It's Caroline, Brian, CAROLINE!: Friday and Saturday Tennis

when dating a BYU tennis player, you watch a lot of tennis. my weekends usually consist of me watching tennis from 5:30 in the afternoon to 10:30 at night... yes, 5 hours of tennis watching almost ever friday and saturday.

it's fun, i admit. and BYU won the match 5-1

but nerve wrecking at the same time.

when i watch john play tennis, and he is either winning or losing... my heart is like... t i g h t? it is just ridiculous, i get nervous, and when he gets mad at himself while playing i get nervous even more.

especially last night. the match was close for his doubles. his double partner, keaton, and him were losing and then winning, and it was super close at times too. and john was getting angry, and keaton was too, who usually doesn't get angry. i just sat there, worried that they'd lose and then i'd have to deal with the poopy mood that john was going to have for the rest of the night. but luckily, he didn't lose! they pull through and broke them in game, and then they headed to the win.

what does it mean to break someone in tennis?

yes, i was wondering about this when i first started watching john playing.

but i think i know now?

to break someone in tennis is to win a game when they are serving--because it's easier to win when you are serving-- so if you manage to win a game when the opponent is serving you have the upper hand in the rest of the set.

yes, i know a bit about tennis... at least i think i'm hoping that i'm write about what it is to break someone. not like i've almost been watching tennis for a year now... i have

tennis is tricky though, there are so many rules... maybe i'll be able to understand tennis by the time it's john's senior year at BYU, so maybe in 5 years? haha

But i'll be watching tennis for many more weekends this season..

wish me luck!

next weekend BYU plays against their rival UTAH!

wish them luck as well!! they will probably win anyways, cause utah isn't that good.
