hello homies

well softball is offically over.  While i am very happy that it is, i am also disappointed to not see my team alot anymore.  We were getting so close towards the end of the season, and also alot better as players, and individuals.  i am going to miss it, but at the same time, i won't.  and as some of you may not know, it was only my second year in the sport.  i think i accomplished a huge goal and pushed myself to try my best and practice.  at sometimes i feel that i like this sport more than i do basketball, which is a major shocker.  but due to the lack of interest of the softball coaching staff at hehs, i have decided to stop my career as a softball player.  i might try out next year, but i really doubt it.  i'm going to miss it dearly, but at least i tried a new sport, and succeeded at it. and thanks to those who made my softball career special. <3

school is almost over, can you believe it?  my sophomore year is coming to a close and it has been an interesting experience.  classes are getting harder and harder as the years go by.  if i think about who my close friends were at the beginning of the year, there are only a few who stuck with me throughout the whole year, which is really sad.  but i have met new people and became close with others.  it is amazing how fast a friendship can change.  the one quote that says: the pictures you have don't change, the people in them do, is so true. if i take a look at my pictures from 7th grade, 8th grade, even 9th grade, it's astonishing how many of those people i still talk to.  wow.  next year i'm going to be a junior.  that's the most stressful year in your high school career.  ACT's, advanced classes, college choices, deciding what you are going to do "when you grow up".  it's scary.  but it all won't be so scary.  we will get through it together. <3

summer is just around the corner, literally.  not going to go to disney world this year though.  thats a total bummer.  that is the one place where i feel at home.  but i will have just as much fun this summer hanging with people i don't see very often and also with people i do.  me amanda and val are going to a sox game, six flags with sarah, basketball tourneys, fourth of july parties, driving trips and much more. plus i think we as a family are going to florida. =)  can't wait! <3

well i think im done for now

peace homies

yours truly,

wow...im updating again! haha thats awesome!

well spring break is over and thats ok...i needed the week off of school.  It was a really good break and i had some good times with people that i usually dont spend time with. That was the best part.  lets do a recap on what i did.

-Monday~ well the first day of spring break, i think i just actually went to softball practice cause our double header got cancelled, on a 70 degree day, ugh, so after i just stayed home and relaxed...i needed it too. 

-Tuesday~ Had practice early, then the whole JV team went to Hill's house for a pizza party.  The most fun i had in a while.  We made pizza and watched Miricle.  I have pictures so ill post them at the end! =)

-Wednesday~ We had a game, against St. Viator.  We got killed but we made improvement, i thought we played pretty well.  After it stormed outside, me and my family went to damons for dinner, i liked it.  It was fun!

-Thursday~ We had a game at Dundee Crown. It was really close and we almost won.  We lost by 4, but i was happy with the way we played.  We stayed competitive the whole time and we almost had it.  I wish we could play them again but...what can ya do.  It was also really cold that day, it seemed like January again, haha.  Later that night, I hung out with Amanda and Val.  We went to IHOP and met a buy named Billy, haha this story is funny but i dont feel like typing it all...haha...anyways, after that we walked to Menards and just walked around in there, after that we went to Burger King to use their bathrooms, haha Amanda walked into the guys bathroom....haha it was so funny! after that, we went to baskin robins and got ice cream, it was so funny, all of a sudden te car wash song comes on and we all start dancing like idiots...haha it was so funny! anyways after that we went to the bowling alley and watched all these like 40 year old dance...it was kinda disgusting, but also funny...haha well basically that was my thursday.

-Friday~ Another game, against Jacobs, ahh we lost by alot! They were so much better than us and we just played horrible.  We had to run alot after the game.  We stayed like an hour after the game to run, it stunk! but we got that taken care of, we dont have to run anymore for being slauttered, because so many parents compained, haha, thats funny! After that Amanda and Val went to Barnaby's with me and my family...after they came over and slept over...it was fun... haha

-Saturday~ Went to practice...pointless practice...yea enough said...after that I went to Libertyville to watch my brother play basketball they won of course! then went home and slept!

-Sunday~ Went back toLibertyville and watched like 4 of my brothers games, they won them all so they won the championship and that was fun.  I love being at AAU tournaments...i miss it so much...i cant wait till next year when im in them! woo

This week i had school and it was really boring, i have a new class and it is so easy! haha We had two games this week and lost them both so what else is new?! haha

It is spring break! i am so relieved that it is here! i have been needing this for i dont know how long.  Hopefully this week will be a breather from my hectic life

-Basketball

 wow it seems like its been forever since basketball ended.  I miss it, of course, but i will play it this summer and practice with my brother's team alot so i dont lose what i learned this year.  I was really proud of the way our team played this year.  We improved so much from last year and we actually won a few games which was amazing for us.  I can't wait until next year when we will be even better then we are now. =D

-Softball

 well its softball season again.  My second year in the sport and i am improving alot.  I made JV and i have a amazing team.  I love my team with all my heart, they make me laugh so much.  We already played a game..we lost 8-7 but we played pretty well.  It was so cold outside that day and we played better than i thought we would.  Im excited for this season. We are gonna be pretty good.
