Wow ok so i havent made a blog in forever...Im doing well in bowling.

As for going to the Nationals, i won YBC 2 yrs in a row ('07 and '08) and i won the Carl Malcolmson scholarship award. In the same year ('08) I won the CTF Nationals as well.

As for internatinal tournaments, I had gone to the Tournament of the Americas 2 yrs in a row and the first year the team won silver for all-events and then the second year me and my partner won gold =) Then i was chosen to go to El Salvador to bowl in the pabcon under 20. I didnt come home with a medal but it was close.

I made Team Canada again for next year Pabcon under 20 in Colombia.

I just have to wait and see if i make the Quebec team for YBC and CTF and see if i can win YBC for the 3rd year in a row!!

This weekend I had gone to Huntingdon to bowl in the YBC provincials to qualify to go to the Nationals in May. There were 7 other girls who i had to compete against. I did not think it would be that difficult but I was wrong. One of the other girls started off strong and i did not. I bowled like crap (981 for 5 games), but i ended up WINNING by 3 pins at the end. I was very nervous but I did it!

I also made the CTF provincials to qualify to go to another nationals in May as well. So for the YBC I am going to Edmonton, Alberta and for the CTF I am going to Sault Ste Marie, Ontario.

This is the first time i made CTF and YBC in the same year, 2 years in a row =)

May will be one heck of a busy month! The beginning of May is the YBC, the middle is Team Trials to qualify to be on Team Canada and then the end is the CTF.

I also went to Edmonton, Alberta on May 31- June 4th to represent the intermediate girl of Quebec at these nationals. I didnt do quite as well as i wanted to. The first day was teams event and i bowled alright and so did the senior girl but the 2 young ones gave up at a point and that mad us mad. We only won 2 out of 7 of our games so we had no way in winning a medal. The seond last game on that day i came out of the ball wrong and i pulled tendons in my arm and finger so it was hurting. I didnt let that get to me tho. The next day was mixed doubles and me and my partner bowled amazing. We won all 7 of our games so we won the gold medal. The last day was singles and by that time my finger was kind of getting to me. I bowled like crap, only winning 2 out of 7 games. I tried to bowl my best because there was all events to focus on because i was 1st. The last game i was only up by 15 pins and i bowled a bad game and the other girl bowled a good game so she ended up winning gold and i won silver. So i wasnt able to be going to the American Zone tournament. They said they take the top 2 girls in the tournament to go to T of A and we all thought i was the second girl and they gave me the papers and everything, only to find that a junior beat me by 6 pins! I was really upset and mad. But hey, theres always next year as i say.
