Sports I’ve Never Tried and Why
I have never been a particularly athletic girl. I’ve always wanted to but there just seems to always be a good reason that I don’t try certain sports and games.
Here is a look at some of the games that I’ve wanted to try in the past but convinced myself not to:
- Airsoft. This is shooting game in which you use an airsoft gun (like an echo1 airsoft or a tokyo marui) to battle other players on a field. You don’t get hurt, of course, but I never tried it because I’m afraid of guns.
- Acrobatics. There are acrobatics classes in my area and I keep thinking that I’m going to take them but the idea of trying to let go of a flying trapeze is so terrifying that I can’t even convince myself to go ahead and sign up for the classes.
- Roller derby. I have friends who are involved in roller derby and it looks like a lot of fun. However, these are mostly big girls and they get really aggressive with each other. Since I’m petite, I’m afraid that I would end up getting hurt.
- Kickboxing. I would like to do martial arts but I’m afraid of the actual physical activity of hitting and being hit.
I guess what it boils down to is that I’d like to be more athletic but I’m just plain afraid of too many things!
