Parallel Play

When playing sports, adversity can come at any moment, yet it was one specific game that made me realize that anything can really happen.

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…

One of my leadership experiences would be mentoring young people to set a goal in life. Setting a goal to the young people I mentor, benefited themselves. These young people were in eighth grade and I taught them that in high school, you need to have a goal in their lives because they needed to look forward to something. The best part about mentoring these eighth graders were seeing their face expressions. Another leadership experience was leading my volleyball team to the championship round on…

Because I did not ignore the other player’s taunts I ended up being suspended for one game in the tournament. I got a red card and couldn’t play in the finals. We won the tournament, but I didn’t play in the championship game. I was so embarrassed, and in a lot of trouble. The next day I talked with my coach.

and thinking deeply about it. As a movie producer, I will create a production starring Denzel Washington and a couple of extras about a man's seven stages of life which is an interpretation of William Shakespeare's "Seven ages of Man" scene in his play "As You.

The audience will be able to captivate…

Vanya And Sonia And Masha And Spike is brilliant in every aspect, the actors were believable and each character related to one another. They elevated…

are people that just enjoy playing the game. There are many group dynamics in play in these pick up games. For example, there are many ways to choose teams in pickup basketball : shooting from free throw line, first five to make the basket forms one team and the next five that make a shot forms the second team. Some of the rules were made by the players themselves: an example of this is in deciding which team gets to play a game. Generally,…

years are supposed to be the most crucial years for establishing a positive approach for learning. Having positive and close relationships with their teachers can make preschoolers more interested and engaged in learning. Relationships with peers also plays an integral in social development. Preschoolers are seen to become prosocial and voluntarily assist people around them. Emotionally, preschoolers develop a sense of competence, conscience and resilience. Social and emotional development…

We have been through rough times in sports, starting with basketball in the first grade, all the way up to sophomore year. Tears have trickled down on me multiple times, whether my wearer was cut from the team or was told he was not strong enough to play. These moments have shaped who my wearer is today. Although those moments are unforgettable and engrained in our minds until the end, the elation and minimal moments of excitement I receive from my wearer will stay with me forever. After a…
