Sports

Sports in my life. Where to begin? First of all, I am not that great at sports. The first two sports I learned to play were basketball and ping pong. Yes, ping pong. All Chinese people love ping pong. I do not know why I chose basketball though.... I played on my grade school's team for a few years and I would play at the neighborhood park once in a while. My shooting was decent and so were my free throws, but that's about it. No defense, no dribbling, no speed. Probably should have gotten myself an ankle protector too...... Anyways, I had better luck with ping pong, but I was never on a team. I only played at some Chinese club in Chinatown. I was pretty good, at least compared to those amateurs.
Somewhere along the way, I learned to swim. Again, I didn't join a team for it but I really enjoyed swimming. I would go to the neighborhood park with friends and race against them. Good times.
So I continued with those sports until high school came. I tried playing tennis with some of my friends and I kind of liked it, even though I did not know the correct forms for hitting the ball. I decided to join the team along with a few of my friends and I pretty much grew into it, learning to hit and serve ball and the different styles that can be used. Tennis is my favorite sport now and probably the one that I am best at.
