MY FAVORITE SPORT

For many days of life, we all have something to do; activities, chores, clubs, parties and etc… Well I also do.

Well mine, I may not be that good in it, but I am looking forward of doing so. I like to play soccer; it's one of famous and popular sports all over the world…

I can say, it's hard to do the ball handling with feet, unlike basketball which easier. BUT the easiest part of it is that, when you get the ball, AIM, KICK IT as far as you can, as fast as you can, stronger than you can, higher than you can. Or just block the opposite team and guess their next moves.

But I play different; I am neither striker nor a midfielder.  I am just a defender. I tough one!  It's not easy for them to get pass on me, OR sometimes, a goalkeeper. It's hard to be a goalkeeper, it's not because you are not skilled  you're a goalkeeper; most people do think of that; it's because they know you can and you are the only one who can do better than anyone else. Goalkeeping is a tough position. Mostly you'll be responsible if the opposite team scores a goal. Well that's soccer only. 

Imagine there are still a lot of sports around the world. Imagine gymnasts, basketball players, swimmers, mountain climbers, football players, baseball players… NO SPORT HAS NO CHALLENGE… You just have to learn… that's the challenge.

In soccer, it's the BATTLE FOR THE BALL… It's all about a spherical shaped rubber with air inside that they are fighting for.

In my life, I began playing soccer when I was about 7 years old, I was in Africa… African people play soccer a lot... Like every day, they play soccer with anything, with any ball, a coconut, a plastic bottle, or even a soda can! Imagine that! Besides that, they play anywhere, on mud, in the middle of the road, in rocky places, in sands, on water, while raining and MORE!!

I learned how to play and some of my friends admire me for defense skills and goalkeeping skills… BUT sometimes I do get lazy or underestimating, which makes it easier for the others to score on me… WOW!?

AMAZING right? Right now, I dreamed of playing soccer and be a soccer player for my own country because I don't think Philippines has a national soccer team… Well I haven't heard one…

That's all for everyone,

GOOD DAY!
