AP Testing

Monday was the beginning of AP testing for Anthony and Christina. Anthony has four AP classes: AP Chemistry, AP Calculus, AP US History and AP Language and Composition. Christina has one AP class: AP Environmental Science. Monday was AP Chemistry and AP Environmental Science and both Anthony and Christina came home tired; Christina told me that she was "Physically and mentally exhausted"! 

Last High School Volleyball Match

Last night was the last High School volleyball match of the season. Anthony was able to play half of each sets. Since he is still recovering from a sprained ankle, the coaches decided to put him in as a setter in the back row; this way, he didn't have to jump to block and didn't have to hit. He was happy and says his ankle definitely feels better. Club season is starting again soon, with tryouts this weekend. His Club Coach asked if he could come and help out with the tryouts which he of course agreed to!

Zombie Prom

Last week was another busy week with the final two home matches for the GVHS Boys Volleyball teams which meant last two Snack Bars to organize. To top it all off, Christina was performing in the musical "Zombie Prom", on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights. It was a fun musical, full of great dancing numbers and with a cute storyline. She had a blast but was definitely exhausted! The following photos are from the professional photographer who took shots during the dress rehearsal.  

Week of April 18th, 2016

Too busy this week to post everyday. So here is a recap of my week: Monday, Anthony and the GVHS Boys Volleyball team had a friendly game against AVHS. They played great and won. Anthony had 8 aces and 4 kills that night. Not bad for a setter!

On Tuesday, another volleyball game, this time a Foothill League game against Saugus. Despite Anthony playing awesome, the team couldn't get it together and lost. Needless to say it was a very disappointing night. 

Wednesday was the one and only quiet night. The last night, another volleyball game. GVHS hosted the Canyon High team and lost in 5 sets. On top of that, Anthony sprained his ankle in the second set and didn't return. Came home at 8:00PM tired and disappointed. And today, Christina has a group study for her upcoming AP test and Anthony has a Jazz Band performance at Canyon High. To make things even busier, he sprain the right ankle and can't drive yet. So I have to chauffeur everyone to their respective activity! TGIF!

Tall Alice

This girl did it again! Congratulations Christina for being cast as Tall Alice and Lily in Alice in Wonderland Jr. She auditioned last Sunday at the Fremont Theatre in Pasadena. The Theatre Company called "Young Stars Theatre" puts out show casting exclusively young actors. So happy fro Christina!

Frustrating Match

Last night, the GVHS volleyball team played against Hart High School. What should have been an easy win ended up going into 5 sets! They won the first two sets and lost the next two. According to Allan, even in the last set, they were trailing behind until the very end! I didn't stay for the last set. I needed to get home and make dinner so Christina would have something to eat before her Skype session with Gray studios. Needless to say that it was a frustrating match to watch! Anthony played well, despite his obvious frustration and he remained calmed and composed throughout the whole match, which is a big deal for him!

USF

On Saturday, we visited USF... a beautiful campus at the top of the city!
