Life of a College Student Volleyball Player: Crazy Week

Little did I know, volleyball would take such a toll on my life. I had two games this week. One against UCLA at home on Tuesday and the second was against UCI at 10 pm. Not only was it hard enough to compete two days in a row, but at the worst times. Tuesday was my friend Alli's birthday and by the time I got to the restaurant all our friends went to for dinner, they were already waiting for their check. I missed out :( The next day was extra long. After I went to my morning class, I had a lot of homework I needed to catch up on since I was away all weekend. Then at 830 pm, I left my room to head to my game. I do not know why we played our match so late, but by the time I got back home, I knocked out on my bed because it was so late.
Not only volleyball has been taking up my time besides homework, but this weekend has been in need of preparation. I will be turning 19 on Sunday and everyone keeps asking me what I am going to do and inviting me to different things. Honestly, I have no idea what I want to do this weekend because I am tired of being pulled back and forth. All I know is that on Sunday I am going to church to thank God for another year of life and to the bowling alley to challenge my parents in a game or two. It is always fun playing against my parents because they met in a bowling alley and I tell my friends that bowling is a natural talent of mine hahah. I hope this weekend turns out better than I think. For my birthday I just hope to get an ice cream cone and possibly a car. I do not want to get my hopes up so we'll see! :)
