Day one of basketball tryouts are over. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Once I started running, it was pretty good. I am definitly out of shape, at least slower than I use to be. All that anxiousness for nothing.

Funny thing is I go through this cycle every year. For those who have known me for the past few years would know that. I worry and worry, I wonder if I’ve got another year in me but in the end, I end up going to try outs, going to practice and by the end.. “there goes another season!”

Thanks to everyone who’s had to bear with me the last two days. All my complaining and spazziness. It was quite funny to be honest, and I’m sure some of you would agree. I’ve got to say God was totally with me, the last class of the day I was definetly not feeling very excited but listenning to some David Crowder Band songs was great. I remember seeing them live this past summer and worshipping with them was one of the best experiences ever.

God somehow has a way of comforting, would you not agree?

Cheers Jo!

The night before tryouts, you would assume to get a very good night sleep and be ready for basketball right? Well I didn’t get a good night sleep at all last night. I rolled around on my bed and by the time I got to sleep, I’m sure it was after one in the morning. Worse than that, I woke up every hour either to turn on or off the air conditioning or just because I woke up. Sigh.

Wasn’t in the greatest mood this morning.

Maybe I need a Miracle. Steam?

Cheers Jo!

Have you ever had so many emoctions going on at the same time that your body is unclear of how to react? For a good half of the day, it was exactly how I felt. Tryouts are in less than 24 hours and though I am not worried so much about getting on the team or not. I am worried about having to run, having to get back in shape. I am not one who can run for a long time and won’t get tired.

I am feeling excited, nervous and scared at the same time.  Just a while ago, a few months ago, I was telling everyone how basketball is not starting until end of October, early November and i still have alot of time to relax and chill out. Today it hit me that they are tomorrow. I am still in shock. I don’t know what to think. My heart still beeps at random intervals thinking about it. Anytime someone asks me how I am doing, that is all I can tell them, though it doesn’t get the conversation anywhere.

Less than 24 hours, you’ll hear from me tomorrow.

Cheers Jo!

Hynah. So after having dimsum with my parents and shopping at Nike, I wanted to get a drink before I head back home. I go into city super craving a miracle. I power walk to the drinks area and I don’t see The Miracle of Grapefruit. Curiosity is where it usually is, but Miracle is not next to it! What happened? I don’t know.. Sigh. I had to go with a Root Beer in the end. Which was not bad but still disappointing.

Try outs are in two days. I’m not ready.. not for the running but then again, I’ll never be ready. Open gym today was pretty good. Most of my shots went in, it was a good day. But whenever I think of the running during try outs and practice, I cringe. I also over heard something that I wish I didn’t hear. But it’s not going to stop me from my plans this next weekend. I need my time away from civilization and just hang out and relax. There are so many thoughts going through my head right now. What if we have practice on Friday? What would I do? What would Coach think and say to me? Oh well, lets get past the tryouts first.

Yesterday we had encounter at Tim and Cindys. I went early to Lamma and explored with Nanda and Cindy. We jogged and walked – alot, it didn’t help that I was wearing two shirts as well. It was fun though, Lamma is beautiful. At night, we watched High School Musical. It was a cute movie, the girls went crazy… I was exhausted by the end of the night. It’s been a good weekend so far.

Hope all you rugby people are doing good and not getting too injured. Even though I’ve heard of a pretty serious injury already. Good luck anyhow.

Cheers Jo!

Class is ending in a minute. But I wanted to say hello to ya’ll. How is ya’lls friday coming along? Mine is good, only about two more hours of school to go. Then relax at home for a bit then off to Lamma.

One thought before I head out. Life doesn’t revolve around guys. Jessy, Hynah and a couple of you guys will know what I’m talking about. Sigh. Double Sigh.

Here’s what I’ve accomplished this 40 minute photography class.

Cheers Jo!
