Thank you We sneak in commitment toe extracurriculars allah shmoop

well this is marissa Marissa loves many things in life

00:11

binge watching the bachelor gnashing on thai takeout thrift store

00:15

shopping but what marissa loves most of all is her

00:19

school's water polo team They've been undefeated all season and

00:22

marisa also loves winning seriously Don't play clue with this

00:26

girl unless you want to risk being murdered in the

00:28

living room with a pad of paper by marisa Anyway

00:30

the chilling chargers are number one going into the playoffs

00:33

and not to brag but it's all because of marisa

00:36

there's a reason she's won m v p two years

00:38

in a row is no better goalie in the state

00:40

but marissa has a problem Her school scheduled prom on

00:44

the same day as the out of town playoffs And

00:47

as much as she loves to win she also loves

00:49

to get her groove on Besides you know it's prom

00:52

it's practically rite of passage right Well and besides the

00:55

chilling chargers have a backup goalie They'll be fine right

01:00

Oops Well marissa maybe pretty darn good at water polo

01:04

but she's pretty done crappy of commitment when you join

01:06

A team you're saying that you're going to show up

01:09

and pull your weight no matter what may pop up

01:11

right Even if that thing popping up as a deejay

01:14

and streamers and fancy dresses And since marissa completely flaked

01:17

on the game her teammates aren't just giving her the

01:20

cold shoulder there giving her the frozen solid shoulder o

01:23

in that college scout that came to the game in

01:26

a generous mood while he probably would've given recent scholarship

01:29

but the other team's goalie was you know actually there

01:32

that's a twenty five grand a year that marissa can

01:34

kiss goodbye and morris is coach well who had nothing

01:37

but praise for all season can't even look her in

01:39

the eye anymore So before you pull a marissa you

01:42

need to sit down and really ask yourself is it

01:44

worth it Is it worth pulling out of your commitment

01:46

and losing the respect of your peers your elders sometimes

01:49

being a part of a team reprise You make sacrifice

01:52

not that kind of sacrifice that that's better And considering

01:56

that marissa las respect friendships and well price one hundred

01:59

grand or more something tells us she'll honor her commitments 00:02:02.885 --> [endTime] A little more on her next team
