The Close of the Year

   Winter is coming in full force soon. This means for many the close of the Fall semester of 2013, visiting family, food, presents, carols, and renewing bonds with friends and kin alike.  As we all approach these wonderful times, there should be a moment taken to consider the state our lives are in.

# 14! This was my 2nd year of club season.
Wow.. this was Junior year in high school!
 woohoo 1st place!!!

   I moved to Texas from California the summer before 5th grade started and thinking about it now, it really was an awful time to move. I don't know about you guys but around that time was a very awkward period of my life. I was still not quite sure how to dress myself, or fix my unruly frizzy hair ( which the Texas humidity emphasized to my disdain), and that's when I realize that boys.. well let's just say I saw them in a new light. So to help with my slump, my parents thought it would help to put me in a recreational sport so I can meet new friends, and get out of the house . Since my Mom played volleyball throughout her teenage years, she suggested I try it. I tried tennis in California and I greatly enjoyed it,
