"You Remind Me Of My Kitty"

So, it's my birthday. Nothing particularly special planned for today. I got about 50 posts on my Facebook wall with Birthday wishes so that was really nice of everyone. I went to class looking cute (P.S. Riding a bike wearing a skirt is not as hard as I thought it would be) Then I went back home took a nap made some dinner and had practice. It was sort of a frustrating practice but I survived relatively well. Then when I was walking back from practice what to my wondering eyes should appear but...Andrea! It was awesome that she came up for my birthday. It was great to see her. She gave me the movie Snatch and a really adorable note (and yes, it did make me cry a bit). Louise gave me a Mahjongg game for my laptop. I haven't installed it on my computer but I have a feeling that it will eat up hours of my life. Right now, Chris is playing some new rugby songs and they are rather amusing so now I shall end my entry.

Deep End

I am kind of freaked out right now. We have a game tomorrow. We are you playing two A side games against Central and Western. This means that I will be playing in an A side game. Yesterday's practice kicked my ass. I couldn't go on when we were doing sprints. It felt like my lungs were bleeding. Normally, no one calls me out for stopping but this time Abe told me to get my ass going. He was nicer than that but that's what I did. I was crying while I finished. I had no energy left to run but I kept going. I need a lot more work on my body but I think that I have the mental toughness to do it. In academic news, I got a 100% on my first dictation but kind of bombed out on the second one. Everyone sucked on it so she is changing up the set up for the next quizzes. Microeconomics is still really easy. I'm really glad that I took Econ in high school so all of it is old hat. I'm sort of worried about foreign policy but I'm really interested in the stuff that we are covering so the readings are so much easier to complete. I guess I'm just anxious about taking my first 300 level class.
