Possibilities are EVERYWHERE

Ahhh, blogula!

I feel bad. Now that school's started, I'm still abandoning you! I'm sorry. I'll explain my week so far.

MONDAY, MONDAY!
Monday was the glorious (SO not) first day of school. I barely survived, seeing as I almost dropped dead when I came home from field hockey. And I didn't think it was one of my BEST first days--not by a long shot. I sort of like my classes--the people I have them with aren't all that bad. I seem to be talking a lot more. Last year I lapsed for a while when I was being antisocial, I just hope I don't go through that again. =)

Talk to me Tuesday!
On Tuesday, I was kind of rolling more into the swing of things. I'm getting used to my whole time schedule, and starting to realize I have to go to bed early if I want to survive the day. We had a field hockey scrimmage, and we won. It's unbelievable, my school's FH team is 2-0 (only they are scrimmages that don't count). That's more games than we've won in the last 3 years. And sure, it sucks major ass that I'm the ONLY junior on JV (Apparently I'm 'inconsistent.') but at least I'm a captain.

Wednesday is with it!
Today was a VERY good day. School was slightly painless--we had two physics quizzes, but they were pretty easy. I talked with a lot of people, and I'm starting to enjoy the social aspect of school. After school we had an easy field hockey practice, and after that, a whole bunch of us went to 7-11 and got Slurpees. I love those Slurpees. I cleaned up really fast and headed over to the YMCA...where I was until 9. We had a Y&G meeting and it was so cool--even though Carlos sat next to me. I really don't like him so much anymore...we'll get to that...we played super-intense nerd volleyball at the Y and had a great time--I'm still a little sweaty.

I came home, and watched the Phillies play the Mets, as you may or may not know, my favorite player Chase Utley is now back after breaking his hand. He didn't play tonight, but the Phillies kicked ASS. The last inning, there was two Mets players on base at 1st and 3rd. The batter hit a grounder to Jimmy Rollins, who turned it off to Tadahito Iguchi. Well, the runner from first had different plans and SLAMMED into Iguchi and pushed him--therefore crapping up his throw to first to complete the double play. But THANK GOD the umpire saw it, and called it an interference. The Phillies won, 2-3.

So, in a nutshell, I'm in a great happy-go-lucky mood. My dad bought me toothbrushes. (Seems insignificant, doesn't it?) But I boil them and wear them as bracelets. We'll follow up on that later.

What I was saying about Carlos--well, we kind up picked it back up again for a little while. We were talking on the phone and planning to date and such...but seeing him tonight TOTALLY changed my mind. I realized that I've been very shallow--I was much more smitten with the thought of him, and not actually him. I've FINALLY seen the light--that I can do SO much better than him. =)

Well, I'd better get out of here before my good mood wears off. Have a great day tomorrow!

I can totally relate to liking the idea of a guy way more than liking the actual guy. It always makes me feel kinda bad, but what can you do?

Kick some serious ass, and don't forget to take names

Holy shiza. I can't believe we did that. I won't keep you in suspense...but today...(Dramatic pause)...I quit fastpitch softball. I'll start at the beginning. Yesterday we had our first official slowpitch game (aka for my father's team). I went, because honestly--how can you not go to your own father's game? Not to mention, the fastpitch game was a make-up that we didn't know about until last week. So we--my older sister Devyn, a friend of mine named Ashley--went to our slowpitch game. After all, my dad needed us and we would've had to forfeit if we didn't have enough girls to play. So we sort of ditched the fastpitch game. But it was NBD, seriously. Ashley NEVER plays in a fastpitch game. She sits the bench EVERY game, yet shows up for every practice, all the time. So naturally she's going to go to the game where she gets a chance to play, and not to mention she's good at it. My sister, on the other hand, is a senior. She's paid her dues. S...

Just another Monday

I took some pictures today, figuring I knew that I wouldn't feel up to posting something gigantic. And I'm not. We had another softball game this afternoon, and even though I played for about...3½ minutes, I'm still wiped from having to spend the entire game on my feet (and add that up to my day and school, and it's cause for exhaustion). My 3½ minutes in the spotlight was when my coach decided that we were losing bad enough (We lost 17-10 or something like that) that it wouldn't do any harm to put the Junior Varsity Princess (aka moi, if you're that thick) into the game. The batter's box, to be precise. I guess I wasn't good enough to defend the field. :( Whatever. So, I must've been a lot more nervous than I thought I was, because everyone kept telling me to relax. I didn't feel nervous, but when I struck out (I went down swingin', ya bastards!) and returned to the dugout, I realized that my hands were shaking. Well, here are the pictures.....

Go on and lose it

"Everybody makes mistakes/Everybody has those days..." -Hannah Montana Yeah Miss Montana? Well, I doubt you've had the day I've had. Enter: Wake up at 6:00 in the morning on a Saturday. Get in the shower, dress, and eat breakfast. Wonder why I'm up so early? I have a Youth and Government shindig. I get ready to go, and then wake my dad up at 7:30 and tell him we should go soon. I have to be there by 9 am, and it's about a half-hour away. That translates to an hour or so with me driving (still on my permit, so Dad has to come) and the fact that we don't exactly know where the Anita Tuvin Schlecter building is. I drove fine on the way there, no one died. =) We get there, and we were kind of lost--but that wasn't that big of deal. We were still early and we found the place all right. I also found my friend from Y&G who had told me what was going on today. We stood outside the ATS building...and it was locked. There wasn't a soul in sight. Me: ...
