AGGIELAND 05
Friday after school Barbara and I went to Target and cleaned out their blue argyle socks. They already have BATHING SUITS on sale. That's crap. I love winter because you don't really have to shave or tan or anything. Bah. Then we drove down to Cole's Icehouse. It took forever to find parking because we weren't sure where it was legal to park. Had fun at the party. I actually didn't really eat anything but this crazy bean dip. I got to talk to Alyse for the first time in awhile and that was nice.
We finally got to sleep (back at my house) by 10:30ish. We had to wake up at 5 AM in order to leave by 5:40. Ouch. My dad was sick and he still drove us. It was super nice. The bus was late so we stood outside for a bit til it came. I mostly just slept on the way there. That had to be the bumpiest charter bus I have EVER rode on. Everything was vibrating and it made your head hurt. And THEN the Austin High girls decided to play all their ringtones and decide on their favorite around 7:30. So inconsiderate.
We got to Aggieland and realized that none of the coaches were on the bus. They finally told us we should get off. JV played first on the crappiest field I have ever seen. During half time one of the refs went out and was pumping the standing water off the field. Gross. We had to leave about halfway through to go play Westlake. I wish they hadn't been our first game. I got to start though. It was really surprising. We played alright, but not very well as a team. We lost pretty significantly.
During lunch we sat on the bus and watched this movie, Misery. Haha. We all got really into it. It was a horror movie about this author who gets saved from a car wreck by this lady who's obsessed with him and turns out to be a psycho. There's one part where she finds out that he wants to leave and straps him to the bed. She puts this block of wood between his feet and takes a sledgehammer to his ankles. Gah. And at the end, he thinks that he killed her and starts crawling towards the door when BAM she's right there. Every single girl screamed/gasped/something. It was great. Then Varsity played again at 2. We lost again, but still played really well. The only goal we scored was when the other team's goalie accidentally dropped the ball in the goal. Then one of the swing players was tired so I got to play with JV. It was so much fun. The defense for the other team was not very good so Emily and I just kinda chilled in the mid-field by ourselves. I got to take a bunch of shots on goal, but I didn't make any of them. Drew came to the game and that kinda surprised me. I didn't expect him to come.
We went back to the hotel and enjoyed the warmth. Went to dinner in the craziest bbq place I've ever seen. The seniors made everyone cards. It was really sweeet. We were gonna go to Walgreens after we got back to the hotel but we were all so tired. Woke up at 7 (ouch again!) grabbed breakfast, and were at the fields by 8:30. Varsity and JV played at the same time this time. We lost but...I scored the first goal of the season!! It was so great. I don't even know how it happened; some people said it was my socks. It started raining the last couple minutes so we were cold and wet on the bus. We ate at Gatti-Town. Yum. I slept the whole way home.
That's enough update for one day. Hope your weekend rocked too!
