top. I looked down the tall brown dresser. I wanted to get down , but she urged me own. So I closed my eyes and jumped. I didnt make the jump I started to scream,cry, and yell. My arm felt like it was going to fall off ! I didnt know what happned to my arm ,It just hurt like crazy!
Each week off the bike felt like an eternity. After a week I decided to try and ride with my cast. I rode around my neighborhood for a short time, but soon my arm started to hurt again. I stopped, disappointed that my arm had started hurting again. I didn 't try and ride again for the next five weeks. As soon as my cast came off I was back to riding my bike. If my injury did anything, it motivated me to want to ride more. Soon I was training harder than ever and getting faster every ride. Breaking my arm also taught me to be more careful when riding clipped in. Soon came race day I finished in 7 hours 20 minutes. I had not only finished, I also set the record for under 16 and won the youth
I was watching the Marlins Baseball team play while I was sitting in a Hospital.
I was at baseball practice. I was in the outfield, the overgrown and bee infested outfield.
My nerves were racing in my stomach to no end. I’m wondering if everything is ok? Will everything be as I planned? I couldn 't stop thinking what might happen. Thoughts were running wild as I thought about my team going on to play without me. I couldn 't figure out why I had to let the team handle the game without me. I had played with them all season and some for a few previous years and when they needed me the most, all I was able to do was watch from a TV. I hated the feeling of helplessness that I had, but at the same time I knew there was nothing I could do about it.
Beaching myself, I crawl about three feet before throwing up the water in my lungs. After my lungs were purged of any unnecessary liquids I stood, leaning on my good foot, then looking at my damaged arm. The pain hits me and I collapse and throw up again. Feeling faint I do my best to pull myself together before I pass out. Standing once again and trying to look at the positives, I realize I am not dead, and the pain in my arm may give
Sitting in the nurse's office, I called my parents and they said they would be there as soon as possible, but camp but a little over an hour away. I ate probably five popsicles while sitting in the nurse’s office, but they didn’t taste as exceptional as they usually do since I was in pain. Originally, I was supposed to stay three more nights, but I guess my camp experience was over for that summer. Soon enough, my parents got there and we started our drive back home. My mom thought it was broken, but my dad swore it was just a sprained ankle that would heal in a week or two, so we waited until the next morning to go to the doctor to find
Alameda County California. I grew up in Oakland, California and went to Franklin Elementary School. When I was in the 5th grade I moved to Hayward California and went to Eldridge Elementary School. As a transfer student, I felt different from everyone else and my learning abilities were different. I learned quicker than others and was more intellectual than they were and because of these things I never really had friends. I passed all my classes with A’s or B’s.
Last week, Allstate reimbursed me the deductible of $500 that I paid for damages to my car. Does this mean that the other party admitted his fault? I want to know what happens next and whether I am going to court or not.
