Today our team had the most important game in this regular season. This is because the opposite team was the most strongest one in our group. The game was held in Kumagaya (soooo far from ICU!!), so I woke up at 4:30a.m. and took the early train for the game. But we lost the game.....and unfortunately, I had to go scouting, so I couldn't see the game at all... And this loss means that we almost lost the way for division 2...
Anyway, I'll write about My Conflict Management Strategies.
According to the sheet, "HOW YOU ACT IN CONFLICTS", my actions in a conflict is "Problem Solving". Also "Smoothing " is the second highest one just behind 1 point. I think I am a "smoothing" person. Basically I think conflicts are troublesome and I hate to be involved in it. (I know many people are same..) So I often give up my opinion or wish and emphasis "wa" in the certain group. This may be called as "Problem Avoiding Strategy".
However, there is a different view of such my attitude. I have been asked "This is very nice for our team, but are you really ok? Do you have your own strong idea or opinion? " When I was asked these questions, I was confused. And I found that I didn't have "me", and I just pretended that I'm a nice girl who undertake whatever other members don't want to do.
After I entered ICU and learned about critical thinking, I thought that I have to think deeply about all the things I face. And some difficult situations including some conflicts happened in our team also taught me the importance of taking some actions for the solution of the problem. This is why my highest score was "Problem Solving", I guess.
I saw Ken and his cute kid around the SCH on Saturday!
I was surprised ;p and thank you for recognizeing me!

<Chapter8: Lighten Up!>
Answer for Expedition Log. Chapter8
When I was in junior high and high school, I was belomg to volleyball club. When we have a game, whether it was for practice or official one, we cheered ourself up by encouraging each other, dancing our special dance, and our coach said us "Smile, laugh and enjoy your game!". A good atmosphere is very important for playing volleyball. So when we get a point (whatever by a completed spike or the "small wins" like the mistakes of an opponent) during the game, we celebrate it with jamping and running around the coat. That made us more successful and led the victory. I am sure that every time we won the game, we had great atmosphere and could enjoy the game. I can say the same thing for our football team except the before time of the game. Comperaed with my volleyball team, our football team have tense atmosphere because everyone concentrate their consciousness on the match. But just before the game, they raise their tension and fight the game.
Through this experience, I know that good atmosphere is one of the key for success for the team, so that celebration even for the "small wins" is very important.

<Chapter6: Core Team Values / Chapter7: Conflict>
Answer for Expedition Log. Chapter6, Q5
Although I don't feel these are "sacrifices" for me, I think I make personal sacrifices almost every day whether these are big or small things. This is about my tasks entrusted by the team as a maneger. As I mentioned before, my special post is to act as a contact person to OB/OGs. As my tasks, I have to make and send mailing-rist to all OB/OGs every time we have a news like practice plan for every month, information about the next game, acknowledgment, sometimes apology, and so on. This is very very formal one, so I have to start writing with the greetings of the season, use dificult words, and I am never allowed to make a mistake... And I also have to write blog to tell about the practice and the situation of the team about 1 or 2 times per week. These are just a part of my tasks, but it takes time.... When I began work, I used to think that why I must spare time so much and I got tired of it. However, now I don't think that these are not "sacrifice" because I realised it is important work for our team and through this work I can improve my skills.
BUT.....still sometime I get tired of what I must do...... I think it to be "sacrifice" in such a case....
I feel sorry that I always make about about our team as a topic.
.....I am crazy about it ❤
