My Other World

Sports change a person not only athletically, but more so mentally. That’s why I love sports more than anything on Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Saturn, and Pluto (which is not a planet anymore). When I play sports I’m in whole different world where I’m the king of the universe, standing on a throne of accomplishments, goals, and dreams in life hoping that I complete those goals and make those dreams come true.

When I’m playing sports I feel no one can beat me nor stop me. I’ve floated into a whole different world where anything that’s impossible I make possible. I feel solitary and independent. I’ve escaped from the island of all troubles in my life. I’m completely free from the world. I get a break from homework and television and do what I do best…play sports! I’m free from my entire life.

When I’m melancholy my coaches cheer me up. My coaches are the most enthusiastic people known to the galaxy. My coaches affect my play when I’m not playing well. My coaches taught me everything I know about sports and I would not be close to the skill level I’m at now without them. I think my favorite coach I’ve ever had is Coach Clemons. Coach Clemons was my first AAU basketball coach. He taught me that size, speed, skill, weight, and athleticism don’t matter. It’s all about will and desire.

When I play soccer and my foot touches the ball, it’s magical. The best is hearing the imaginary crowd roar with jubilance after a goal. I love “losing” and knowing there’s another imaginary game to be played tomorrow. I feel great when I make the most impossible play possible. That’s how I feel when I’m in the backyard playing soccer. Even though I’m not great at soccer I know that if I work at it every day and every night I can be fantastic.


I love playing sports more than anything in the world and hope to play a professional sport when I’m older. I’m going to work as hard as I can to complete that goal. I worship sports more than anything in the galaxy. It’s impossible to love sports more than me even if you say you do. I don’t go inside without literally collapsing because I’ve worked so hard. Even then I know I need to get that one more goal, that one more shot, that one more pass, and that one more touchdown.

Sports are my life no matter how hard they are. Sports keep me going in life and keep me active. If sports didn’t exist then I don’t know what I’d be in life. I hope that throne will just get bigger and bigger.
