Something New

Lately I have been thinking about getting a new background for my blog, but I'm not sure about which one I should get. So I've been looking around at different websites at different backgrounds and I have found a few that I like. I'm going to put a poll up in my side-bar and you can vote on which one you like the best. I will list them by letters. (e.g. A, B, C)

Here is A.

I don't know wether this one is to....... well boring I guess. What do you think.

B.
For me I thought this one is a bit to girly, but after a bit I might get use to it.

C.
I thought this one was nice fresh, but its just so different to what I'm use too.

D.
And this is another one that I thought might be a bit girly. But it is sweet.

Please vote, I would really like your advice and opinion. Thanks

Very Nervous!!!

It is Wednesday.... just about noon and I'm so nervous, excited, worried, confident and happy about our Grand Final!!! It starts tomorrow afternoon. I think is will be the game of the season! The whole team is really looking forward to it. It will be an awesome game whatever the out come. I have only been involved in one grand final in cricket and we won, I have been in two others in hockey and lost both of them.

I will try and post tomorrow night about how we are going in the final. (It is a two day game).

Until then.

YA!!!!!!!

I'm so excited!!! U/14's won their semi final!!!! Ya!!!
U/ 12's came close to winning but we missed out. So next week, Naomi and I will be playing CB!
I'm so excited, our team is confident that we can win and I think it will be a very close match. I'm to excited to type much. I'm sucking on an ice block at the moment and I think I will shut down my computer and enjoy the evening.

Sorry!

Sorry I haven't posted in so long. I can't think of anything to post about besides things that have been happening in my life. And I have a feeling that your sick of me posting about that sorta stuff.

We have started hockey, well I haven't but our club has started I will be starting next week. I have been searching like a wild horse for a suitable hockey stick. I haven't had much luck yet, but I'm going to go to another shop sometime soon to have a look.

I am very nervous today because we have cricket semi finals this afternoon. As most of you would know, Naomi and I both play U/14's and U/12's. The semi's for those to age groups are on at the same time. So Naomi is going to go play in U/14's and I need to stay down to play U/12's. Now Naomi is usually the captain in the age group I'm going to play in, but since she won't be there, I need to take over her job and captain for the first time in one of the most important games of the year. I will have someone else to captain with me so that will be really good. I hope we win in U/14's, but not so much in U/12's:[

I know that sounds a bit wrong or unfair but Naomi agrees with me. As much as I would like U/12's to win their semi's, if U/14's wins theirs too, that would mean that I would need to go and play with U/12's again in the grand final and I would miss out on playing for U/14's. It sounds a bit weird and hard to understand.

Well..... wish us luck and....yeah, I can't think of anything else to say, oh, hope I find a good hockey stick soon:)

?!?!?!?!

I don't know what to post about!!

I guess I'll just post about sport. Coming up to the semi finals in cricket makes each game we play very important. We have one more game to play until the finals, it's making me very nervous. Although we had a great week of cricket this week, in U/14's we absolutly slaughtered them!!! They had to get 178 runs and we got them all out for 15!! That's a huge win, so we went for the outright win, but we fell short of that by two wickets. In U/12's we made 305 runs, (we broke the Junior Cricket Association record!!) I made 25 runs not out. I was very pleased with that, (it's my personal best).

We will be starting hockey in about 2 weeks, (training). Still waiting to find out what grade they want us in.

Now it is a Sunday afternoon and it is so hot outside!!! Thankfully we have an air conditioner. Oh, there is some bad news, THERE'S ANOTHER COLD IN THE FAMILY!!!!! We are doomed!! Ok, its not that bad, but with all the sport and everything, its not good. Please pray that it doesn't go through the family. (We were also planning to go for a holiday next week and its my little sisters birthday next week).

Hockey!!!

I'm so excited, next week we are signing up for hockey again!!!

It may not sound like much to you, but I absolutely love hockey. It is my favourite sport. I will be signing up for AR3, (A Reserve 3). It's a rather big achievement for me, but to others it wouldn't seem like much. I've been saving for a new hockey stick for about six months now. I still not exactly sure about which stick I will get, but I will need to choose soon. (I really really need a new hockey stick).

We lost our cricket game:( We needed 6 runs of one and a half overs, and we lost our last two wickets. It was a very good game though.
