__Writing Sparks-Something that is especially important to you__

Something special are my cool rocks that my grandparents give me. The reason why it's special is because if they died, I will remember them. Going to the flyers game One day my uncle, my dad, and I went to a flyers game vs. the New York Islanders at the Wells Fargo center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. When we got there we went into the fan gear but we didn’t find anything so we went to our seats and we looked at the scoreboard but there was 13 minutes till the game started so my dad shouted ‘’why don’t we get food’’. So they got cheese steaks and I got orange, black, and white Flyers silly bands. And when the game started Daniel Carcilo took the first shot of the game and it almost went in. But then like 10 minutes later in the first period James Van Riemsdyk scored and everyone got out of their seats and cheered. Then it was 1-0 Flyers. After that like 5 minutes later in the first period Jeff Carter scored. Now it was 2-0 Flyers. Then a minute later in the first period Jeff Carter scored again on a deflection to make it 3-0 Flyers. Later the Islanders guy scored in the third period to make it 3-1. Then 19 minutes later in the third period the game was over. The Philadelphia Flyers won 3-1 over the New York Islanders. That’s a day when I spent time with my dad and my uncle.  The end. Two years ago, when I played my first season of soccer, we were looking for our first win. The teams were Dark green v.s Light Green. I was on the Light Green team with my friend Tyler and my friend Ben and Austin were on the Dark Green team. When the game started they shot the ball and it went in, but the referee said that Ben hit it with his arm. It went to the other player on the team and it went in because he shot it. But the referee said ‘no goal’. So now it was still 0-0. Later I had the ball and I was charging down the field with it then when I got close to the net I shot it and it went in. Everyone started cheering so loud my ears almost fell off. Then we were winning 1-0. But after that it was halftime. Light Green 1 Dark Green 0. It was 1-0. So when halftime was over coach put me in goal for the rest of the game. So it was still when there was 10 seconds left. The Dark Green player had the ball and he was on a breakaway sprinting down the field with the ball. I heard the crowd count 5,4,3,2 he took the shot and I blocked it. It went off the post and out and I grabbed it. Then the crowd shouted 1,0 and the game was over. Everybody got off the floor and tackled me. It was our first win of the year. Light Green won, 1-0. So after the game was over we went to go shake hands and say good game. That is the first time I won a soccer game in my career of playing soccer. The End
