I know I haven't written a blog in months, but geez, there aren't enough hours in the day and enough days in the year. Sorry for depriving you guys of blogs, but I had to reassure everyone that me and the girls are as lively as ever and have just been taking a break since this year has been jam packed with CS action.
I have been receiving SO many messages asking about the team and wondering if we were still active and playing. Trust me, the community would be the first to know if we were even thinking of disbanding or relocating to another organization. The fact that we have been with SK since 2006 baffles the shit out of me. Has the time really passed by that fast? And now 2010 is quickly approaching... I just wonder where is this year going to take us?
Sometimes I wish we would have went to more tournaments throughout the year. We started the year having a bootcamp in Chicago at the new Steel office. I am so grateful the tour I made on video was a definite hit on the website! It is always nice to be able to provide something new on the website so the community can get a glimpse of the opportunties that are presented to us.
What the hell else did we do throughout the year? It is such a blur to me now... I just remember being in a million online leagues and having matches every day of the week. I just recall being so mixed up on what matches were which days. We are not going to make the same mistake in 2010 and will have to stay focused in just one league at a time if possible.
Christine and I were fortunate to go to Leipzig, Germany to help out at Games Convention. Playing around with the crowds and helping them become aware of the best sponsors on Earth was super fun. Who knew we would be such great MC's??? Actually, let's not lie to ourselves, we knew we would be fking awesome... ^_^
Going to Mexico was definitely the highlight of the year. Not only is it always exciting to go somewhere you've never been, but the food there was so AMAZING and even today, I can't stop thinking of the tacos and the damn green hot sauce. Aside from the great company and food, doing well throughout the tournament was such a confidence booster. We had been working hard throughout the year to place well at a male tournament and I think we really were able to prove to ourselves that our goals are possible.
I can't wait for the new year to start and to be able to see my girls again. We were only able to see each other a couple times this year, so obviously everytime I see them, it's a treat. I'm sure 2010 will be as exciting as ever and I'm ready to rock for another year!!!!
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!!! Take care and drink a nice cold brew for me.. Cheers! :)
