Today I feel like writting about the word fun! Fun is a great word, fun could go along with many things. Like sports I find the sports that I do fun. For example, I ski (for fun), Irish Dance and play rugby. Every year our family goes to Big Sky Montana with a bunch of other families who have kids my age as well as my sisters. Its a georgeous place especially when you go up to the peak the view is breath taking. Anyways I think Big Sky is the funnest place in the world. Because, its beautiful and you get to ski all day and relax and have fun at night. One of the funnest runs in Big Sky is a run called ambush glades it is a black diamond its hard to find because you have to take a certain route through the terrain park in order to get there. But once you get there if you just stop and look it is so cool. The run is inbetween trees filled with mogles and it takes about 10-15 min to ski down it is an exciting work out run. Irish Dance my other sport is so fun to do. One because not a lot of people do it so when your friends come and watch they think its really cool. Secondly, we get to wear these sweet hand embroided dresses made for you that are shipped over from Ireland. And we get to compete all over the world. Another sport I find fun is Rugby. It is so intense and sweet. I love just being able to have an excuse to tackle other girls without getting in trouble. There are many rules to rugby unfortunatley I can only explain a couple. Here are a few of the more important rules. You cannot throw the ball in front of you that is a big no no. You have to throw it to the side or behind you if you throw it in front the sir (aka the ref) will penallize you. In order to score a tri (same thing as a touchdown or goal) is to run to the other teams line past the cones and touch it to the ground if it doesn't touch the ground it doesn't count as a tri. The main goal is to go after the person with the ball and tackle them down until you get it and score as many tries as possible. Basically rugby is just organized fun

There isn't a better word than fun to describe sports. Well, sports other than rugby or skiing or something weird like that... Is irish dancing technically considered a sport? Because that would be cool.
