Senior Season--Tennis

So far my senior season of tennis is going really well. I have mixed feeling though, in the past 3 years i have always been 2nd or 3rd singles and just waiting for when i was a senior because Laura was going to graduate and allow me to be first singles. But this year we have 2 new really good freshmen making me be third singles. My goal for this season was to be number one. That is not going to be the case. I just have to look at the good side which is this means the team will be in a really good position for the next 4 years while we have 2 good first and second players. Also with me being 3rd singles this means that I will most likely be able to win more games, I will feel better about my self if I am wining more games.

I am preserving in my activities because this is my fourth season of tennis, and even though i did not get the spot that i wanted i will continue to play.

I am also developing new skills because in practice each day I am learning new things.

Math Competion

At the Math Competion today, I did pretty well it was tough but it was fun! i didn't get all of it right but i feel like i did pretty well

I have been doing this activity for all 4 year, i really like it and i will miss it next year when i no longer have the option to continue.

I also have increased awareness of my self because i know my limitations with math and i know where i need to improve.

Gymnastics-The Re-Start

Today I had Gymnastics again, I had not had it in a long time. In fact I thought that I had completed. But i decided that I was going to call them up again and get started again. I am really enjoying it again (well it was really fun while I was there, but now its not because Im so tired and sore... But its most definitely worth it) At Gymnastics, I worked on the bars, with swinging, cast handstands, then I went to the trampoline, it was new so I did flips, and front bounders, and then I went to the "fun" vault, I don't know what it is really called, its the one that I like the best. And last I went to beam and just did the basic stuff.

I have Planed and initiated activities because I had to call them up and ask if I can come back

I have shown perseverance because I have started it up again and I have been doing it a while now.

Gymnatics Starting Again

I have just emailed the Gym, asking if I can come back to continue working out with the team.

I am planing because I have been trying to call them and get in contact but I have given up and am just emailing them because that seemed to work the best last time

And I am preserving because I stopped and now i am picking it up again!

Surf Club

I made the next deposit for the trip the other day. This is making it seem more and more real!

I am showing perseverance because i said i would pay to be able to go on the trip and I am paying slowly but surly.

And also by paying fr this trip I am developing new skills by learning how to save money and also when we get to costa rica i will be further learning how to surf!

Soccer this season!

Today at practice coach announced captains!!! me and Nikki are captains together! which is really good! im really excited about it.


but anyway soccer this season has been going well so far. i like the new kids that are coming to the them and also! one good thing for me is that the summer league that i played in according to coach helped me out a lot, and it makes sense playing with people that are much better pull you up to their level in a sense.

we had a scrimmage against Pope John Paul the other day and we won by a lot which is to be expected, they are middle schoolers with no real soccer program but i think it was a good thing to do because, it showed the new players how to play and were to be.

I have undertaken new challenges, because I'm now a captain.

Also i have shown perservence because this is my fourth year on this team and a lot of the players who were freshmen with me are no longer on the team.

Soccer June 18 2009

Last Thursday We played Orleans, this was fun, i was in better shape, i could feel it already, i wasn't in complete pain the next day from working out so much which was really good! Another good thing about playing orleans is that when we play them I'm playing my old assistant coach. That was fun he remembered who i was and my name even though he hasn't been the assistant coach in a few year. We ended up wining 7 to 3. I played for DY this time and there was one sub so i still go a ton of playing time but i did get subs- I'm one of the lowest level players on the team but its still really fun to play

5 because i came back even though the first game that i went to was really hard and i was really soar the next day.

8 because i am getting stronger and more in shape and when im getting more in shape it allows me to focus more on soccer and not have the issue of having to run to the ball.

Tennis May 27

This has been a good week at tennis so far but now tennis is over so I have a lot of free time. This week i covered that i took on new chalanges because we went to states for the first week ever so that was a new chalange and also a new chalange would be that the states mathch was right after prom and after prom so i was really tired and i have never played with that little sleep before.

I showed commintemnt because i went to the game and i was really tired and i didn't want to go, and that comminment because i went.

Lasly i am going to be captain next year which is exciting.

Were going to STATES!!!!!!

this was a good week in tennis, we found out that were going to states!!! which is really exciting. we made it to states with 2 or three more matches to play which mean if we win those matches we have a chance of going onto the second round which would be AMAZING!!! we are the second girls team to make it (girls soccer was the first-that was fun also) now tennis!

4 because I'm on a team so i have to be working together with others

5 because this season I've been really stressed out with school and i have been thinking of dropping tennis to give me some more time, but i keep going back to it, because its fun and i enjoy it so its showing my commitment to my team!
