The up's and down's of nap's.

I woke up this morning at 6:55 with the TV along with the lights on with my computer wide open staring at me. I went back to sleep and got woke up by the text message of my mother seeing if i was awake. I flipped through the channels and watched Miss Congenitally 2. I started getting ready because Aunt Angie, Uncle Chris, Finn, and Scout and me where going to the chula vista nature preserve. It was fun my favorite part was the sea horses!I also liked the sting rays and the star fish! I did NOT like the snakes and the tarantula, freaky i was scared and to top it off uncle Chris kept scaring me with snake things. Overall it was really fun and i was glad i got to spend more time with them. This next weekend i hopefully will go to the beach with them and go surfing, FUN! I really miss the old days were we used to hang out A LOT, I'm just glad were hanging out more =).

When i got home i watched movies, and i guess i fell asleep around 2 and woke up a little past 6. The point is I CANT GO TO SLEEP NOW AND ITS 1:30 IN THE MORNING. Though Ive stayed up later, i am not the littlest tired right now. I am never taking naps ever again. The good part about the nap was i did catch up on some sleep because I've been really tired the past couple of days but, now its not really paying off. I'm also surprised in myself because i NEVER take naps, i hate naps, cause see what happeneds! It might also have something to do with the chocolate i had too at 9 o'clock, ha ha yummmm CHOCOLATE!!!!

Now I'm watching life time movies flipping from facebook and my phone..... maybe its time to go to bed wait I'm not tired. =( this is so sad. :'( ok I'm literally going to try and go to sleep. Good night or should i say good morning, sweet dreams.

The end of STARLINGS

The end of this season of starlings for volleyball has come. Overall we got 35 place out of 50 teams or so at nationals. We didn't do so well but, there is always next year. Nationals was so cool there was a bunch of different teams from different states, it was so cool to see how many girls have the same interest and how we can all get along.

Overall I really enjoyed playing on my team. I really like my coach and she is the best coach i have ever had. She taught me so many things and not just in volleyball and i thank her for that. She did a great job and i hope i have her next year. I improved a lot and especially in my setting and i hope i can continue to keep playing that position, in the end i was really proud of myself. I was also really proud of myself in becoming CAPTAIN because i proved to myself i have what it takes and that i really put everything in everything i do. I made some new friends that I will keep in touch with. Cant wait till next year!

Fearless

A couple days ago I learned what I'm mostly afraid of. I was thinking about it a lot and thought to myself why am I scared of that, that's a stupid thing to be afraid of. I realized that every one has a fear and that fearless means to have fears. Without fears we wouldn't be able to face them or learn from them. I have a lot of fears: I fear that all chocolate in the world will disappear, that country music is going to change into pop and rock, that an earth quake will make all horse shoes that are hanging up above a door turn upside down and create all the good luck they hold into bad luck, that the world will be controlled by kids, that the word friends wont have a definition or a meaning, that all mean people will turn nice because then we couldn't be the better person and do the right thing because everybody would be nice and you wouldn't even notice or have feelings-ok you get my point, that there will be no more easy buttons to push even though there annoying, that all the stupid things you and your friends talk about that you remember the most will already have been talked about, that no talking in library's rule will be over ruled, that when I'm riding the feeling of being free will go away, and that this list will never end.

Even though non of these is what i fear the most i still have a lot of fears and worries. Lets just say i worry a lot, but i just proved to myself that i am fearless. I will one day have more fears and have fears that i will accomplish and wont accomplish but, one thing is for sure, i will always be FEARLESS.

Gullable- or however you spell it.

Open Ceremonies were tonight and let me tell you it was so FUN.

So Sarah picked me up and me, Sarah, Rachel, Nicole and Kara were in the car. We were on our way to open ceremonies for nationals and it was at sweet water high school. When we were driving we felt like we were the odd ones out. It was so scary and freaky down there. I was scared to go to the school because they said it looked really freaky and there mascot was the red devils. In the gym there was paintings and sculptures of the red devil. I was scared. The fun started when all the teams went on the gym floor and did the cha cha slide. There was other songs and dances that were on after and we were just waiting for the hoedown through down which didn't come on. =( While the coach's were having a meeting we sat on the floor talking about Napoleon dynamite and how I've never seen it. They just keep talking about haw funny and stupid it was. I asked if there was a point to the movie and they said no. I have to say they did really funny impressions.

