Spring has sprung
So Saturday was the spring games. I had fun. I participated in track and field. I ran the 100 and 4 by 100 and the turbo jave, a plastic javelin. I was really nervous about running my first race( the 100 meter dash) because I fell the year before but I did not fall and got sliver. In the four by 100 I was able to pass up another runner as anchor for second place. In jav, I got first because no one was in my division. Now we just have to see if I get to go to summer games. It would be a nice thing to do in the summer. If I do not get to go as an athlete this year I might go to watch since I have never been to summer games.

Why I am supporting the Patriots
he grew up in San Mateo CA and went to the same church that I went to for CCD and basketball. I played on a inclusive basketball team there and now a little guy with DS plays there because I recommend it to them when he played soccer on our county special olympics team

Softball Sunday
My first ever SO event 2005 |
On the way back to my area I heard about the violence at the 49ers game. For those outside California there had been an similar attack on the fans at a Giants Dodgers game earlier this year. These two attacks make me reflect on something. The world should be more like a special Olympics competition. take today for example. During the game we are all want to win. Athletes are happy when their team wins and get sad when their teams lose. The major difference is what happened off the field. People have friends on the opposing team ( yes some of this results from athletes move to cities) but this isn't always the case during lunch time a athlete came around to ask us if we wanted lickerish. This athlete was not our team mate but it did not matter the person had lickerish and offered to share it. Couldn't the world be more like that Have a healthy competition where everyone tries his or her best but at the end of the day watch out for each other because it is just a game. Please remember this the next time you are watching professional sports

basketball 2010 part two
From the time I was little I always wanted to knoww what it felt like to be on a school team for my school. That has not happend since sizth grade but flash forad to last year. Mr C bailed on the soccer team ( but we are still great friends ). I dicieded I would bite the bullet and ask coach G if I could help out. I had perepared my slef by saying there was a 99% percent chabce the coach would say no and a ONE PERCENT CHANCE THAT SHEE WOULD say yes. Ms G said yes and I became a ball kid for the varsity basketball team. I had to be in charge of the balls at the home games and got to sit on the bench and shake hands after the game. I got to be a manger on the basketball team and although I never suited up to play in the game I was apart of the team.

A coach who premotes inclusion
I am soo lucky that I have a coach who truly believes that anyone can play and support there school. This year golf had a a lot of new comers so I thought I was history. GO is not cutting anyone but for finical reasons he is not going to take everyone out for matches or practice on the course. Go has a good heart he knows about my changes but is willing to do all he can to help me learn the game that he loves. A lot of coaches have cut me but not GO. I am thinking of writing a poem to him explain how he has helped be belong but that will have to come latter.

golf is gone gone gone
Friday night my golf team had a end of the year party at nicks pizza. I went to this instead of a Dr appointment as was really glad I went. It turns out one of th golfers knew the people at the pallor and got the space for free. I had so much fun playing video games eating pizza listening to the gals talk after inhaling helium from the balloons (Its really funny) and with help I was able to do it too playing football and surpisesing K a senior who was team captain and will be off in Collage next year. (We will miss you K come back and visit) I had a lot of fun this season and can't wait for next season. Coach G O was really patient. Any coach needs that when teaching me a new sport and I gave him a lot of hugs during the season. He told me that despite the fact I don't have him in pe he will make a point to stay in contact with me and might be a Unified parter for me this summer in SO golf. If I get premisson from the team I might post pics online and might make a montage.
