1. autobiographical
incident
by Joe Desgravise
One day at recess a couple years back i was playing soccer with my
friends and i was picked to be goalie.SMACK!!! a powerful kick came at me from
the other
team.
In that short moment i remembered something veeeeeeeeeeeeerrry
important.I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY SOCCER!!!!!!!!!!
"these guys have been playing all year and i just started today!we can never
win.
As you can see i wasn't very confident with myself and that didn't
help much,in fact it made me worse.
Another kick came at me and i thought i would let it slip through my fingers as
the others did.
I was out of time to think, it had to be now or never so i jumped up, stretched out
my arms and was surprised to feel it stay in my hands!
When my feet hit the ground i was stunned in shock had just made the best
save imaginable that a newbie goalie could make.
After that save i felt more confident in myself that it actually made me better!
My team and me ended up going from 6-1 to 8-8 and tied the game!
At that moment the whistle blew signaling the end of recess and it was time to
go inside, i guess there wouldn't be a winner,
