The worst typical day is at my so called job, which is softball practice. I like softball practice, but this one day it really stunk. It all started out by me being late to softball practice. I normally get off the bus around 3:30, but that day the bus was having some problems. The bus had to pull over and the bus driver had to check the engine. By the time she checked the engine it was 3:30.I got home around 4:00 which put me 30 minutes behind schedule. I finally arrive at softball practice around 5:30 Alabama time, 6:30 Georgia time. That is really bad because it is suppose to start at 6:00 Georgia time and 5:00 Alabama time. My coach didn’t scream (thank the lord) but I didn’t really have to worry about that because my coach isn’t really a screamer. He was really upset and made me do 20 burpees which are the worst things on earth. After I get done with the burpees everyone has already done their workouts. I have to do my workouts all by myself, which means I don’t have a rest station which really stinks and so, I was really tired after that.

And a towel over my eye, but the good thing is that Claire 's dad is a surgeon and said that I don’t have to have stitches, but it really hurt and now I have a scar over my right eye that makes my eyebrow higher than the other. After that, I went home and had a horrible headache the next day. That was the worst typical day

    When I first joined softball I remember it being such a beautiful day it was really fresh out in the softball field, the sky was light blue with birds flying high above, and the softball field’s grass was dark green and looked great for a picnic.
