To catch a wave, to stand up - it was just life-changing. There was nothing that even came close. I quit playing all other sports - by the time I was eleven, they were toast.
My position in the army is as sport instructor. This allows me generous time off for travel and competition. I also receive a monthly salary from the army.
I'm a runner from sports. I've been a runner, but I wasn't a cross-country runner or anything like that. I played a lot of soccer growing up.
You need to work very hard, you have to spend a lot of time practicing your sport - six to seven hours daily.
More than any other major sport, professional or amateur, college football games are decided by the physical incompetence and downright chokery of their players.
There aren't a lot of opportunities for that rite of passage that makes you a man. War is one of them, and violent sports are another.

All I can ask from society is that it please stop telling me why I should like sports.
I love my homeland, but it's an absurd country. Politics in the Philippines is like spectator sports!
I love figure skating and what I am able to express creatively. I want to leave a legacy in the sport.
Who cares if your outfit is black and you're sporting a brown belt? Wear it, rock it, love it - and others will, too. Nothing beats a belt.
