Experiencing the thrill and sweat of a locker room...
Okay so due to the fact that I am female, I can't experience the LOCKER ROOM, but I get to experience the thrill and sweat of basketball practice! I love it! And yes, there's a lot of sweat... Those boys are great. I'm going to be sad in 2 weeks when it's over for me, but I will be at the game that Tuesday in the Rose Rowdies cheering like crazy! Meaghan and I finally got all of our competencies done today! (we had to do thumb taping and compression wrap, knee, thigh, and hip compression wraps, and arch taping) So we chilled in the corner of the gym doing that during practice, lots of fun, lemme tell you.
Yesterday rocked! "Slept in" until 9:30, I tried to go later, it just didn't work. :( Then went over to the football game at noonish... It was pretty cold and spitting snow and rain randomly. The game ended so well, James is amazing! We then went down to talk to Jason and then James, and hung around there for quite a bit of time. It was really cool to be around when this guy from a sports management company could finally talk to James (since it was after his last game) and they were talking about what NFL teams have expressed interests in him. James is such a cool guy and an awesome football player. Then there were lots of pictures taken, and we hiked over to the hotel to watch more football, eat pizza, and just have loads of fun. Also to watch the show of the Southern construction workers walking back and forth across the balcony... and Katie & Emily going upstairs to get Cherry Coke because "there isn't any Cherry Coke downstairs" It's always a lot of fun with all of those people, I'm so glad that I get to be a part of it! Then Katie, Robyn and I went to the Theatre-on-the-side to watch "Apartment 3A".... that was awesome! Really made me think, and really made me want to fall in love. When we got back I basically crashed after a bit.
Today: "slept in" until 9am... I have become a morning person, it's crazy! Went to church with Jacki, which is always great! She had to leave a few minutes earlier than me, so I just left at the same time to cause less disturbance. Then I had enough time to eat breakfast with Katie before basketball, which was so yummy! They had great ham & turkey & cheese bagel things that I added scrambled eggs to, so good!! Then I met Meaghan to walk to basketball. I already talk about that enough, so we'll skip through the gory details. hehe... I came back and ate "lunch" with Tashi at 4, and made a fool of myself by singing and dancing to the radio while I ate. I didn't really, but my imaginary audience tells me I did (there were 5 basketball guys a table away from us, I know they weren't watching, but oh well). Then I talked to Katie for longer than I should have while I was supposed to be studying (I am supposed to be studying right now too). We went to Chinese for dinner, and then I finally came back and started studying for anatomy lecture (one of my three exams tomorrow). Amanda called in the middle of that and gave me a little break. I just got done going through the lecture notes so I'm going to move onto nutrition after this break.
THOUGHTS....
Double Bubble is so gross. I mean, it's great when you first start chewing it, but it loses flavor in less than 5 minutes and then is nasty.
I will be bold and ask him to hang out. It couldn't hurt. I either get to hang out with him, or it doesn't work out and will then be proud of myself for taking a chance. That, and Amanda told me I can't talk about him again unless I ask him to do something with me. I'm just looking to spend time with him and get to know him, because he's been an awesome guy in the small random times I've talked to him, and he could be a great friend, ignoring the fact that I have a huge crush on him. It's just hanging out. Harmless. Baby steps.
Tomorrow is going to suck... 8-8:50: trig, 9-9:50: physiology lecture, 11-12:50: anatomy lab exam, and anatomy lab, 1: anatomy lecture exam, 4: nutrition exam, 6-7:15: human growth and development... but I can sleep in on Tuesday!!! Two basketball games on Tuesday... Women's at 5:30 and men's at 7:30... be there! I will be, well for the guys, but I'll be in the building during the women's getting ready for the guys.
Double Bubble really does suck, it lost it's flavor from when I said it first to when I'm now saying it again. GRR!
