Contact!

Hey guys!! Sorry, it's been awhile since I have posted, my life has been up in the air!! Basketball is very time consuming and energy consuming too. Every day I get home around 5:30 or 5:45, and I am pooped!! My body is sore and every thing!!

We had our second pre-season game on Thursday and boy was it rough!! We played a different team and they were all black girls, except one, and they were tough little cookies!! Lets just say we could have played a whole lot better, especially me!! I played for the whole game except for like a minute, then I went back in. BOY AM I OUT OF SHAPE TOO!! There are four quarters and every quarter is eight minutes long, and this team stole the ball a lot, so of course once you got down to one end you would have to turn around and run back to the other side only to see that the other team had made another point. It was really frustrating and I really wanted my coach to pull me out and let one of the other players play, but she never did. Thankfully we pulled to gather at half time and the last part of the game we did really well.

I also, had a few break aways but every time, some one would catch up with me, or I would to the clumsy thing and trip and fall. I did that once and I got the ball back but my body was in extreme pain! When I got the fast break I could hear people yelling and stuff, but then of course, I would mess up and disappoint them all!! :P Then towards the end of the game the coach started to tell Hannah to work the ball into me, so I could work it in further to get a point, well it never really happened like I wanted it to!!

After the game though my dad and mom said that we did a really good job and they were proud of me, I was baffled!! (I like that word!) Then some of the varsity guys told me "good job" and that made me feel a little bit better. The nest morning I saw some of my team mates and they were bruised from head-to-toe!! I got my shoulder bruised, both my elbows, and my knee. It was a rough game!!

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I have contacts now, and they work really well for basketball, but Sefa, Derek's friends has already informed Derek that I look a lot better with glasses...."Thanks Sefa!"

I will talk to you all later! Luv and Miss you!

It will be the smae with your team, and it wont talk half the time becuase you guys practice everyday....whew....rough. And you are gorgeous with contacts, and with glasses.
