"so netball isn't basketball?"

Megan, Melanie and I ventured to Geelong last weekend to watch our fourth housemate, Sarah, in her final netball game. If you are wondering what netball is, don't worry I am still kinda wondering. 


Each member has a certain job. Each job has a certain area that they can be in and things that they can do. Only a few girls can make the goals. Also, they don't dribble the ball.... And that's about all I can tell you.
 net·ball
    noun /ˈnetˌbôl/
    netballs, plural
    1. A game with seven players on a side, similar to basketball except that a player receiving the ball must stand still until they have passed it to another player
      • The ball used in this game.                                                                                                               http://www.google.com.au/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=netball+definition&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&redir_esc=&ei=5h13TszsF-KdmQXDpZz_DA#hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&q=netball&tbs=dfn:1&tbo=u&sa=X&ei=5h13TqbOL-r0mAWkiMxO&ved=0CB0QkQ4&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=8603e2d1663f9477&biw=1277&bih=593
    Pretty much a basketball goal with out the backboard. 

    Netball is mainly played by girls... Note those skirts. That's what all girl netball players wear. It is VERY different uniform than basketball. 

    I have been told that the pictures from my list of things I miss in America don't work. So here is the list:

    1. Low Prices
    2.College Football. Wreck 'Em.
    3.Hazelnut Coffee-Mate.
    4.Malt-O-Meal.
    5.Ovaltine
    6.Forever 21
    7.Dunkin' Donuts Coffee
    8. Tex-Mex
    9. A Dryer

    The list could probably continue but those were the things on my mind at the time. Some may be strange but I guess you can't help what you miss. ha.

    Well that was short and simple. I'll post more updates soon!

    heaps of love.
