update!

Wow! So after months and months of not writing on here i figured it was time to update everyone. First off I havent been updating this for awhile because we lost the interenet in our rooms, my computer charger is broken and i would have to pay to use the interenet so I borrow my friends computer when I want to use the computer.Excuses, excuses, excuses right.. But no more excuses I am goin to try and update more often.
OK so I guess i should start from where I left off, which was around Christmas time. We had a break in the season for the holidays and I was able to come home for about 2 weeeks to spend Christmas and New Years in California. It was great but I was also so jet lagged the whole time! I basically was a hermit in Hemet and went to bed early and woke up early. But I did get to see a few friends and have a good time with them! Right before I left for Christmas the president of my volleyball team sat me and the other foriegner player down and talked to us about a situation the team was having. Alot of the girls had a probem with the coach and they had decided to fire him, leaving me and Svetlana with a few options, leave Cyprus and find another team or we could come back and I would be the coach. Well, that was a surprise to me. I had ran a few practices for the coach because he missed practice so the girls told the president that I was a coach and they liked the practices I ran. Well, I couldnt say no to the girls because the team would have folded so as of right now I am the coach and a player. It had been a good change. We have had as many as 14 girls at a practice where as before we could not even get about 8 girls to come. The girls all love the practices and love learning about volleyball.
Here is Cyprus they have a championship and then they have another thing called the Cup. The championship is just like regular playoffs and finals and everything. The Cup is only for the top 4 teams that qualify for it. You play 2 games with a team and the winner advances to the Cup. My team made it to the playoffs and lost in the quaterfinals. But we did win and advance to the Cup. So we are one of the 4 teams playing for the Cup. We wont play the Cup games until the middle of March or end of March. So keep your fingers crossed for us!!!
