Basketball!
This is my third week of basketball. Three Mondays ago I went to my first practice. It was scary but I survived! The first two practices were really hard so my whole body was very soar. We have approximetly 1,5-2h practice every day after school. The first week we also had practice both before and after school. I had to get up at 5 in the morning because the practice started at 5:55... The first week was a really long week. All the girls on the team are really good and because I just played basketball when I was little and the American girls played basketball in Middle School too. Veera (the other exchange student) and I both started basketball and we are the worst once on the team... Hehehe... But we are improving ;)
The second week we had our first game. I didn't think that our coach would let me play but I got to play the last 48,6 seconds of the game which was at least something :) I was very nervous because there was over 100 people watching the game and when I came on the court people screamed my name which made me even more nervous. We lost the game.
This week we also had one game. This game I got to play a total of 4min. I got to shoot two shoots and of course I missed them both, but otherwise my coach said I did good :) We won this game which was nice. Tomorrow we have another game.
Rachel, Lily, me, Veera and Sara (from left) before our first game. We are not suppose to have our pants that high up, but we took this photo as a joke... The jersey and the pants are so big on me...
