August 28, 2003

Sorry I haven't written in a while, but I'm here now, and we have a lot of catching up to do. Well, right now I'm in summer school at the start of my sophomore year here at UCLA. This past summer I had so much fun. I went home for the first part of the summer, where I spent just about all of my time with my family and my former teammate, AJ Bradley. I had a great time. Besides basketball, AJ taught me to shoot pool. Though I'm not very good at it, I still have a good time.

I saw just about every single movie that came out this past summer, and I'm still looking for more to see. Most importantly, I consistently went to the gym every day, where I lifted weights and played basketball. I worked on a lot of ball-handling, so hopefully you'll be able to see the improvements.

I had the pleasure of hanging out with my mom when she wasn't so busy (my mom's a very busy woman), and I had a great time. Over this past summer, I chilled with my brother Kevin. He's always good for one or two laughs, but never three. I really enjoyed hanging out with my sisters. They both are so cute. A few of the best times were with my dad because we always discussed the upcoming basketball season, and I got pumped up every time. We have good incoming freshmen who will soon be great and upperclassmen who are improving as I speak. All you Bruin fans, make sure you get your season tickets right away. If you're not pumped about the season, call my dad, some of our players, the coaches or me, and we'll tell you exactly what the Lady Bruins have in store for you. I promise we won't let you down.

Sincerely,
Lisa "Raindropper" Willis
