So whats so bad about being SO-So?

Lisa Wilson Strick is telling us how competitive everything people can be.  Even hobbies she enjoys, like knitting. There is someone else telling her that there are better ways to knit. But Strick always enjoyed doing everything So-So.  .  There is always someone out there that will judge you for wearing improper gear for running. I have always enjoyed arts, such as choir, and three art classes in high school. But I knew that I wasn’t great at it, I still continued doing it, because it kept me centered and relax.  I do enjoy experience something knew often, by finding something exciting to do; maybe ill go sky diving next.

                My friend TK and I were on the volleyball team during senior year of high school. While he was very competitive, I enjoyed learning something new and also gave me a reason to get out the house. TK always wanted to be the top player and always pushing himself to be better than everyone else. That’s why he was the team captain. One day we were going up against Monterey Trail High school volleyball team. Every match in the past they have defeated us, and we were not going to let them destroy us on our home turf. We push ourselves to the limit, running around like craze monkeys trying to keep the ball in play. It went back forth, we would score a point then they would come back and score a few points. TK was exhausted but, still push himself over his limit. I served the ball, other team did their pass and spike the ball. It went straight for me; I nervously pass the ball to the setter. Hoping I didn’t mess up the pass. TK was getting ready to spike the ball, he ran up to the net while the setter set the ball to him, he went with quickness, jump and swung his hardest. While he came back down, he landed on his left ankle.  I knew he could have prevented this if he took a break and relax. But his completive ego push him to a sprang ankle.
