This year I have experienced a lot failure, especially in sports. When I tried out for the volleyball team, I did not expect to get in. I was worse than how I play today, and making it in was a surprise filled with excitement and doubt. In return, I got yelled at for messing up, whether it was not getting a ball or not getting my serve over. This made me feel horrible, like I was failing everyone on my team, my parents, and coach, which I was, but I learned from it. I took it as constructive criticism, which I'm sure it was, and I put in more effort. I wish I would've put in more effort during the season because now that it's over I wish I would've done more. This taught me to give it my all since the very beginning, and to not take things for granted. I got better at serving, receiving, hitting, and moving around more. I wish I could apologize to my team, as in everybody together at the same time, and also apologize to my coach and parents who were there to see me mess up but still support me. I truly am sorry.
