Catalina Island Trip



Arriving to board the ferry.
Adventure is out there! (until next time)

Charades with the coach and some of the girls. (there was more girls playing though)

Today the Southlands boys and girls soccer team were going to Catalina Island for the girl's first 2 season games and I believe the guy's 2 pre-season games against Avalon High School. We were to spend Friday and Saturday at Catalina Island for those 2 games. On our way to Long Beach it was raining the entire time and super cold. We arrived at the terminal like around 9:40 and had to wait for the 11 o'clock ferry to Catalina. That waiting consisted of playing Spoons and other competitive card games with some of the girls from my team. We were 10 minutes away from the departure when our coach gets a call from the athletic director from Southlands that the game was cancelled :( The city cancelled the game and would be rescheduled on a later date due to the rain. We had to wait another 2 hours for the bus to take us home. Even though it got cancelled, I thought it was awesome that we got to bond with our teammates by hanging out and playing charades. Even our coach was playing!

Southlands Christian HS vs Blair HS


On Tuesday it was our first pre-season game against Blair High School. It was a home game for us, so was a lot of parents cheering us on. This game was a friendly but my coach said if we won it would count for us in the actual soccer season. One of the main things my coach said was to have fun on the field and to be safe. I honestly think we did what she said. We made good passes, abundant amount of goal opportunities and had good communication. We had the other team on their toes. I have to say that I was a bit nervous during warm-ups because it was my first high school soccer game. I also had the opportunity to be captain alongside my teammate Diana. We got to choose if we kicked off or took the field first. It was the first time being captain for a high school soccer team. 


Praying before the game. God gives us strength!
1...2...3 SOUTH POLY!!!
Captains! (Diana and I)
After goal celebration.
Half time talk on how we did in the first half and what we could
change for the second half.
I played wearing jersey #41
The final score was 3-1. I scored twice and Diana scored once.

Blog 9: EQ



1. I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ.

2 a. What is the most important factor in healthy weight loss?
I believe this does not meet the EQ criteria because this sentence is not specific. What is the group age? Female or male? Those are important factors you should add. Adding this would also help with specific research.
 
b.What is the most important to securing a criminal investigation?
I also don't believe this meets the criteria. There are so many criminal investigation you have to be more specific.

c. What is most important in creating a hairstyle that best satisfies a customer?
Pretty good EQ.  But what kind of customers are they referring to? There is some decent research.

d. How can an Anesthesiologist best treat chronic pain?
The question can be debatable and have good research. The only problem is what kind or body pain? there are many, it is too general.

3. What is the most important factor in winning a U-18 girls soccer competition?
