  It was a usual shiny day when city girls football championship began. We had to play one of the first matches. I was in the High School's football team and I worried a lot because I have never played such an important game when a lot of poeple watched it. This game meant everything to me because I always was interested in football.

 When the first forty-five minutes finished and I replaced one girl who could not play well. When the second half of the game started, my heart began to beat fast and i felt something strange deep inside that forced me to make a wrong pas. However, during those forty-five minutes I ran like a wild animal. In the end of the game I felt a severe pain on the right side of my stomach. It was the beginning of the trouble, which made that day the saddest day of my life.

 When I went to hospital, the doctor said that the problem was the gall baldder and the liver. He added that my  sport and hard work was dangerous and told me not to eat fatty products. Besides, he said that I had better take one course of treatment in the hospital that would last about three weeks, but I immediately ignored his advice because I did not want to miss the classes that were very important since it was my final year at the school.

 After that I felt myself as if my hands were tied. I bacame frustrated, depressed and angry. Probably it's the reason I seemed to behave rudely, most of my friends thought  I was selfish and did not care.

  Although my illness lasted for six months, I discovered a lot of importants things which make life more interesting. I understood the value of being fit and healthy and that life is beautiful even though sometimes we face obstacles on our way to happiness that might seem almost insurmountable.

Posted by Rover 2008-03-29 08:34:25 .... I hope this is not a true story... Speaking strictly of story telling, this could be improved by making it a bit longer, adding details, sensations, anecdotes (maybe some exemple of behavior when the character was depressed?) It seems very well written to me, and looks like one of these philosophical tales, with a moral in the end...maybe that was your purpose? + Report this comment
