Gorillas

While we were watching the Gorillas, I was feeling adrenalin and awe.

At the boys basketball game, against City Academy,  the game was tied. They went into a 4 minute overtime. For a while it was still tied but then Hootie shot 12 free throws in a row and they won. I was the one who was recording the game. I was shaking really bad. When the game was over we all gathered around the team and we screaming the whole time.

When we got back in the vans everyone was in awe about what just happened in 4 minutes. Before that game I was not sure anything like that was ever possible.

Another time, during the winterium thing, We were running our last timed mile. My mile time before was 11:06. I really wanted to beat my time. On my last lap, Jayson told me to look up. Everyone that I was running with was right there ahead of me. I thought for sure that I was going to be the last one when Sophie and Stuart started yelling at me to run as fast as I could. I did not get why they were telling me to run as fast as I could and nobody else that was in front of me. I ran to Jayson and my finishing time was 8:06. Everyone else that was running with me, ran by to finish and I finally figured out why Sophie and Stuart were so enthusiastic about me finishing.
