The Power of Friendship

What do you consider the perfect friend?
Someone who is funny, caring, accepting, sympathetic, supportive, outgoing, appreciative and any other positive adjective?

That's how I feel that friends should be like and I am not willing to be satisfied with anything less than that.
I am also lucky enough to have found multiple friends that meet that criteria!

To me, friendship is a two way thing. In order to have good friends you need to be a good friend yourself.

I always try to be the best friend I would want to have.
 Friends are vital to being happy and enjoying what I do.
Me and my two best friends enjoying the summer :)

Team Struggles

This is my second year on the varisty soccer team.
Yesterday we had a game against Mankato West, a team that we have never lost to.

Until now.
This isn't our first fluke of season.

We are starting to no longer be able to use the excuse 'just an off game'

As a team, we are debating whether our drive and passion to win is going down, it's our teams young age, or if it's just lack of skill by losing valuable seniors this year.

We are having constant changes in our formations, line ups, and positions.

Yesterday at practice we had a team talk and are ready to make a radical change in the way we word.

To break down the discord on the team, negativity is completely outlawed. Constructive critisism is okay though. But the negativity towards players, units, other teams, or coaches all need to stop.

We are ready to step over our disagreements and negativity and become the family we have been through out all the other seasons.

Getting Started

So before I actually start blogging twice a week I'm going to quick write a starter blog so anyone can get to know me.
My name is Kristina Larsen and I am a tenth grader.
I have a mom and dad that live together and an older brother named Kyle who is a senior this year.
I enjoy playing soccer, being on dance team, and running in track.
Traveling is something that really interests me and I hope to be able to travel a lot more as the years go on.
Another hobby I really enjoy is drawing or making creative things.
In the little amount of free time I get between school, sports, friends, and homework, I enjoy reading a great book in bed.
I enjoy laughing and just having a good time with the people I love.
