Final project

I am glad that the final project is a group project, because i don't wantr to do a lot of work by myself. I am a little nervous about it though, because of how many points it is worth and because you can't really make it up if you get a bad grade.

Gunderson vs. Prospect (volleyball 2)

We played our second game against prospect in their gym on thursday. We played one of the worst games of the season and lost the third match 25-13. We didn't play with any intensity or confidence. I hope we make up for it next game and get a couple more wins this season.

Gunderson vs. Pioneer (volleyball 2)

We played Pioneer again, but this time it was at our house. We played an alright first match and a good 2nd match. We lost the 1st and third matches and ended up losing the game. We have gotten better at our hitting and passing, but there are still some things we need to work on.

Summer is coming

Summer is getting closer, only a couple more weeks. It's already started to get hotter and hotter these days. I am excited that in a couple weeks summer break will start. I am also excited about being a junior next year when school starts again.

Sacramento

I did manage to go to Sacramento yesterday with my Dad and my cousin. We went t my Uncle's house for a couple hours. After that we all went to help my uncle fix the roof on another house he owns. We stayed for a couple more hours then we returned to San Jose.

Trip canceled

I didn't get to go to Europe this week. I had to stay home and take care of my grandmother because she was sick. I am kind of dissapointed that i didn't get to go. I hope I can go sometime soon.

Vacation

I am enjoying my spring break and i will leave for Europe on Wednesday. I am glad that i can get this time off to finally visit some of my family that is still in Eastern Europe. I haven't seen most of them in over 3 years.

Gunderson vs. Lincoln (volleyball)

Ourt varsity team played Lincoln on Friday and won at home. I couldn't attend the game but i heard that our varsity team did really well and swept them in 3 matches. Our next game is against pioneer on 4/21.

Gunderson vs. Oak Grove (volleyball)

We finally got the 1st win of the season and snapped our losing streak at Oak Grove on Thursday. The first match was kind of close but we won it 25-21. The second match was an absolute embarrasment, we killed Oak Grove 25-8. We played good, but we won mostly because Oak Grove is a horrible team.

Spring break

I'm excited about spring break coming up. I am going on vacation to Bosnia to visit some of my family and will probably stay there the whole week. I haven't visited Europe in over 2 years, so it should be fun. I am also happy that school is almost over, only 6 more weeks until summer.

Losing streaks

I hate losing streaks in sport. It's harder to win when you're coming off of a loss than it is when you just won a game. It also makes you feel bad about the way you played last game when your team is constantly losing. In volleyball we haven't won a single game yet (JV). I hope that we can beat Oak Grove next Thursday and snap this losing streak.

Gunderson vs. Prospect (volleyball)

We played Prospect on tuesday at home. We played a good game but it wasn't enough to win. We lost by 2 points in the 3rd game of the series. The game was pretty close from the beginning, we won the first game, then they won the second. We got the lead in the last game but they played harder and got the win.
