My Soccer Tournament
By: Nandini
This weekend, I had a D2 Cup. My team, Surefire is a very cooperative team. We get a lot done and still have fun! We got first place in the whole entire district but, we won second place in the D2 tournament. We played four games and I played up to my potential for every game except the third game. The thing was that I was really sick for that game. At least I didn’t let any goals in.
The thing that splits competitive soccer teams apart is the “classes.” There is class one and class three (class one is better). My team is in class three but, next season we will be going into a class one team. We played against class one players so, it was a good accomplishment for our team. I saw many of the players in my old team which brought back memories. Sad ones and happy ones. Then, I got back to Earth and started focusing on the game!
Overall, my coach is very proud of us and he congratulates us for the work we put in to make our ranking so high. Next time, we plan working harder but, we still aren’t disappointed since we were the “underdogs” as our coach said.

If you were the president of the United States like Barack Obama what would you do? If I was president of the United States I would help to support education by giving money to schools all around the nation. Also, I wouldn’t let any government official to take the money away from schools to fix the economy.
Next, I would try to get all the soldiers fighting in Afghanistan, Iraq and South Korea back home because we are putting to many soldier’s lives in danger. In addition, there are other ways of dealing with different countries rather than going to war with them. I would try to make peace with other countries so we won’t get in to any wars.
Also, right now we are in an economy crisis. If I were president I would fix the economy by launching another 800 billion recovery package to get more money into people’s pay check and so businesses can stop laying off more people and people can buy more from stores so businesses wouldn’t shut down.
One more thing I would try to do is to build more homeless shelters so homeless people will have a place to stay. That’s what I would do if I were the president of the United States. What would you do if you were president of the United States?

Summer is approaching and school will end. Half of our class will leave to middle school. And we will have more time to do chores! That's enough with the terrible thoughts. I will now start the good news. You probably have some great plans for the summer. I think summer time is the best part of the year because it is the only time of the year you get to relax and do what ever you want. I'm going to the Sierra Nevada to climb some mountains with my friend. We have a family cabin that we share with our relatives. There is a stream that runs near it and we like to make dams there. If you have nothing to do, you'd better have some good relaxing plans. What are you going to do over the summer?

Do any of you have a favorite sport? Well, my favorite sport is swimming! I started swimming when I was pretty young. I used to go to DACA and my dad used to get in the pool with me. I still remember that I didn't really like swimming that time. As I grew older I continued to go to DACA maybe till I was six or seven years old. I liked then as I actually knew the strokes and could swim well. I stopped because we were going to India for a vacation.
After we came back I kept on asking my parents if they could put me in swimming classes again. Then they finally put me in swimming classes. As our whole family was a member in YMCA and they had swimming classes there, my dad joined me in there. I still go there right now. The days I go are Tuesday and Thursday each week. My class is 45 minutes long. Now I like YMCA better than DACA classes. After each session ends I get to know what level I am in then my mom enrolls me again.
What is your favorite sport and when did you start it? Do you take classes for it?
