Happy Easter!

Hey guys its Easter!  Spring is officially here and I am so happy because the weather is getter more perfect by the second, and when the weather is perfect thats when we go out to play volleyball. So today, to celebrate Easter, me and my family went on a barbecue picnic at the park and my dad and I played volleyball the whole time. I am very excited because Tuesday is the first tryout for the travel v-ball team, and even thought I am not staying I am still going until I can. I want to spend as much time as possible with my team and play with them because I will miss them so much and I owe everything that I know to my coach because I started with him and he's got me this far. The barbecue today was amazing and I had a lot of fun even though I scarped my knees a little bit. Last year I spent easter with my cousin and we went egg hunting and it was really fun, but this year was the best with my family. I hope everyone else had a great Easter as well, :)

Good erspective

Hey guy, I've got some news and theres a good part and a bad part. So my volleyball coach is starting a volleyball league for us because we won district championship and he believes that we have the potential to play club. The tryouts for the league is Tuesday and I'm going but I will not be able to play on the actual team because I will be moving and the league is about a year long. I am very sad about the fact that I can't play here, especially knowing that theres going to be many opportunities for me to go as far as I want. The good news that I have is that I got into a very good volleyball club where Im moving to, its a national team thats very serious. So I'm not so sad anymore about moving, even though I am going to miss a lot of people like my coach, my team mates, my best friends, and that one special person. I hope that everything works out and that I don't loose touch with anyone through out the time that I'm not here. I've started to look at my situation in a positive way, now I just see things as new chance and a new start to focus on myself and to work toward the goal I've set for myself. The only thing I'm going to do in Iran is work out on my volleyball and stick to my education. I see Iran as a place that is just going to get me ready and 10x better for here, just my nurturing place. Anyways I hope everyone is having a great spring break. :)      ( link to picture; http://rivals.ph )

Bussing Beach

( picture from http://www.angelenoliving.com )
Hello everyone, sorry I haven't blogged in a little while but I'm back with a wonderful story. So this Monday me and my six other friends decided to go to the beach, but we did not have a car ride so we took the bus, alone. We all met at my friends house at 7am and walked to the bus station, by 7:30 we were on our first bus. While we were on that bus we were trying to find out where we are going to and let me tell you, we were lost for a good 10 mins. As we found our next bus, in about 30 minutes, that took us through the freeway close to the beach we calmed down, mostly me because I was freaking out. By about 9am we were off the second bus and we found a Subway and Starbucks store right next to each other and we were hungry. As we spent almost an hour there eating and drinking our food, we missed our next bus so we had to wait for the next one. While we were at the bus stop, a homeless guy walked up and tried to kiss my friend! She got so scared, she stood up and ran until the guy was gone, the guy looked like he had some issues so we didn't make a big deal out of it. It was crazy but I was on the floor laughing really hard, it was so funny. As we got on our next bus, it took about another 45 minutes to get to where we wanted but we finally got there. It was about 11am when we reached 3rd street and we walked the rest way to the beach and the weather was amazing. We were finally by the shore and we went in the water and had a lot of fun. The ride back from the beach was another story, 20x more crazier, but the fun that we had ruled it all out and it was a great experience.

Got Me Thinking

Hey everyone, today in my period first class we were talking about high school and college credit and it got me thinking about what I wanna do. I always had the plan to finish school earlier with a good record, grades, and more than enough credit so I can get a good job in the career that I choose to major in. I want to go to a really good university and most universities are very expensive so I was thinking about getting a sport scholarship by playing volleyball. I am positive that I can play volleyball and do school work like I am right now, even though university is 100x harder than middle school. In high school, especially the first two years, I am going to just take honor classes and practice volleyball. These two years are going to be basically my nurturing years for volleyball but I will be focused on school work also. After these two years I am going to be taking AP classes and classes in the summer to get college credit. By then I am hoping that I am in a club volleyball team or a varsity high school team. I have very high expectations for myself and my future, I believe than working hard will pay off and I will have a comfortable life that allows me to do anything I like. I hope you guys start thinking about your futures as well because its an important thing.
