last month we had a sports meeting. though the weather wasn't very fine that day, the students were all very excited and the whole school was alive.
this time, i was even more excited. because i went in for the sports meeting and my item was high jump. i didn't want to get any place, i only wanted to enjoy the game because i knew i wasn't good at sports.
when i got to the field with my friend. i was both excited and nervous. when i saw the first height, my heart could hardly heat. how high it was! it was higher than our desks. i couldn't believe my eyes. this was too high for me to jump over. i wasn't nervous at that timewhile i was a bit afraid. but i had gone there, i must have a try.
not long after, the game began. the first person was great. he jumped over easily. i was too surprised to say a word. the second was good, too. the third nearly jumped over, but he wasn't bad…
it was my turn. i had a deep breath and then ran towards. in front of the pole, i began to jump. oh, no! my right foot hit the pole. “i failed.” i thought. and then, another unlucky thing happened. i didn't stand firm and i tumbled. i hurt my back badly. at that moment i felt my back was broken. it was too painful. it seemed that the people around field all didn't know that, they only laughed at my foolish posture. after a very short rest, i stood up.
i push my pain back and then went out of the field with my red face. my friend hurried to come to me. he asked me if this was terrible. i was too pained with my back to answer his questions. i only shook my head. i was sad. not only i had hurt my back but also i couldn't go on in the game. i had to see the others jump and wish them to get a good place.
though i didn't have the whole game. i was still very happy. because a lot of my classmates tried their best in the game and they got a lot of good places. they were all best in my eyes. i was thankful to them for doing their best for our class.
