Well hello
there, my name is Sara Kolokotsas. I am 30 years old and if you can not tell
from the name, I'm Greek. Currently I am
working with my parents at their deli. I
know what you are thinking; a Greek family that owns a restaurant, no way. Right now I am in the process of earning my Masters in Social Work. Actually, I have been in school the better part
of my 20's and now into my 30's. If
being a college student could be classified as a job, I would have it nailed
down. I guess you could call me a nerd,
but I see that as a good thing.
I have always
considered my self somewhat of an athlete.
So when I had the opportunity to attend some practices for the Highland
games I was pretty excited. After one
practice my friend talked me into signing up for the Celtober Cowtown Highland
Games. Im not going to lie, I was pretty
nervous.I haven't competed in a serous athletic even since college. And I think people could sense how anxious I
was because they kept telling how nice everyone was who competed in these
games. I just assumed they were trying
to ease my nerves, but they were not.
The people I met were simply amazing.
I have never been apart of an athlete competition where the athletes
were so supportive of one another. So
now I am addicted to the sport of Highland Games, and I can not wait until my
second competition.
