The AC Milian

So in the holidays I went to the AC Milan football camp in Wellington. We learnt amazing new skills for me to use in soccer games. Some of the skills we learnt were tackling, how to get passed players, speed ball skills and passing. For lunch we had Italian food I ate it all except for the pasta and risotto which was not nice for me. The coaches were from AC Milan and one of them is called Milan. They were all really nice but hard to understand so we had to listen really good.

Emotive writing

WE started the game and I got the ball. And I was sprinting down the wing and someone caught up to me so had to go fast pace. He went slide tackled me and it felt like I had no legs. I was off for the whole match and I was still lying beside the wing and my mum  pick me up and took me off the pitch and I was still crying off the pitch. And mum took me home.

The music reminded me of a funeral,in the war and a movie.

This is my emotive writing and I had to write about what it feels like to be in something.
