one tennis season down, three more to go.

actually, i'm SUPPOSED to be at my away game at rosary right at this moment, on the bus, with my team all excited to play. but, that ain't happening. they cancelled on our game :( i swear, we had like five cancelled games this season, it sucks. a waste of my money paying for those game's gas fees and court fees! >:O whatever. the season was still fun either way.
i got to say, tennis season has been a lot more incredible then i would've ever imagined it would be. (not the fact that i wasn't on the ladder as much as i would've wanted, but i wasn't expecting to be on the ladder at all) i've realized how much tennis has dominated my life in the past three months. its all i'm really looking forward too on the weekends, or on game days, or challenge days. i can now understand what people see in sports, they see another seperate little family that stick together, no matter what. i've bonded with my jv team so much, i honestly cannot wait for next year's season to begin. speaking of next year's season.....varsity tryouts? holy crap. i can't believe the amount of self confidence i felt in the beginning of tennis. i didn't know where i was in tennis, i didn't know that there are far more people better than me out there. i'm hoping, wishing upon that tiny little star somewhere far in the galaxy, to make it. but i'm pretty sure i'm not. i realize how much i've missed out and how much i regret not starting tennis earlier. everyone has years of advantage, years of experience, and years of learning than me. i envy them. i envy how familiar they are with tennis and i haven't known even half of it. jv team is really fun though, except next year, many of the people i would've wanted to see are probably not taking tennis again, and that makes me sad. wow this is getting long.
of course i won't miss it like crazy, because i am going to be glad that i won't come home so late anymore, and that i would be able to talk to my friends more and have more time to study. speaking of studying....ahem ahem.
here come's daily tennis practice with my partner, in hope that we both get better by next year. i'm looking forward to them. i really hope that we can be good partners to practice with as well as on the courts during games next year, more than we already are. lets, do this.
one little side note to my partner:
dear doubles partner,
i really couldn't have asked more, nor think of any other parter better than you to partner up with. you've really been there for me, through my rants, through my tempers, through the losses, and through the wins. i can't express enough how i enjoyed being your partner, and sorry if i disappointed you at times where i wasn't playing to the best of my abilities. i've grown to love tennis so much with you, and i am really grateful you haven't shown the least worried when we lose. you're always optimistic when i'm not, and you always tell me its ok, even if its not. i know you'll always have my back in tennis, and that we'll both strive to become, the best doubles partners in the world.
with sincerity,
Vivian<3
