MY DREAM JOB. My dream 1) job would be becoming a professional baseball player. I grew up
playing little
league baseball. I was never the best player on the team; yet, playing baseball was
something
would look forward to doing every day and just have fun doing it. I haven't played
baseball for
the last four years. I really miss the times when I would just have that happy feeling
when my
dad would drive up to the park, when I would get a base hit, when I would catch a fly ball,
or just
the fact that I was a part of a team.
So many baseball players these days take their jobs for granted. Many play baseball not
just because they are good at it, but because of the money. Alex Rodriguez signed a
$252
million 2) contract for the Texas Rangers in 2000. Anybody in the entire world would
love to be in his shoes. After all, what would you do with $252 million? For myself, I
would love to be in
Alex Rodriguez's shoes, not because of the money, not because of the fame, but
because if I
were in his shoes, I would just treasure every moment of every second that I am on the
field.
I would feel like the luckiest person alive every time I am reminded that I am living the
dream, a dream that many people like myself would die to get the chance to do.
