be better at tennis

I’m 6th doubles on JV, and I’ve already been taking lessons for about two years. :( Hopefully I’ll get up to 3rd or 4th doubles by next year’s season!

i used to be horrible at tennis. i’m not kidding. when i was little, i was one of those kids who would swing but miss every time, one of thise kids who people felt bad for. but i loved tennis. a friend told me recently that when we were in sixth grade and we played tennis in school, apparently i said, “i love tennis. i want to be a famous tennis player!” and when i ssaid that everyone sort of looked at me weirdly, because i was so bad. now i’m in ninth grade, and i am a lot better at tennis! this year i made the varsity team at my school and had a winning record! so if anyone’s out there reading this, i just want you to know that anyone can get better at something. i did!
