Hola Peeps! 1/24/11

Mmmk....well lets see....

On Monday after I posted that whole blog about my apartment I got SUPER sick. Pretty sure it was just the 24 hour flu but I couldnt eat or sleep for a few days and I was miserableeeeeee. Also I felt bad because I still had not practiced with the team yet, but literally could not get out of bed.  We had a game on Wednesday but I was not allowed to play because it was a match from earlier in the year that they had to reschedule. It worked out better for me to recover though.

I was finally feeling better on Thursday and was able to practice and it went really well! The girls are all so competitive and it was fun practicing with them.  It was nice to finally start playing again and get used to the gym and team.  We left on Friday for a match and I dont know why but traveling from this island is the most difficult thing. We had to take 3 flights and had a 2 hour drive to get to this darn place! Each flight was only like 50 minutes long, so it could be worse BUT still not ideal.  We won in 3 and I played and did fine. It was difficult adjusting to the setting because again we had only had a few practices together but it wasnt bad and we got the W so yay us!

We got home on Sunday night, after the same travel schedule as before....blah. And it felt so good to relax! I went over to one of the girls house and hung out with them for the night and it was really fun! I am getting pretty good at being able to understand and communicate with them.  My spanish is improving...  slowly! But I am dedicated to learning!  We had lifting earlier this morning and film and practice later. We only have TWO days to prepare for the Queen's Cup. We travel Wednesday and play Thursday, Friday, Saturday I believe. We play Tennerife first and they are a good team so we need to have a couple good practices.  Also I think they are going to be available to watch online so I will keep you updated.

Thats all for now!

If you want to know more leave a comment and I'll make sure I write about it next time!

Ciao!
