Volleyball and random thoughts

Haven't posted much of substance lately, so I'll try to catch you up on what's been going on. Finished up the semester last week and just have two more days at my schools before I go on break until January. It's so much easier to only have practicum and not all the school stuff too.

I had the volleyball playoffs for the league I joined this past Friday. We turned it on and got second place! We were just outmatched the last match owing mostly to the fact that that team had clearly played together more than one season and had three guys over 6ft to spike it at our faces while we had only 1 guy over 6 ft. Also, they had 9 players to sub in and out all night where we had 6 players playing four matches in a row. It was pretty sweet getting second place, though. We went out afterwards and had a great time. I love the sports part of the league, but the other amazing part is getting to meet so many new and interesting people. It's fun to have something to do every Friday night too.

I was super glad that I had volleyball Friday night because the school shooting really affected me. I was seriously getting into my own head too much over it. The school psychologist was killed. Also, I kept picturing all of my kindergarteners from Bonjour I loved so much. If some one ever tried to hurt them...

In other news, the main conflicting thing right now is the fact that I start applying for internships in January and my heart is still torn in two over Chicago suburbs and Colorado. I mean, maybe I can apply for both and then make my mind up. Only, that's hard because what if I get accepted into one first and then have to say yes or no and the other places haven't told me yet? I'm going to do some serious soul searching the next few weeks and hopefully divine wisdom will show me the way (I've been reading that Power thought card every night).

T-2 days until Christmas break!
