 Being17 without money can be frustrating. So when the chance to referee  elementarybasketball came my way, I jumped at the opportunity to have more  thatjust lint in my pockets. I thought it would be a fun way to earn some "easy  money". 5 Ihave always enjoyed the game and looked forward to seeing it from a  differentpoint of view. My love for basketball and my familiarity with it  convincedme that this would be the perfect job. When I played or watched  fromthe bleachers, I often found myself criticizing the referees for bad calls.  Howcould you miss that? Or do you need glasses? I wondered. I convinced 10 myselfthat I could do better. How difficult could it be, especially with a bunch of  secondand third graders?  Ilooked forward to my first night as a referee, but right after the tipoff,my  fantasiesfaded. These sweet, innocent thirdgrade boys transformed into  demonchildren. A fire burned in their eyes. Never in my wildest dreams had I 15 imaginedthat such competitiveness boiled within these miniature monsters.  Clawsprotruded from their fingers, and some even began to growl. I felt like a  peacekeepertrapped in a coliseum filled with lions. A battle raged on the court  whilethe inhumane spectators yelled at every play.  Suddenly,even the coaches, who I thought would be my allies in this chaos, 20 tookoff their masks and revealed themselves as my worst nightmares. My only  companion,my whistle, suffered from a severe case of stage fright, filling my  headwith doubt every time I thought about blowing it.  Thehorn sounded, and the nightmare ended. I awoke to reality, and what were  oncelittle monsters were now adorable boys running around, laughing joyfully. 25 Theruthless parents and coaches patted me on the back, telling me what a  goodjob I had done. Either they were trying to be kind, or maybe they were  overcomewith guilt for bashing my confidence to smithereens. I longed to  escapefrom the gym, but I had to wait for my "easy money". I cherished every  dimeI earned that night. 30 Inow realize how difficult refereeing is. I could have let this traumatic evening ruin my future on the court, but instead it kindled my determination to do better. I still hope to become a great referee, but I know now it will take hours of hard work. No matter how much I wish the cash could be handed to me without any effort, I learned there is no such thing as easy money.    ! > 86 ?+6  *&::@@@8A8# 1<  =) ':9
