Athletics are a major part of who I am. My entire youth is filled with both organized and unorganized sports. From racing my cousins to early morning basketball games at the local YMCA. My father, and his side of the family are mainly responsible for this love of athletics. Some of them even found a way to allow sports to catapult them into financially successful lives. Though those few were high school and college legends, I have a path of my own that has made me much more than just an athlete.…

After I change into my black and white hyperdunk basketball shoes, it’s time to warm up for the final game, championship. My team strides out in their stylish shoes, assorted shorts, mixed and matched socks and black tanks. We are of various heights, skin color, weight, hair styles and skills. All of us love the game, and despite losing a couple games, we hope to finally win this one. Unfortunately, during warm ups, a lot of shots aimed at the basket aren't going in. The other team in white…

much that this town provided us with, we always loved it and wanted to represent it in many different fields. Cuprija was famous for soccer, running and handball. Another field in which this town was famous was the game that I wrote in my first essay which is the ‘Counter Strike’ video game. No matter how poor and undeveloped Cuprija is, everyone in the country knew about it somehow, whether it was in a good or a bad way. The biggest river in the country, called Velika Morava, passes through…

“Baseball was, is, and always will be to me the best game in the world.” - Babe Ruth My favorite place to be is a baseball field. I am most comfortable when I am playing baseball. There is no more relaxing feeling to me than trotting out to shortstop while the hot, golden brown dirt kicks up from my heels. As soon as I take a step out on the field, I forget everything outside of baseball. Before every game, I warm up by taking ground balls. As simple and meaningless as this sounds, it is one…
