Last Volleyball Practice

After the Personal Odyssey celebration, we had our final volleyball practice of the season, of this team and of my time at this school! We had a ton of food. I brought in 2 pizzas and a bunch of Gatorade, people brought in 4 different kinds of cookies, lemon bars, cake, and ice cream! I had a bunch of food, but after all the food of the Personal Odyssey celebration, I didn't eat as much as I might have another time! We made a card for our coach and everyone signed it. We also brought in a picture of the whole team for everyone to take a copy of.

We only had the gym for 20 minutes because they had to set up for another event that would be in there that night. We played a scrimmage in the time we had. It was very fun to play with the team, and I did my best. I actually had some really good dives, both in the same point, that saved the ball and got it either over, or able to be put back over the net! It was the kind of dive I had been wanting to do all season, and I was very happy that I was able to do it and show the team, and also just get the good feeling you get when you do something like that really well. Once we weren't allowed to play in the gym anymore, we went outside and played. It was really hot that day, so everyone drank a lot of water and/or Gatorade. It was just fun to have the opportunity to play, and I savored the last moments I had with my team. People had to leave early, so other people, not from the team, played with us on and off. We had more or less than 6 people on each side at any given time, and it kept changing, but we just kept playing, and it was fun no matter what.

It was our last practice of the year and it was very fun, but I was sad that I had to leave my team knowing that I would never play with them on that team ever again.
