That's ridiculous.
Danny and I aren't starting tomorrow because we missed practice. We were getting some math help because we're failing sixth period because we have to miss class for games. We expected the team to still be practicing at 4:30, but once we got on the field, everyone was packing up. So we "missed" practice. In four years of baseball, I've never missed a practice, the one that I didn't "attend" last year, coach told me to go home and rest because it was the day after I pulled my hamstring.
I get that you have to punish whoever breaks the rules, even seniors/captains whatever. But even when we told you we're failing the class, that we'll be late, and one of our other coaches was in the room with us while we were doing our work, jeez.
On a better note, I think I did pretty well on the Physio test today, we'll see what I got tomorrow after we grade. No more Spanish test, a project took it's place in the grade book. Stats test on Monday since I can't take it tomorrow because of a game, more time to study, maybe more time to get homework in too.
Still, baseball has never gotten in the way this much, if my grade continues, I'll be tempted to quit. Seriously, it's college, or a losing team with no passion. Everyone wants to win, sure, if they think that, they sure as hell don't show it during practice, or treat each other that way.
It's getting tot he point where my points are just so inadequate that it doens't seem like I can even get it to a C to protect my acceptance letters. I can't put all the blame on missing the period on game days, but we've had 10 games, so that's 10 periods I've missed of notes, review, and classwork and quizzes. It's hard for me to understand things by reading it, or even listening to a lecture, I need to go through it step by step with someone and myself. So either way, it's hard to learn and implement. Can't keep up with homework if I just don't get it and I can't do homework if I have no idea how to go about it despite examples and directions in the book there for me. Already stopped watching my shows, no more House, Bones, 24, CSI: Miami-NY-LV, The Mentalist, Lie to Me, Flashpoint and Numb3rs. Haven't played video games in two months. Haven't gone out for awhile, can't remember.
FANTASTICS doens't feel the same, but whatever, get it over with next week.
New goals: Less community service, I have enough with 127 hours, 15 to graduate. More library time, homework groups at my place are productive, but still a good amount of distractions, closing time provides some motivation as a deadline.
