Personal Essay Example: My Favorite Physical Activity

Boom! The bat slapped the ball, running as fast as I can to first base trying to not get an out. Softball is my favorite physical activity because I get to be with my friends, play with other people, and travel a lot. Softball is a really a competitive and painful sport. All of the practicing and games you have to go to get tiring. Also it's a fun thing to do if you don't have anything else to do.

To begin with, When I was little I always wanted to play softball. I used to watch college girls play and that made me wanna play, it looked like a fun thing to do. I played t-ball until I got older and played actual softball. I got really good and my team won a lot of games. I was always excited to go to practice and play at my games. 

Next, When I got older nothing changed, I still loved playing softball. Playing softball really helped me be more friendly towards other people. For example, if I were warming up and a ball rolled from the other team, I would get that ball and throw it to them. I meet new people everytime I go to games and I make new friends. I like to help people play. If there's a team below us I like to give them advice or what to do next time if they do something wrong. 

To end with, I encourage people to try new sports, and most of the time it's softball. I like meeting new people, being with my friends, and helping kids. I hope I get better at softball and be able to play in college. I started when I was really young and now I'm playing in junior high. I feel really happy when I'm playing softball.
