Today I went to the beach with Mindi and her friend Leslie. it was niiiiiiiice. didn't have a board, only mindi did, but it was still awesome. and pool hopping wouldnt be as fun if it were legal :)
So my mom's talking about making me quit softball. well, she's been talking about it ever since i made the team but now she's serious and so's my dad. it's not really that i don't play much, it's all the driving she does, cause it's in Chesapeake. and my dad hates bingo (once a month for 6 hours, it's how we pay for tournaments and stuff), and they don't fit in with the parents and stuff. So, probably after nationals, or maybe in mid-August, I will no longer be able to do what I love to do more than anything in the world (with a few exceptions)... and what I've worked so hard at for the past 10 months. The main reason being that my absolutely LOVELY, CARING mother does not like to drive me to practices. She acts like there's other teams I can be on but there's not. Not that I could be on.
So, yeah, now that I'm finally feeling like a part of the team and absolutely loving everyone on it, it's probably coming to an end soon. It's weird when I think about not playing softball all the time. It's become such a huge part of my life. I've put SO much time and work into getting better, because that's all I want, is to get better. But I guess I won't ever get better after this, since I won't be playing until Cox JV, if I even make that team. But even so, I hear the JV teams are a joke compared to AAU from a friend on the PA team.
Wonderful, really.
Oh, how I simply ADORE my parents. right? hahhhhhhhhhhh. right.
