Rachelspotblog: October 2009

So everything has been a little crazy lately, as you can see. It's been over a month since my last blog (sad), but things are very busy. Volleyball season is underway, and we've had a lot of ups and downs this year. 3 weeks ago 8 out of the 14 girls (including me) on our team were all out at the same time because of the flu, and i think we are just now getting completely over it. Then, last week, Kimi our libero did something to her back, so she's out. We've lost games that we could have won, and I've been more than frustrated with myself and my team several times. I'm not sad that this season is ending in 4 weeks. (unless we go to the national tournament).

On a different note, living in Nashville is tons of fun. Two nights ago I went to a Copeland/Relient K show (wasn't that excited for Relient K). I loved it, and I met Aaron Marsh, the singer of Copeland and shook his hand and got really really star struck. When Relient K played I felt like I was in high school again, mostly because i was surrounded by teenagers, but they also played a few old songs from back in my day. It made me happy. Then last night Jess and I went to a CD release party for the band that writes some of the music that they play at my church, and it was good except we were an hour late so we were only there for 30 minutes before the show was over. Oh well. Next Time.

Pretty much all the other free time that I have is spent playing guitar and trying to write songs, so we'll see how that works out. I'm excited about music these days. God is reminding me that music is my passion, not volleyball.

I haven't taken many pictures this year, i'll try to get better at that. But these pictures are from a friend's wedding last weekend. Jessica's boyfriend's roomate from last year, good times. :)
