First of all being a part of a soccer team is something positive to be a part of. It gives you a group to belong to.

Sitting at the top of the league were Juventus Y, they had not lost a single game, nor tied one. They were guaranteed to win the league and were thought to be undefeatable. Most players later went on to become the core of Team Alberta. Victoria, the club I…

When examining popular culture in society, it’s safe to say that it pervades a person’s life in different manners with different effects. In America, popular culture can be used as an outlet for assimilation and integration into society, especially by immigrants who are just arriving to this country. This is evident through my parents, who arrived from both Colombia and Peru in the 1980s, having no knowledge of what American culture nor American popular culture was. Throughout the last 20 years,…

“And the ones who are on the team are Katie, Ava, Ella, Lily, Emma, Bella, Ashley, Nicole, Jenna, Maddie, and Olivia.”. I remember it like it was yesterday. It was the best day, it was the most amazing day. It was the day that I, Olivia Davis, made the varsity soccer team. I was so excited! "Yes, I did it!" I yelled out in my head. I had worked so hard for this. The other girls were the best in the school, and I was on their team! I was as happy as a clam. I was on top of the world. Then,…
