Personal Narrative: My First Football Game

Decent Essays
I woke up in the morning to see "9:17" displayed on my iPhone. I remembered the day before, telling myself that I would wake up early to workout and take ground balls with my brother. I jumped out of bed and ran to my brother, I asked, "What time are we leaving?". We got ready and left at 9:45, I raced to the field, knowing that it would only get hotter as the day went on. We were expecting to see soccer players on the field, but there only happened to be a single player getting lessons. He dribbled through the cones and it seemed like he could control the ball with his mind. Just thinking about his speed and dribbling skills made me start to break a sweat.

As I got stretched out, I felt the heat pounding on my skin, which was very unusual
