Prompt: Elaborate on one of your extracurricular activities
As my final track season nears, I keep daydreaming about my Senior Night - the party at the end of the season where the team shows their appreciation for the seniors. It's tradition for each senior to give a mini impromptu speech, but I can't stop mentally preparing mine early. I'm scared that if I think on the spot, the words won't come out right. I can't afford for that to happen, because I need my teammates to know what they mean to me. I need them to know that practicing alongside them has taught me about passion and endurance. I need them to know that representing them at important meets has given me invaluable experience in performing under extreme pressure. Most importantly, I need to thank them for showing me how it feels to belong - for loving and accepting me when I needed it most. I need to let them know that they've taught me the importance of a strong community. I need them to know that I love them, and that I'll always be there for them. Once a family, always a family.
Any comments are appreciated!
