The next thing in my life just came up! Basketball started on Monday! We got a new coach this year and I love her so much, she played the same positions as I do and so the posts are getting a lot more attention and she ran us way hard the first two days but her methods have started making more sense. Getting in such better shape! Yes I am so excited I might play varsity, it all depends on the practices between now and the season. I am very confident that I will get in some of the games though! If not varsity I will probably be starting JV and that is way exciting for me!
The seniors are good and that has been something that we have not had in a couple years. Last year especially the seniors did not play at all so our team did not do to well but now that we have all had the experience of playing at that level we know we can do it! From the time of volleyball tryouts until now I feel like I could have done a lot more with basketball but now I am devoting all of my time to basketball!
Is Allie recording every BYU basketball game on her DVR? why yes she is! Those guys know how to play so well and every time I watch a game there is more things that I can do! Always learning is the best way to go in sports!
I got a wrist band from my Jimmer camp this summer that has the letters IWC, I wont cheat! Not only in school can you cheat, you need to be able to look back at your life and say I did everything the right way! If you did not get every honor or do everything you wanted to you can look back and say you did it the right way so the other stuff does not matter!
Our shirts this year are very cool but my favorite one is a goldish color and on the back it says "BAND OF SISTERS" for all of you that don't know BYU football one of the big things that Bronco is pushing is "BAND OF BROTHERS." We need to do everything right so we can trust each other to catch everything we throw at them not only in the gym but also outside of the gym. What good is a team if you cant trust them with anything that you have in your life, you need to celebrate there rejoices and there sorrows with them and help them get over sad things in there life and the happy things cant make them take their eye off the goal.
No matter what you need to be behind your friends and family in whatever they are doing! When people take the time to care about you individually it makes you feel very special and so now you need to return the favor!
I made the BASKETBALL TEAM and it has taught me a lot and we are only 4 days into the season! wow how crazy will everything be that I have learned by the end of the season! THIS IS GOING TO BE SO MUCH FUN!!! I will definitely keep the blog updated on games and what is happening! Please Comment and tell me what you think!
