The slick dirt pulling my back end around I move my hands, my automatic controls, the only thing keeping me from spinning out. It’s funny really because clichés aren’t my thing, however, at times idioms are just the thing to describe a situation or time period in one’s life, for instance the saying that “life is a roller coaster” couldn’t be…
There are more than 5 different sports in the world. Everyone loves one or two sports, but I only love one sport, and that is soccer. For me, soccer is the best sport in the world for several reasons. When I was 3 years old my mother bought me a soccer ball. She said to me this ball should be my best friend. I carried this ball everywhere. At four years old I decided to play for a U-5 club that’s called F.C fleshcanne in Haiti. I played as a defender and this is where I started to love…
