I got my license!

Last Thursday I took my license test and passed. I was so excited. I could now drive to school without my dad having to take me. That Saturday my parents came home from their meeting with a car for me! It is a black 2008 Impala. It is the sport edition which is nice. On Monday I drove to school for the first time. My mom over exaggerated it too much. She was like oh honey, I need to take a picture of you to put it in the scrapbook about your first drive to school. Haha. The only thing that I'm nervous about is the parking lot. A ton of accidents happen there and I am one of those people who park the farthest away from all the other vehicles so I don't get door dings or scratches. Well anyways, I am just really happy that I got my license. It is so nice.

There is NO I in TEAM

I looked up the dictionary definition for the word "team" and it said that it was a number of persons forming one of the sides in a game or contest. I was thinking about this definition and there is so much more to the meaning of a team than just that. A team is always or always tries to be positive and have a good environment to work in. When someone on a team is not doing very well, the other members will lift up that person. On game days, the team shows positive sportsmanship and is united in one. Their goal is to win but if they don't, they don't beat themselves up about it. If the team loses, they don't come up with excuses for why they didn't win, they instead learn from their mistakes to go out and win next time. In a team, it isn't just one person doing all of the work, it is a group united as one. This is some of my jumbled up thoughts of what a team is.
