Team Meeting
How good it felt to get out of a tiring, hard, swim practice. My heart was still pounding when I got out of the cold, brisk water with a smile on my face. Knowing that I had just completed my first varsity practice, I would have something to brag about to my friends and family. I glanced across the dark pool area as all the tall, muscular girls proceeded to get out of the water. Being only a freshman, it was a great honor for myself to be among these talented teens. As I proudly walked across the slippery deck, our team captain called out for a varsity meeting. I figured I would stroll over there, since I did complete a full practice on varsity and I figured I worked just as hard as the upperclassmen. I walked with great stride towards the captain knowing I was one of only two freshmen practicing with varsity.

I had never noticed these two girls practicing with us before. In my point of view, they did not deserve to attend the party if they did not work as hard as my varsity and me team members. Why would they attempt to get rewarded for not working as hard as the rest of us? I did not think that they deserved to attend this party. "Varsity, we are going to have a team party," I said as loud as I could, so everyone could hear me. I made sure I glanced at every single one of my team members to see their surprised faces. They all began to smile. It felt remarkable to bring a smile to my fellow friends. "Umm, you guys are on varsity," she said in a questioning tone.
