Personal Narrative Essay: The Game Of Paintball

PAINTBALL MANIAC

One day, I was driving to PAINTBALL. I was so excited. I love paintball, I love it because I like the thrill. I like having to get shot when you fail. I love the sound it makes when it fires, it gives you a sense of freedom or full control of things. I love to shoot people and claim to my team

“THEY ARE OUT OF HERE!”, because when I shoot someone I shoot them 5 times to ensure they're OUT. Another a reason is i'm really good at it. I rarely get shot and most of the time its friendly fire. One time the game ended and my best friend decided to light me up with paintball from 10 feet away. It hurt a lot. Today i’m going with that same best friend (which cannot be named). He is pretty good at paintball.

Once we got there we geared up. I brought Camo gear, my pod harness and filled pods because i'm serious about paintball. On the other hand, my best friend was wearing a neon blue short sleeve outfit. He once we filled up our air and ammo we went to a field. I asked the ref to put us in a harder match. We went to field six and there were all adults. They were laughing at me. But soon I knew that I would have the last laugh. We split up in teams and the match begin.

    Like all children all I ever wanted was to be big and do big people things. I engaged in a few family members that I would look up to and try everything they did. I use to pretend to go grocery shopping and being a parent at times. At the age of eight, I had worn the worst pain ever and that was watching my five, year old brother getting hit by a car while trying to cross the street riding a bicycle that had a loose chain. I remember him trying to get up and get to me, but a few adults that had witnessed the accident had told him to lay down.…

I have been here before, and each time the visits have been very uncomfortable. I love nothing more than to step on the ball field, and smell the fresh cut grass, and my kangaroo skin catchers glove. This ball field was different, for many different reasons. Playing baseball against Mountain Valley was always fun, because we always won.…

When I was younger and got my first opportunity to stand up for myself without anyone pushing me to succeed things didn't go as planned.
