Hey guys, I am back!
I also have some very good news! I have made a semi-pro team in Spain! I joined at the end of season so we only have 4 games left, then the cup. It is called the SuperLiga that I am in, and my team is Prainsa Zaragoza Futbol Femenino. God knows whats best because I am so happy here. First of all my team is so nice, and everything I was looking for. They have made me apart of the family, and want me to be here. I live with 2 girls on the team, Marieta and MaiTei. They are so funny, and are silly like me. I live in the heart of the city of Zaragoza, which is beautiful! I can walk everywhere. Also the food here is so good and fresh! Marieta is a really good cook and she is teaching me how to cook, because lets be honest I know nothing. So I have my own room, my own keys, Im all set! because I joined so late the club is just paying for my stay, food, and needs. We will see next season in August how much I will get paid! Whatever it is it doesn´t matter, I am so happy to be playing soccer with a great group of girls. The jerseys are Blue, which i´m stoked on because it reminds me of the Blues haha! I could not be happier, I am living the dream! I also get to learn a knew language! So far I habla poco espanol. I am so glad God lead me here because it is so much better than it was in England. The weather, the location, just everything really fits! If anyone wants to visit spain you have a place with me! Also I think I am coming home May 12 for my graduation and to gather my things, I hope to liev in Spain for awhile. SO lets get together when I get home!
Lo siento if there are a lot of spelling errors i have to type fast on amigas computer!

I know its been forever!
Yoo Yooo,
I know its been so long so here is a recap on my life :)
I went to Blackpool and stayed with Nana Wynne. My moms mom. She does not have internet so I didn't get to post. Nana Wynne is the cutest thing anyone could have in their life. She just wants to make you tea all the time! She is so funny, and sings and dances all day long.. I see where my mom and I get it, its in our blood. It was great updating her with everything going on back in cali. We talked a lot about my brothers, and what they are up to. I also got to see Trevor, Nana Wynnes brother. He is very intelligent and writing a book. I loved being around him and Wynne they are so opposite.
So then I went to Germany to visit Julia, my friend who stayed with us in SC and went to CVCS. She is from Germany, and studied abroad at our place. I could not Blog there because when i went to my blog the words were in german, weird! Germany is amazing, and I loved it! I went to Cologne and Dusseldorf. I saw a beautiful Cathedral. It was breathe taking! I drank Kolsh, the beer of Cologne (each city makes their own special beer) and ate weird funky german stuff. haha Also their GYM was wild, they have everything from machines, saunas, food, drinks, and tanning bed, all included. So I bought a day pass and after my cardio decided to go in the sauna....well lucky me (not) there were about 3 naked guys just showing their junk, so weird, I guess its a Europe thing..i was not prepared. so i sat there awkardly in my towel. haha.
What was cool was that the gym had the Vibe machines that Brittney's mom uses in her O2 wellness center. Europe of course is ahead of us on health, so it seems. Everyone walks and rides their bikes. I love how crowded the streets always are.
I walked all around, talked to the people, tried to speak german, and went out for the night life! It was so much fun.
So soccer update. Confidence is gone, I mean completely gone, but ya know what I will not stop till I tried my everything. I am talking to a team in France, Spain, and Italy! In two weeks I have try outs in spain so lets hope this works out because i can speak spanish, not italian or french! If it does not work out, I have been talking to a team in Switzerland, a lot. The coach really likes my view of soccer and likes my video, he has already said I can be on his team! This is great news, but it is not semi pro, just a good league. I don't care about the money anyway, just need some to live :)
So I am back in England now, training, and hopefully Spain works out! I think I just need to find a way to get my confidence back. Im worried I am not the player I used to be.
Miss you all!! And don't think I will be coming home anytime soon, ICE LIEBE EUROPE!
