better at some than others!

When I was five years old, my mother signed me up for tennis classes. 35.

mistake! That was when I started to have a fear of tennis balls. That ended my mother’s dream
of seeing me become a tennis star.

surprise that the practice sessions ended shortly after that.

37. _______________ I tried another sport, netball. It was one of the few that I really
enjoyed playing. I even got selected for the school team at the age of 11. From there on, I spent
hours learning the correct way to pass and catch the ball.

one competition, I tried very hard to block an extremely tall goal shooter. 38. __________ This
defeat made me question if netball was the right sport for me.

week. There were times when I got injured and hurt my ankle during training sessions.
39. ________________I attended all the weekly taekwondo classes and passed all the tests.
