Sports
Sports have always been such a big part of my life. It is a big reason why I want to have a career in athletic training instead of physical therapy. I would rather be taking care of people closer to the field/court, etc. rather than inside an office. I played plenty of sports up until high school. When I was younger I tried just about every sport to see what I was interested in. I took part in figure skating, ice hockey, gymnastics, soccer, basketball, and softball. In high school I focused on the three I was interested in the most. For Hopkinton High School I played soccer, basketball and softball. The one I loved the most was softball. I have always enjoyed playing every part of the sport. I miss playing sports a lot but I also miss being part of a team. I don't know how I would have made it through high school without playing a sport every season. It was always such a good way to take your mind off of school work.
My favorite sport to watch is baseball and it makes sense that my favorite player is Dustin Pedroia. I admire him for always giving 110% and shocking people since everyone underestimated him from the begining due to his size.
