the love for the game


i have been playing soccer for 13 years of my life. its has been a major part of my life because my whole family plays. i would be a very different person if i had never played soccer. i first started play soccer in the kindergarten. as i progressed through the years i got better.there are many different things i have learned by playing soccer. the most valuable thing is probably team work. team work is major part of soccer because if you cant work with your team you will never win a game. my most memorable moment in soccer was this year we were playing on a new turf field and we were down one player and had no subs. there was only ten minutes left in the game and the game was tied. the other team had just fouled one of are player and we were taking a direct free kick 35 yard out from the goal as Phil my team mate to the kick i ran to the far post of the goal and the whole thing felt like it was in slow motion as the ball came across i jump up and head the ball and it went into the bottom right corner of the net. i was stunned when i saw it and i couldn't believe that i had scored we won that game 3-2.but probably the best thing that i have taken from soccer is all the different friends i have made.

the holiday shoot out

every family gathering on my dads side we have a big paintball game at my uncles lake. my uncles has 90 acres of land that i have converted into an amazing paintball course. the whole thing took my 2 weeks to build.so at both ends of the course there is a huge base one is in the open and the other is in a giant fig tree bush thing. along the sides of the hills i have dug trench's 4 feet deep and 4 feet wide. part of the of the field is under some trees and the other part is in a long narrow field. in the narrow field i have bought some inflatable bunkers and have made bunkers out of trees i have cut down.

so last year i think it was spring break and i was spending it at my uncles house and we were having a big barbecue. so after we ate we split the teams and it was my team vs me uncles team and the game began. the whole game lasted for about an hour. i was the last one on my team and there was 4 other people on the other team . they had me bunkered in a trench. so i decided to just go for i.t i jump out of the trench and started firing like a mad man. as i soon as i jump out of the trench i shot two of them and i ran to the bushes under a tree to hid. as soon as i lay down in the bush i hear something crack above me. i look up and see my 10 year old cousin sitting on a tree branch. by the time i tryed to run she had all ready had shot me. i was so mad. till this day she never lets me forget the time she shot me.

stupid beaver



okay so at my uncle house has 12o acres of land with a 30 acre lake. in this lake he has all kinds of fish and stuff, but the new thing that has take over is beavers which have came over from the river right by his lake. so one summer afternoon me and my uncle were at his house just sitting on the couch watching TV. my uncle turns to me and says that he is bored so i said lets go fishing. so we went to the shed and grab the fishing pole and the tackle box. as we head down to the dock we heard a big splash . it kinda startled me. i ask him what it was he said it was just a beaver that has been living in his lake for like 4 months. as we got to the dock i look down the shore line of the lake and saw all the trees have been cut down. so i turned to my uncle and said this beaver is a pain it s destroying the lake. so that when i told my uncle the idea that we should go get are paintball guns and go mess with this beaver. he hesitated at first but then he said why not. so we grab are paintball guns and load up and jump into the boat. as we headed across the lake i saw the beavers head skimming across the water so i pick up my paintball gun and spread a line of paintball's at the beaver. we did this for a half hour until we ran out of paint. after that i have never seen the beaver again. but some how the trees are still getting cut down. but if i ever seen that beaver again i be back in that boat chancing it down.
