Tomorrow is the away game for our football team, who are getting ready to play the wittle scary warriors. Guess what? I am PUMPED! For some reason this year, I have actually been getting excited for these kinds of games. Not just the looking forward to wearing that one boys jersey, or to get all dressed up to go and just socialize with my friends; I am actually going to WATCH THE GAME.
In previous years, football games were a "whatever" to me. I would go and just sit there, trying to get in conversations and deal with drama and not even remember if we won or not. It seemed pointless to me, you know? I didn't think I ever needed to pay attention to these silly games, with there big buff players and their killings on the field. I also never understood the game to start off with. Of course my dad had tried numerous times to teach me and help me understand it all, but it just never clicked. This year, though, something did.
It was the beginning of the season and I was so ready to go to the game and cheer on the team, for the most part. At that time, I was still in the mode of not even paying attention but I was still excited to go to the game; then I found out I had to work. I was so upset! We ended up losing, but we still had the whole season to go and I decided to make a promise that I would try and go to every game. So with that promise, I went to the next game and we WON! That game was the turning point in my football career (watching, that is)
I know a lot more people on the football team this year, so watching it kind of felt like something I should do; like I owe them my attention. So the next game that I went to, me and my friend started watching the game, screaming when we had a run or screaming if there was a fumble. Every little thing started to come into place and now I can't even pay attention to my friends because I am so into the whole thing. Sure, I still chat with them, but the games my first priority. That is why I can't wait to go tomorrow. It is there homecoming game, and I am sure they are all excited. Of course they want to kill us out there, but I don't know how well that is going to play out. Let’s just say, it is going to be interesting :)
