~Basketball Rocks!~

This Saturday is my first basketball scrimmage. I am really excited about it but I am also kind of nervous. But what I can't wait for is the rush and all of the excitement in the whole thing. I really enjoy playing sports because I love the feeling of competition and the feeling of how good you will do and everything like that. But the thing that I am most nervous about is about the mistakes that I will or might not make but still might mess up our chances of winning. This time I am going to focus on all of my accomplishments and all of the good things that my team and myself do during this game. After this scrimmage is our first game so I am going to focus on the good things and then practice on the bad things.

Basketball!

I started basketball about 2 weeks ago and it has gotten a lot harder than it was last year. I found out yesterday that I am going to be playing the shooting guard. I am very excited about that becuase I haven't been the shooting guard before. Last year I played point guard and I might be playing just a little bit of point this year but not most likely. I have found that if you do not try your hardest then you are going to run suicides! I am kidding but I am serious about the suicides. We have to run a lot of those. This year my biggest thing I think that I am going to try to focus on is going to be to try my hardest, never give up, and also to have a good attitude the whole way through. This year I hope that my team will come together more and act more like a team!



.... This is a video of my blog! This is about the different sports that I do and how they are supposed to look or be done. I tried to put the different sports together and then I was trying to make the video look like it had a little bit of action. I chose this specific song because like it didn't have many words and the song just seemed to fit the video. I like this video because it shows how devoted I am to the sport and then it shows that I want to keep playing them for a long time!

Track!

Last year I ran track for the first time. I ended up being the fastest girl out of both 7th and 8th grade. I was very surprised.What got me into running track was my oldest sister Leslie. She helped me with my technique and the way that I need to be running. She also helped me with my form. I got a lot better than I thought that I would . This is my first year running track. I hope that we do better than we did last year. We did pretty well for it being the first year that anybody has done it. This year we lost some of our best runners because they went to the high school but i think that we are going to have a pretty nice team. My goals for this year are that we would do better and also that we wouldn't get mad or just get angry with ourselves or our own teammates. The thing that I am going to focus on this year is that I try my hardest and do not judge myself for something that I might have done wrong.

Basketball!

I started to play basketball when I was in kindergarten or at least in 1st grade. I have 2 older siblings that have helped me a lot to become better at basketball. My oldest brother Phillip was the point guard almost all through his high school year. Last year I was our teams point guard and he helped me a lot with what I needed to know. I have found that basketball is something that you have to want to work hard for and not just goof around or just do it to do it. You have to want it more than anything. I would say that basketball is my favorite sport. Why is because I have grown up watching and playing it so I have the most experience. This year I don't know how well our team is going to do but all I know is that we are going to try our hardest and do the best that we can. The best thing that I like most about basketball is that you have to work hard and it is a sport where you have to be aggressive. I am really looking forward to playing this year and hope to continue on.

~Volleyball!~

This blog is going to be about how I became so involved with volleyball. Why I got into volleyball was because my sister played all through her high school year and I got so into watching her play that I thought that I might give it a try. My sister had taught me a few things before I began to play last year. Of course that helped me a little bit then my coach did the rest. I have learned so much in my 2 years of playing volleyball. I want to learn more as I get older and go through high school. I have been a starter in both of my years of playing. My biggest goal for this year, last year, and hopefully in high school is to accomplish being able to get a scholarship for playing volleyball or any other sports that I might be interested in. Next time I am going to talk to you guys about my experience in basketball and why I became so into it.
