3 Touch
I just got this months editition of 3 touch national volleyball magazine, and i'm in it. They interviewed me about three months ago and have just published it! I am talking about volunteering in a local club, and my head coach/ mentors interview about having me there is next to it! They spelt my name right and everything. They published the interview in the Lincolnshire Sports Partnership end of year aswell, but they didn't even bother to find out my name!!!

Crazyness...
This week has been insane, I have been either in the car, at school, on a minibus, playing volleyball or training. There was a Div 1 match on Monday night which I was not playing in at Grantham against the Eagles which was great fun. We won 3-2. Tuesday night I went straight from school t Lincoln to go to a Div 2 match near Grantham against Harlaxton. This is a university made up off entirely American Students which is really cool and very spooky. We played really well and won 3-1. It was once again a closely fought contest, culminating in the whole squad singing all the way home to '80's cheesy pop - great fun! And tonight I have just got in from training. Exciting stuff though - we ordered new tracksuits so we will all match in our nice navy colours!!! Sleep now, didn't get in till about 1.30am tuesday morning and 1am wednesday morning and was out last nigt. The price I pay for playing sport. I love it though. Next Deans match is against Saracens on November 29th at home, and East Mids match is on the 26th, also at home. COME ON!!!

3-1
WE won, the first EVER Deans match and we won it! We lost the first set 25-16, won the second 25-22, won the third 25-20 and won the fourth 26-24. It was an awsome match, fought well by both squads, hard luch to Scunthorpe but I am so pleased we won. To make things just that bit better, I got voted coaches player of the match and joint third for players player of the match. I am so proud especially considering this is the first match I have played in 18 months! Here's to the next match on tuesday against Harlexton away at Grantham. Also, good luck to the Cannons against Grantham Eagles on Monday. Mahussive 6th Form part after was awesome celebration after, YAY...

DEANS!
Thursday night is the first volleyball match of the season for the Deans squad which I am part of. It' against Scunthorpe and is at home. It's the first compettitive match I have played in 18 months. Very exciting and nerve-racking. We got our kits last night which we keep for the season, I am number 3- the magic number! Well, I'll put the results up on thursday, here's hoping...

Crack
I went on a school trip to the tate modern yesterday, it was great fun. I have been like five times before, but they have a lot of new stuff since the last time I went. The crack in the turbine hall has had so much publicity that I expected it to be much larger and more impressive. It was interesting but not as good as other installations have been such as the sun, and the white boxes. I found work by Francesca Woodman though, which I was very pleassed about as she is one of my faviourite photographers. Her work isn't there for very long so I am lucky to have seen it. There were 18 prints and a short video which was really interesting. It's so sad to read her story though. It was a long day but was all in all good fun.
Bowling
Took the lincs junior volleyball squad ten pin bowling on saturday morning for 'team building' which was great fun. The head coach came back on Monday morning from a three week holiday around New York, Boston, New England in a massive RV. Sounded so much fun, very jealous.
Scotland...
is awesome, the first time I have been and I love it! We went for four days last week because I was going to a university open day in that general direction, Carlisle actually. We spent a day in Edinburgh, a day in Jedburgh (where we were staying) and went to Melrose. Have to go back and visit soon. Hopefully, fingers crossed.

Fresh Prince
I was looking through the TV guide last night, and realised that we have a channel which shows the Fresh Prince of Bel Air daily! It was my childhood evenings to watch the Simpsons then Fresh Prince on BBC 2, they started at 6pm. I still know all of the words to the theme tune which is just fab. The final episode was aired on 20 May 1996. I was probably about 10 or 11 last time I watched it which is so cool.
This is a link to the opening, watch it and see how many of the words you remember...FRESH

Commiserations...
to the England Rugby squad. Thoroughly gutted after a bravely fought match. We were down from the start and a try got disallowed. Oh well, best not to dwell on the bad points, second is better than third. Good effort.

Idiotic drivers
Last night, I was driving home from the dentist and we went to Tesco. When we were coming out of the carpark, this stupid woman came hurtling up and pulled out infront of me. I had to slam my breaks on and was severly unimpressed! Idiots should not be allowed liscences!

Lunch...
Today Suzie, Mia and Mum picked me up from school at lunch time and we went for a meal. It was really nice, we went to the garden centre (where we took Alex and Tiff for luch when they came to school) and had jacket potatoes. It was really lovely, Freya is SO smiley and good. It's been raining pretty bad though, so I got really wet feet. Ah well, I hope we do it again soon.

Stroppy customers
It seems like a lot of peoples idea of a waitress is someone who is supposed to be treated like dirt! A woman at work today had a right go at me because we didn't have the desert she wanted which is on the menu because we had run out! She was saying how disgraceful it is that they booked a table and they couldn't have the food they were expecting. If they had ordered 10 minutes earlier we had some left! She had already complained that the chef had put gravy on her yorkshire pudding. Who said that this can all be blamed on the waitress, how is it my fault what food we have, or where the chef chooses to put the gravy on the roast dinner! I hate people like this it just annoys me and there's no need for it.
On a plus side Rebert Webb (English comedian) came in for lunch and was very polite! It really isn't difficult.
