There have been many things in my life that did not turn out how I thought they would.  Some of the things are positive, while the others are negative.  I bet you wanted to hear a positive thing that turned out unexpectedly,  but I can only think of one negative thing.  Every since i was little, I have been playing softball.  When I was in kindergarten, I was on a team in a tee-ball league.  I was on the Redbirds and our biggest rival were the Cubs.  As I got older, I was on teams in a coach-pitch league and then moved up to kid-pitch.  My first school softball team was at St. Agnes when I was in 6th grade.  I started over 8th graders and I was only in 6th grade! That season was full of memories that makes me miss it.  The summer of 7th grade, my family and I switched to Pleasant Plains.  I went to the tryouts for softball not knowing anyone there.  The first day, I made a bunch of new friends and I made the A team!  Our coach was really tough and I definitely got a workout that season! The girls on my team helped me to adjust to public school and made sure I did not get beat up.  Haha I am just kidding, I did not get beat up!  The following year, i was also on the A team.  Our team was not as good as the year before but we still had fun.  Then came high school softball.  My freshman year softball season was AWESOME.  I was on the JV team along with freshman and a couple of sophomores.  Our JV team grew so close and so many memories it was crazy.  Sadly, last year was horrible.  I had multiple times throughout the season where I wanted to quit because I was not having fun and some of the girls were mean.  I thought it was going to be a fun year but it turned out to be awful.