When we were leaving we were out side and we all were trying to do an impression of how hood people or whatever you call them walk. Nicole did a really preppy walk and we started laughing and then me, Rachel and Kara started doing funny walks too. We turned around and Sarah had this weird look on her face. As we were walking back to the car we started singing Annie songs like tomorrow. It was so funny. In the mean time we almost got ran over by a truck, just kidding because Sarah said she would save us which is very nice of her and we thank her for that considering were are freaks. We were very careful as we were walking to the car, it was very very scary. In the mean time through out the whole time everyone was telling me and nicole how gullable we were and they were playing tricks on use which was so not cool. I really thought gullable wasnt in the dictionary because i looked it up and i couldnt fin it but then they proved me wrong and told me that i spelled it wrong.... who knew.

Were in the car at the gas station and I get this call from someone. So Rachel answers the phone and is talking to this someone and then everyone starts talking to this someone and everyone is saying hi. We told the someone that we were on a road trip and about to get disconnected, I felt bad. You guys were being kinda mean to the someone, its ok it was funny! Now the prank calls begins. We had one about someone calling 7-11 fourteen times and they wanted to sue them, we had one about making a reservation for a honeymoon sweet at the Ritz Carlton hotel. The best prank call was when I called Rachel in the car because Sarah dropped me off first. So Rachel answers and I'm like this is baskin robins and Rachel goes hi Maddy. She tells me that she has caller ID and I didn't block the number. Everyone was laughing and I was on speaker. I promised her that i would prank call her tomorrow with caller ID at nationals. It was a pretty fun night. It was one of those night were i wish it didn't end. It felt like a pretty wild and crazy road trip.

Well of to bed. First day of nationals tomorrow. GO MISSION BAY!!!

I'm offically a SOPHOMORE!

So today I officially became a SOPHOMORE!

I had my TPOL today which we do instead of finals and I was freaking out so bad. When it came time to go I felt like I was just repeating myself over and over. Then when it came time for the teachers to ask questions I felt like I couldn't answer them at all. In the end my teacher was like how does it feel to be done with ninth grade and officially be a sophomore. I didn't say anything. Then he was like aren't you happy and relieved? I said yay in a non happy way and left. I thought they were going to fail me but, my friend Amber told me I did great and then people in my class said that my teacher said I passed. I feel like I could of done better but, I'm still really proud of myself for making it through this year!

Then I went shopping with my best friend Amber and I got some new jeans from PAC SUN and surprisingly Ive never been there before. Amber was in shock. During the rest of the day I wasn't making sense and Amber and other people weren't sure if I should of passed ninth grade or not. Part of me agrees with them.

Tomorrow Amber is going and I wish her the best of luck and I know she will do awesome!!!

Today was also our last day volleyball practice and then off to NATIONALS for four days! Practice was really fun and I was a little hyper.... just a little if you want to put it that way. We did the hoedown throw down and had a cartwheel, round off and handstand competition and we climbed a tree. It was pretty fun.

I feel like today was a good day. I passed ninth grade, hung out with my bff, went to volleyball and talked to some pretty awesome people too. Hope today was a wonderful day for others also.

The end of the first chapter

I decided to start a blog about myself and my journeys. There are two women who also have blogs that inspired me to start one.

It has come to an end of ninth grade with laughter, joy and smiles. Though I had my up's and down's I am thankful for everything that has happened in my 9th grade journey. I have learned alot about myself and others, meet some wonderful new people that I hope I will continue to have some wonderful times with.

I have my TPOL tomorrow and I'm actually pretty confident about it but, at the same time nervous all thanks to amber! I'm so glad ninth grade is coming to an end but, at the same time really sad, part of me doesn't want it to end. I cant wait for tenth grade to see what will happen and the new challenges and adventures that await!!!

Wish me luck on my TPOL.
