winners

today was a day to be remembered ... despite all the bad days of the week ..
what happened today made it all worthwhile ..

we had a volleyball game today .. not our first and definately not our last ..

it wasn't like any other games we've ever played before .. the team we played today was a "selected team" from different schools and I have to say many of them were extremely good .. i remember feeling my heart pound like it was going to jump right out of my chest .. like the other games i was nervous ... but what made this game special was that I WAS SO TIRED .. i don't know if it was the fact that coach switched me to a position that i was inexperienced at or playing the middle in volleyball is a very very VERY tiring thing .. or the other team was very experienced and very skilled ... might be all of them added together!

we won 2 sets ... one against an okay team and one against their good players and we ended up playing the 5th set which only goes up till 15 ... we lost .. 13 to 15 i guess all of us just got nervous and unsure .. scared to make a mistake ...

even though we did not win the game ... i believe that we are winners ... this team has forced US to be a better team .. the best that we could be ... i am happy and think that we did well ... hopefully we will get better and push away some emotions and play the game that we are all capable of ..

"Don't wish or hope for it, if you want it, take it."

desire

(volleyball uniform)
driven by desire. fueled by sweat.

after a 3 day weekend.. a rough one i might add ..
i decided to go to volleyball practice even though i wasn't fully well ..
today i learned that my approach for a volleyball spike was supposedly weird looking .. three guys pointed it out to me and tried to show me how it's suppose done .. they said i shouldn't be facing straight when i jump but that i should turn to my side and turn my shoulders when swinging my arm down and having a strong snap .. after many tries before and after practice .. my approach was finally looking like the approach that the guys were talking about .. (i think) one of the guys took the time after practice .. although brief ... to help me get a better idea of it .. he did it step by step and i followed .. hopefully this new spike approach can help me hit more effective spikes and improve my spiking skills .. it's not only speed and strength but form and skill .. i thank them for teaching me something new today :)

you might think that what you're doing is your best .. when it isn't .. you are always capable of so much more .. you just have to push yourself bit by bit ... open your mind to new ways .. and never be afraid to try .. no matter how silly you might look trying it.
