than visit a city I had not been to. I had to take a trip to Texas for my nephew’s high school graduation, so I decided to come a few days earlier to visit Austin. I chose Austin because I heard it was a very vegan-friendly city and I was also curious to experience a blue city in a red state. As a teenager, I attended high school in San Antonio, Texas for a couple of years and despised it, therefore, I hoped Austin would alter my perspective of Texas.

Three weeks before school was due to start I booked my flight to return to Texas. Mom, Lester, Imani, Shay, and Johaly were sad to see me leave, but I had to get back into the swing of things and get all of this partying out of my system. Lester offered to take me to the airport, but I declined and let Shay take me instead. I knew that Lester taking me wouldn’t be a good idea because of what had happened between the two of us.

After a few trips, my student started seeing the big picture and started excelling, or so I thought. At a company terminal in south Texas, we were afforded an opportunity to pick our next load. I always told my students that when I thought they were ready, they could pick their next load if possible, and then all activity concerning that load was on them to complete.

We were all set up on the field ready for the game, I remember closing my eyes forabout a minute before the game started, that minute felt like 10 years, I froze and thought aboutmyself when I was 3 years old and how I first fell in love with the game and how my ultimatedream was to become pro, I remember the hours of pain and suffering I put myself through tobecome the player I was today, I remembered waking up at 4 a.m. on school mornings to go forruns so that I could run longer in games,I remember skipping parties and hanging with friendsso that I could train, I remembered everything, but one thing truly hit me was how much soccerwas there for me growing up my parents argued a lot and when I was feeling sad and lonely Iwould go train at the fields and it would hell my sorrow. Growing up in a household when yourparents are constantly fighting is difficult, but soccer was my out lit it was my therapist. Duringthe time of their divorce I felt like I had no one but soccer so I decided I need to give back to thegame. Soccer did so much for me, so I wanted to prove to it that it wasn't a waste of time andthat I would make something out of the game. I opened my eyes and didn't feel human anymore Ididn't feel in control of my own body the sport had taken over me for the better.

That was all my fault I got distracted and it's gonna be my fault if we're going to lose the biggest game of our lives!! I thought in my mind if we were gonna win, I'd have to be twice as determined than I had been at any other game. Not one ball could get through me not even one. Half time was now over. I go on the field along with my other teammates. The whole time during the game not one ball got through me and I was feeling good. Finally, the moment of truth came. Anna, our forward, had the ball and in what seemed like two seconds she scored. 2 to 1! We won the game!!! Parents are cheering from the bleachers. Although there were still 2 minutes on the clock the other team had already given up. They were just trying to get past Julia, who wouldn't even let them past the defense line. At last the whistle sounded, the game was over, and we got our
