and she shoots!!! and!!!.... she misses....

Have ever noticed that your major school supplies seem to go missing at just the wrong time? your math book was there last night when go got up in the middle of the night and it attempted to wrestle you to the floor and almost won. But, the next morning when you actually need it to study for a really important test, it decides to take a leave of absence and depart from your presence until after 3:30 P.M, where you come home frustrated from almost failing your math test and happen to trip over it. I find it quite a phenomenon. the same goes for any major History and English quizzes too.






A little update on volleyball the season ended last week on a win which was amazing, and I just want to say good job to all the girls on our team, I saw a TON of improvement from the beginning of the season to the end and you were a fabulous team to play with.
now to basketball :D
the season starts in exactly 18 days 7 hours 26 min and 15...14...13..12..11..etc... seconds, and as you can probably tell I am not excited for it at all.... :D :D
as a side note it was so weird going back to a basketball after handling a volleyball for 3 months. And I blame that entirely for the (cough)ten(cough) times it took me to attempt to make a shot. I blame that and the glare that was coming off the floor of the gym for the 10 misses.

high school and survival of the fittest...

Has anyone else ever noticed the phenomenon of the school week?? how on Monday everyone is basking in the glow of three glorious days of sleep and relaxation from the weekend and seems to have forgotten all about Friday and their sleep deprived state???
also you might notice that as the week goes on everyone slowly but shirly starts looking less and less cheerful and starts going into the deep dark sloth of depression only to be brought on by half a week of tests, homework, and attempting to drag a 50 billion pound back pack around, all the while in the back of your mind a  nagging voice drones on and on about how you still have another half a week of school left to survive...
yep, that pretty much sums up my school week...

as a side note did you know that you are supposed to only carry around 10 pounds of stuff in your backpack???   you can imagine the fit of mirth this brought upon me when I heard this... after I got up off the floor attempting to control my laughter, I proceeded to tell the person sharing this useful  information with me that my math book weighs more than that, much less three classes worth of stuff that I have to lug around. And it would be quite impossible for me to carry so little in my backpack unless I hired someone to carry the rest of my load, which wouldn't happen unless they were willing to lug my stuff around for free...

on the subject of volleyball, I LOVE IT!!! I couldn't ask for a better group of girls, they are all amazing, and a ton of fun!
