Today we went to the bowling ally to help with the special olympics. At first I was kind of nervous and then when I found out that we each had four people I got even more nervous. At the beginning I was quite but later on I got comfortable around them. All the guys in my group were really funny ,especially one man named Chip, I just had to relax and talk to them. It was amazing to see them just bowl and have fun and they were actually really good at bowling some of them bowled better than I can. One man named Richard got three strikes in a row and a whole lot of spares.
I really felt like I was making a difference in their day by just giving them a compliment and talking to them. I really felt good when I gave them compliments especially Richard who would always get a huge smile on his face when I told him that he was doing a great job. Also whenever I would clap for Chip he would smile and clap to. I also felt bad because I complain a lot but I havn't had life as hard as these guys. Throughout the day I had a ton of fun and I really wish that we could go back and help again or just be able to see and talk to the guys in my group again and go talk to the other people in Special olympics.
Great job Ethan!
