During my first year of high school，I was a skinny boy who weighed just 55 kg.I dreamed of being a football star.I played a little bit，but spent most of my time on the bench.Over that summer，I found a special diet that bodybuilders used to bulk up （增重）.Drinking a lot of whole milk and lifting weights every day added an extra 11 kg of muscle （肌肉）on my body.
By the time the football season started，I felt ready.I was soon disappointed，though，when I saw that I was still smaller and slower than most of the other boys.I found myself on the bench again.
That was to change during one of our first games of the season.We had built up a lead （领先） and the coach felt secure enough to send me in for a while to play halfback （前卫）.I was so excited.
On the very first play，I met with challenges.When the quarterback （四分卫） handed the ball off to me，I thought it was my time to show off.However，I was soon hit by three of the other team's players.They hit me hard to the ground.I got up and walked off the field，back to the bench.
Over the years，I had lost count of how many times I had dreamed of achieving something，only to find that the world had other plans.I hated this for a long time.It was not until I became a football commentator （评论员） that I finally realized that maybe the world's plans for me were better than my own.
