ASIJ girls improve to 5-0, loom as Class AA title threat

What might be the best girls soccer team in American School In Japan’s history continued its torrid run Saturday, beating Yokota 1-0 on Laura Inglesrud’s ninth goal of the season.

The Mustangs (5-0) have outscored their foes 27-0. Coach Matt Whipple of Yokota (10-2) sees ASIJ, which finished seventh last year, as a legitimate threat to win the Far East Class AA title.

“They play really good defense and their transition game is strong,” Whipple said. “They’re one of the best in the Kanto Plain.”

ASIJ coach Carlos Aranda credits the play of junior Melissa Walker, a transfer from Connecticut who plays a variety of defensive positions. “We’re definitely better than we were last year,” Aranda said.

Just a side note - ASIJ Varsity Soccer won our 5th game today against the toughest in the league and beat them 1-0. We're now 5 and 0 with NO goals against us =]


Anyway, my brother and sister-in-law went to take pictures of my niece. I just needed to say, it's official, I have the cutest niece EVERRRR! I can't wait to be just down the road from them next year =]. Not to mention there will be a new little girl to welcome to the family!

I missed out last year playing soccer so I was really excited for this season. My coach is from Paraguay and played professionally there so he knows what he's doing. Here's a picture from one of my games

Springroove

Last weekend I got to go to Springroove. Unfortunately they had three different stages so I wasn't able to see EVERYONE that was there. I missed out on Rihanna cause I was in the very front for Kanye West and my friends and I didn't want to loose our spot. All my videos are up on facebook but here are a few pictures from my awesome night =]
Sean Kingston!


Kanye West

I also have pictures from N*E*R*D* and Ne-Yo but it takes too long for my computer to upload them so maybe later. OR just check out my facebook =]

Unfortunately spring break is over and we're back in Tokyo. We got to go to Bali, Indonesia and it was absolutely beautiful. My favorite vacation -- AFTER Fiji :] Here are a couple pictures. . .








Then heres a video of Kurtis playing with these cute kids from Bali. I wanted to take the girl home with me!

After we had bought the tickets and ate dinner, we were walking back to the train station when we ran into this hummer advertising the concert. :) It's going to be amazing and you all should be jealous!

Future

So many people have one of these blogs and decided I should get one too! I'm going to be off to college in 6 months and knowing my mom, she'll want more than just a weekly call. PLUS why not add this to my facebook addiction? I'm trying to get the hang of this but I know it'll come in time.

Updates on me?
Basketball season just ended and it was by far my favorite sport season throughout my high school career. Soccer season has just started and my coach is INTENSE! He played professionally for Paraguay so I'm sure that can give you a start to what practices are like. We get to run for warm-ups, do sprinting exercises, TIMED running, TIMED sprinting, oh and occasionally we get to play with the ball. Just kidding we do scrimmage at the end but I've never been pushed this hard. I know its good for me and I do feel better after running but to be honest, I don't understand people that go running for 'fun'. . .never will haha.
