I’m Not Bitter, Just Cynical











{August 9, 2008}   Uniforms…

Well, it’s time to tell you about the tennis team uniforms. One of the good things about tennis is you can wear really cute outfits while playing. I am a serious tennis player, but that doesn’t mean I don’t like cute tennis clothes.

The first part of our uniforms is the team tee. It’s designed by the seniors every year. This year it’s going to be tie-dye, but that’s all I know about it.

The second part is a skirt. You can get either a fitted straight white skirt or a black skirt with a flare at the end. I’m getting the black. :)

The third part is the two pleated skirts and a sleeveless polo. The skirts are pleated all around except for the front part, which is straight. One is plain and one is plaid. The polo has a small tennis symbol near the collar.

The last part is the dress. It is all white except for two parts on either side. They’re pretty cute. :D

Unfortunately, my mom has to fit the polo and dress for me because they’re two big. And yes, I have the smalls, but they don’t have any extra smalls.



{August 7, 2008}   :(

I’m so sad. One of my friends got cut from the tennis team. There are now 8 juniors, 2 sophomores, and 2 freshmen. The freshmen are me and my other friend.

But it makes me very mad because only three people (all freshman) were cut. Really,  the team could have held those three people. All it’s doing is discouraging freshmen from coming out for the team! >:(

And now I’m in a very strange spot, where I’m going to be playing anywhere from number 3 singles to number 1 or 2 doubles, though we may be accused of stacking if I were in number 2 doubles. Coach says she wants to find the best doubles teams and who does well at singles, etc.

Then there’s this Meet The Team Night that we have to go to, and even Coach doesn’t really know what it is. She says we’ll introduce ourselves and then the other fall teams will introduce themsleves and there may be some food. I like food.

I have a little over a week before school. :/
