The biggest mistake I ever made was…oh this is kinda difficult. Hmmmmmm I’m I history and really bored because he just talks and talks and talks and never stops! I think the biggest mistake I ever made was that I quit softball in the middle of my senior year because my high school coach told me I had no chance of making the team. Now, I know what you’re thinking “she probably wasn’t that good.” But I played competitive softball team on the travel team Phoenix and also the Ohio Classics. Both teams I was on went to nationals every summer and my Phoenix team won nationals in 2008 at the Pony nationals. So, I’m not sure, but I’m pretty sure I was pretty talented on the field. I also started as catcher my freshman year on the varsity team (the year we made it to districts). So I’d have to say I wasn’t horrible. But my sophomore year, the old coach retired and a young, bitchy coach (Jeanette) began coaching and she had her favorites who she had coached on her own travel team. So basically, she hated me because I didn’t play for her own travel team my whole life and she had already made up her own team before try-outs even began. The reason why I finally quit was because at try-outs, she pulled me aside and said “don’t even bother trying out, because you won’t make it.” So why would I waste anymore of my time? I quit and regret that decision everyday. I know I could start again if I wanted, but I just have no time. School literally takes up all of my time and it’s more important to me. Although school is important, it doesn’t stop the whole in my heart that softball used to fill. I really miss playing, but I just don’t feel like I could go back. Well anyways, that’s my biggest mistake.
