Boxing by Wikipedia from en.wikipedia.org. CC
Two weeks ago, on Tuesday, I went boxing for the first time. At first I was very nervous, but 15 minutes later I was starting to have fun and not be nervous. At the end of practice, one of the coaches told me, "You know, for a starter you are very good." When he said that, I got very motivated to start boxing. Thanks to him, I am still boxing.

When I was about 4 years old, I played soccer for the first time. I did not like playing soccer, but then my dad told me that if I play and win several times, I would win a trophy saying I'm a champion. He knew I have always wanted a trophy to show my family that I am a champion. With my first team we did not win a lot. In my second team, we did not win at all. With my third team, that was a different story. We won the championship game several times. To this day, thanks to my dad, I still play soccer.
