Action – Football Tryouts

During the first semester, I was looking forward to playing football again for the first time in four years. I had been actively engaged in ISK’s football team in Middle School. However, during my stay at a summer skateboarding camp, I managed to permanently damage my ankle. This led to my ankle being extra sensitive to injuries which led to my continuous absence during ISK’s football seasons. After four years of recovering, I was confident to be able to play again. I attended the football tryouts to see whether I was still as capable of playing. Everything was going extremely well, I found that I was still able to play and was not falling behind the other players. However, nearing the end of tryouts, I performed a slide tackle. Upon standing up, I realized that I had twisted my right ankle, preventing me from being able to walk. I fell and Mr Lotze came to my aid. Rather than being in pain, I found that I was disappointed that I may never recover. Therefore, I was unable to join the team. Nevertheless, I loved playing in the tryouts and found that I was still a capable player. My friends were happy to see me there for the first time in four years.

Service - ISK PTO Picnic

During the first semester, Artsco had organized the annual ISK picnic. Assistance was required from the seniors in order to maintain the various activities which took place during the day. This includes multiple food stands selling cake, hotdogs, burgers, and cuisine. Other games and activities were also present including shave the balloon, face painting, and hannah. Together with Namin, I decided to maintain the hannah stand for a certain time period. Two people had been hired prior to the event to do the hannah. However, they were significantly late to the event which caused various people to start worrying. Nevertheless, thirty minutes later, they arrived. I maintained the stand and the hannah payments for my shift. Once my shift was over, I was assigned by Ms. Bock to help out at the hotdog stands. There we made hotdogs and maintained the payments for a duration of time. Overall, the PTO picnic was a success as there was a great turn-up for the day.meeting with our advisors such as Ms. Bock and the students leading the event such as Bersi. This aided in keeping everyone up to date about the current standings of various occurrences such as the the Hannah tardiness.
