Well, that was my final year of high school tennis. Of course I can't even start to explain the countless hours I spent practicing for that, giving it my all over the summer getting up every morning at 5:00 AM to go downtown to the YMCA and work out pouring my heart out just so I could be that much stronger or faster. But I also can't write about the huge amount of fun we had, even though it is hard to see that right now, since it is the day after my final high school match.....ever.
