Assignment #3- Expertise

I personally think that I am very good at Volleyball. I have been playing off and on since I was in about 6th grade. I enjoyed it off and on, and that is why I haven't been playing very much. My father always pushed me to play and I'm thinking thats why I never wanted to play as much. But now that I am getting older and wanting to get into sports again, I would really like to get int Volleyball again. And still hoping I am great at it!
The point of this sport is to get the ball over the net, without it hitting your side, on the ground. You also have to try to get the ball to hit the other teams ground, if that happens, your team gets a point. If the ball is on your side or the court, your team can only hit the ball three times, but remember, you can only hit it once, when someone else on your team hits it, you may hit it again, just can't touch it twice in a row.

With all of the rules that they have in Volleyball, I am only able to play on a regular court, unlike if I were to play water volleyball or beach volleyball. To play, you have to be in a certain area, depends where you are placed which is decided on the team or coach. From there, you have to stay in that amount of area, and if the ball comes towards you, you have to make sure you call "mine!" or something similar to that, just so you teammate that might be going for the ball at the same time you do, they back off so you guys don't get hurt.
This sport has a lot of rules, that i can't even begin to tell you. If you are interested, you can look them up. This is not just a girl sport, a lot of guys are into it too. I highly recommend this sport to play, it can be very easy at times, but it can get very hard and challenging! but it still can be a lot of fun either way!

















Assignment #2- Favorite ?

The thing that interests me the most would have to be Marilyn Monroe. I am a big fan of her! She is completely gorgeous and is very talented! She was a model, a singer, and a actress.
Marilyn was her own person. she did what she wanted and not what other people expected of her, or wanted her to do. She was a a big believer and lover. She was also nice and giving as well as wanting the best for her and other people. She was very popular and never took advantage of that, like some of the other celeberties would. She gave a lot of her money away and would fund it towards peoples who needed supplies or whatever they might need.

People today are still remembering her and how amazing she was. Her music is amazing, along with the movies she has been in and the pictures she has modeled for. Now a days, you can go buy a picture framed with her picture in it, some of her movies on line, and her clothing in stores and online.

Assignment #1- Summer Vacation

This summer, I was in Tucson, Arizona. At the beginning of the summer, I did not do much, except hang out with my boyfriend, who is my best friend, and my family. We would usually go to the main mall to hangout, or maybe someones house for a little while. play games and such! We couldn't do any outdoor activities from it being so hot, and most likely us being dehydrated. Which is a very common thing in Tucson, from a hundred degree weather.

During the summer, I was living with my grandma, my moms mom. after most of the summer, I had to make a decision, and said I'd go live with my mother, who lives in Costa Mesa, California. I wasn't too happy about it, and spent as much time with my boyfriend as I could. we would go to the zoo, and hangout at his house, and just spend every minute we could with each other.

When i moved to California with my mom., it was really hard being away from my boyfriend. But for the part of the summer that I was here, I went to the beach maybe once or twice, and thats about it! but close to when school was starting, in August, my boyfriend came to visit for a week! We went to the beach, went to Disney Land, and stayed there for a whole day. And the last thing we did was go Whale Watching, we saw a lot of whales and dolphins! We had so much fun! then once that week was over, he left, and i had to start getting ready for school starting again.
