It's the day that every single neighbor and village is depending on. It is that day, organized and discussed by the coach and the team players to end this match with a remarkable result. It is that determination that the School's most recognized and most heard-of-kind of a team in the History of California. And that team is called "Mighty Wolves of CHS".

"Good morning California. This is the day for Victory against our enemy. May today we cheer with all our might and choose Win over failure. Yesss!" That was my quick prayer and a wake-up motivation for the most important match in the streets of California. Waking up with such great energy, knowing that the match will be the whole afternoon, starting at 10 am, this will be a tough one. So handing quickly to the shower, choose my sport outfit for today, brushed, combed, and put some perfume upon me. Ran quickly with a backpack with my cellphone, water bottle, and extra clothes, just in case it gets wet.
As I arrived downstairs, finding my parents and brothers all dressed up and excited, my mother came and said, "Good morning my angel, it sure is a good day for a special match and a day to spend outside. I have already prepared some small lunches and snacks that you and your brother can pack in your backpack while for your dad and me, I have done something different, okay honey!" After nodding, I get a quick hug and smile from my brother Lucas, saying, "His big sister, I can see you are happy today. I am so glad I get to be in a real local match like this one. I hope your guy makes his team win today." You know, having such an opinion like that from your small sibling can boil your onions! But anyway, what else can we do, huh? Anyway, moving along, since I decided to go with my girls to the game, I am just waiting for a phone call or message to pop up.
Within five minutes, I received a WhatsApp text from Daphne saying that they have arrived at my house. So I quickly grabbed my bag and said goodbye to my parents, knowing that I will see them there by the stadium later on. I have entered and sat by the front seat of Bethany's car and was greeted with hugs and smiles. And we were off.

"A way to start the morning is by doing a quick prayer and wishing for a big moment like this on the book of memories. This is one of the biggest matches for me, as I am growing and learning with the team and the big boss himself, Coach Ratchet. He has seen potential since day 1 and has supported and encouraged me ever since. I am super grateful and honored to be on this team, together with the support from my family and friends, I would not have gotten where I am right now. Well, that was deep. Let me wrap it up for you a little further. I woke up early and left the house early too. Because the coach insisted on doing the morning routine is a good way to start before a big event like this happens today. So arriving together with Kevin, Thompson, Jake, and Steven on my truck, we were just talking and pumped up for this big game.
After an hour of driving to the Stadium, I have parked and got out of my truck and took my sports luggage, and walked together with my buddies. I sent Michaela a text, saying, "Good morning, I cannot wait to see you by the stadium today and support me. I love you. See you soon. Xoxo"
As the Stadium was getting filled by lots of people from the streets of California, it was sure it will be a glorified day. The Stadium is filed by the Media group, like the Daily News, the entertainment companies, and sport television sponsors. And as for the fans for these two major teams, both local also in California but also originally, from Korea, came to support them with big flags and colors.
A few more minutes until the referee blows the whistle and as the two players are preparing themselves on their positions, ready to start the heat. And.... the referee blows the whistle and the game starts with Mike's fingers pushing away the ball away from the opponent for his team to proceed. And now, with Steven dribbling the ball, passing to one another, and then lastly, ending with a clean shot of 3 points, is Michael Washington. The crowd goes wild! Jumping and cheering on until it went silent once again.

"I am so proud of Mike. What a great shot from the outside circle. Let me tell you something, I was not the only one shouting the most, it was other people who did not even know him. So basically, it was the whole stadium. Now about the seats, I and my friends are not so far from the player's benches. So you can say like three rows up. In the first row, is me, Daphne, Gabby, Stephanie, together with Gabby's parents beside her and Stephanie. As for my parents and Mike's, they are seated one row above us, together with our brother's and sister's." Knowing that this game means a lot to Mike, I have been seeing him on how many times he works super hard to be the best captain and build himself through the Coach and his fellow players, so watching him play like he doesn't seek for failure, makes me happy and proud.
~Inner prayer for Mike~
Heavenly Father, I bring Michael Washington towards you, let him know that you are always with through h the huge support from family and friends. He has come a long way and he has given you his determination and the hours of practicing, entering, and staying faithful amongst his Coach and fellow teammates. Help him and be with Him throughout his journey until he can rest and enjoy it with your Glory and Mercy every day of his life.
Okay! Part 2 will be Better! Enjoy and give a Thumps Up♥
