So it's summer time where I live now. Usually during summer I train in acting and I have been for the past 3 years. But this year I decided to do Volleyball.

I don't really play, more of I only play during the School's intramurals. I've only been doing so for the past 2 years. I fell in love with volleyball after watching Haikyuu.

Actually, the first year wherein I joined volleyball, I was sort of forced. I had no idea what event I wanted to be in so when our teacher called for volunteers to play in the volleyball event and saw that we were short on one player, she asked me. At first I refused but I took it back cause I realized I didn't want to do anything.

About a week before our first match I decided to watch Haikyuu. And. I. Was. Hooked. I couldn't stop watching it and during practice I was so hyped.

We won our first game, lost our second, and lost our third. In the end, we got 3rd place.

Last year though was a different story. We won our first match, won our second match and won our third. And we got first place.

During the first set my team was so nervous cause we haven't been beaten before and we had so much weight on our shoulders. Somewhere in the first set the ball was falling near the teammate in fron of me but I realized she wouldn'r get it, so I ran. It hit my arms in a bad angle though. It ny chest and bounced on my jaw. I started having difficulty in breathing but it didn't matter. During my serve I was crying cause we had the lead but only a one point lead. Besides, my hands hurt (i practiced serving too much) and I couldn't breathe properly. My first serve got in but the second didn't. Anyway, we won the first set.

I sat out during the second cause my right hand was hurting so bad and there was a really bad bump on it and I couldn't breathe properly. We lost the second set.

Third set. We were at set point (score: my team :17, other team: 16) luckily it was our team captain's turn to serve. She waz crying, we all were. But you know what? She got the serve in and no one got it. I ran to hug her as I screamed her name I hugged her not caring about the pain anymore. After hugging her I hugged my best friend in the team. She didn't cry she was just laughing at me and trying to get me to stop crying.

And then I feel someone hug me, really tight. I opened my eyes and saw Marie, one of my close friends who plays for our basketball team. I hugged her back just as tight and she told me "Don't cry, don't cry! You won! Watch anime when you get home okay? You deserve it!" I was happy so I started laughing.

Anyway, my summer volleyball training starts next week monday. Only 2 hours per day and only ten days, it disappointed me. But that's okay, I'll be training in a different school so it'll be nice to make friends.

I miss the acting training I used to do though, it's okay. It's not like I'm gonna stop acting.
