What I hate about being a volleyball player is that when we play a friendly game of volleyball as a rally everyone goes "oh my gosh (my name) you play volleyball and you cant even play right now" and when I actually play like when I play in volleyball they say "oh mt gosh such a show-off" like ...

2:50 falling on your knees when you're taking a serve or an attack is one of the biggest mistakes you can make.

No, volleyball isn't as easy as it seems.
You work against gravity a lot, somerimes it hurts and sometimes even within the team there's so much competition and anger.
BUT it is so empowering and fun.
Gave me so much and helped me grow in confidence and strength.
I miss it an awful lot!
