Re: Tennis Tryouts
they look for eagerness, agility, your overall ability to play the game, sportsmanship, stuff like that
Imagine:
To stand on top of the highest cliff.
To feel the wind tearing at my clothes, the elements.
Looking down into oblivion and voidness.
The ground far, far away as it seems from here, but in reality only a couple of seconds away.
Standing there.
Feeling a decision in a prefabricated existence.
To draw the final breath,
To make that little step,
To know, that for once a decision was made,
To feel one foot above the abyss,
To think for a split second you can float in the air
To feel losing balance,
To fall,
To feel the cold wind violently caress you,
To see the ground coming closer,
Then to doubt
To wish yourself back to the top of the peak
the one that you are pacing away from.
Only to perish, knowing you cannot turn back

Duude. My parents are sending me to some stupid tennis thing, too. I put up the biggest fight. But they still are making me go. Tennis is such a freakish sport.

Re: Tennis Tryouts
OKay well I went to tennis practice yesterday and we got paired up with experienced players. They kept hitting it to fast and I got really frustrated when I couldn't understand what they were trying to say. Then we had to run and do all these exercises. And come back and play for 2 more hours. It felt like forever. I missed a zillion balls that day. I was soo tired because the sun was blazing!! After coach let us go I barely made it across the parking lot to my car.
But I woke up today and decided that I would not quit just yet and so I went back and I did a lot better I guess. I actually won a few games lol! I don't know how long I can do this though. .....
