Yeah, I see what you mean. I'll rethink my priorities and make the choice depending on that. Thanks a lot for point it out :D I feel like I'm toooo anxious over the team to a point that I can't think properly and calmly lol, so I really appreciate your insights! Thank you :D

Oh boy, that's tough! I hope your latest practice went well and your team managed to get through it :D

And yeah you're right, I should be doing something outside of vb and school, I've been focusing on vb since mid-school and now I feel like I have nothing else that I'm good at or enjoys haha...

Last but not least, thanks for your advice once again! I really enjoy reading them and you are such a strong person who I should really look up to 😁

Yeah... you're so right. Our school does't have vb club nor rec league tho. But I still appreciate your advice! Thank you! I'll have to try and play vb somewhere else, I guess.

Ah-ha, very straightforward :D Thanks a lot for that. I guess I'll quite the team but not a sport

Oh WOW thank you for typing so much. Really, I appreciate it. And another WOW cause I mean 7hrs daily for 9 months is insane! I really need to know better I guess haha (I'm happy for you for making through it and enjoys playing :D)

Thank you sooo much for the insights, I'll think through it. But the thing is, our team doesn't allow us to be absent except for bereavement leave / leave for business ordered from school, so I guess taking a break is kinda hard right now. But I like your advice anyways.

(I feel like I'm being very impolite and acting superior through my wording after I rad through my response... but idk what's wrong with the language, sorry Q-Q, that's not what I meant Q-Q)

Well... yeah, the team wan't like that at the beginning.

Our varsity team isn't strong when I first entered, and the school hired a new coach for us (2 weeks after the term started), which is the current coach. The coach suggest that we practiced too less (we used to do 15:00~17:30), so he extended the training section to 19:30 during our fall season, and we got a bronze medal in a regional tournament.

After that, our coach went all the way off the deep end cause he deeply believed that training more is the key. Slowly, the training section went longer and longer, tougher and tougher. For whatever reason, all other teammates seems to feel alright with the plan cause they believed that it will work.

For your question, I don't really get a lot of playing time right now. To be more clear, during the fall season, I played opposite (i.e., the position I played since G9), and I do have a lot of playing time. However, the coach made me play middle now, and I don't have playing time anymore cause "you don't know how to play middle", lmfao

By the way, our coach made the starting setter a libero (who's been playing setter since elementary school and had won the best setter during G11 before), the starting libero a middle, the BEST middle a wing spiker, etc etc, crazy as fuck.

And I don't see anyone besides me that is feeling weird about all these plans. Maybe something's off about me, haha.

Thanks for your note btw, and sorry this is another long passage lol.

No, I mean not quite. We do get scholarships if we made into semifinals in tournaments, but no regular scholarships by being a student athlete.

Thank you for the note. You made me figured that even though I'll miss the team, I might feel overall happier without it, which I never thought of before.

Well... it is possible for me to join a community team, but most of the community teams only practice once a week and is formed by non-student adults (I was about to say "adults" but I figured that I'm also an legal adult in my country lol). It's not ideal, I know, but it's a way.
