This post used to contain pictures, but due to new storage limitations from WordPress, I had to fix the problem and decided to create a new blog that works as an archive for all the posts from my two years in California. This full post can be found here.
It’s crazy how much I have going on all the time, even though I want to update my blog every day I don’t have time anymore. It’s fun though, I’ve really gotten myself a new life here :).
Yesterday morning was my first tournament in a very long time. I wasn’t nervous at all, but I actually felt confident. I’ve developed so much just in these four weeks and I don’t mind the wind and the sun so much anymore. I’ve also improved my hustling skills but my big weakest link is still the short ones right at the net.
I played with Chad and we played really well together again! The first two games we won. The third we lost by 15-13 (every game was only one set to 15), the fourth we lost as well, 18-16. And that was the poolplay. After that the elimination started. And we lost right away with 15-5 or something. Embarrassing but nice, because that meant we could eat. Grilled burritos for lunch at the beach after hours of playing was pretty nice!
Today was an awesome day too! I had a really nice sleep-in until 11am, I skyped with my mom. I can’t believe it’s just a little more than two weeks until she gets here. I can’t wait!! Then I went to the gym. I was hoping to do my routine, 20 minutes of intervals and spend some time in the jacuzzi/sauna. But I only had time for the routine before I hade to drive to Fashion Valley to met up with Moa. Jessica and Pernille were supposed to come too, but they had to work. But me and Moa had a really great time anyway. We got our table earlier since we only needed a table for two. I hadn’t been at the Cheesecake Factory since April. For dinner I had Chicken Pasta from the Skinnylicious menu and the cheesecake today was Dutch Apple Caramel Streusel Cheesecake. I love that restaurant, everything is amazing there!
Since the time was only 6pm when we were done we decided to walk around in Fashion Valley for a while. We found a really nice loose knitted shirt we both bought, but in different colors. When all the shops closed we sat in her car for like three hours, maybe it was even four, just talking. I’m really glad I’ve found her :).
This upcoming week is the last week of school for the kids. I will have a new schedule the week after, and that is gonna be nice. I’ve been doing the exact same thing for five months, it’s time for a little change. And I will have another change when school starts again in September. It’s very nice with three different schedule during this year. I can imagine it would be a little monotonous otherwise.
Now it’s time for a little sleep, goodnight!
