Sunday
So, our second soccer game was a joke. We ended up only having three subs and we were all ridiculously worn out. The whole game was played in slow motion. We lost 4 or 5 zip and we really didn't seem to care. I mean, we obviously wanted to win, but we just couldn't put in the effort. The game at noon today was much better. It was raining hard for a few minutes and always wet, but that made it kinda fun. We all played hard and were winning for a lot of the game, but lost in the end 2-3. It was sad, but ok. It is just a tournament, not the actual season.
I came home and watched the Red Wings lose. It was terrible. They were winning 1-0 and then they let the Anaheim Ducks score with 47 seconds left (granted they had a two man advantage because we committed a penalty and the pulled their goalie, but still). Then, the Ducks scored in Overtime and won. I was furious. Now the Ducks are leading the series 3-2. It's not impossible for us to win the series now, but it sure is harder. If only we didn't lose that lead. In a way, the Red Wings kinda reminded me of my soccer team in today's game. We actually have a lead and we blow it. So frustrating!
Later, I watched Run Lola Run for the first time, which is a really famous German movie. My LAST German class is tomorrow night. I have to study so much for the final test. I'm going to fail, I just know it. Anyway, I was watching the movie because if we watch any German movie and write a short summary of it, we can get extra credit, and I really need it this semester. It was good, but not in the way I was expecting. I mean, it was interesting and I know that it had a lot of revolutionary camera and movie-making techniques in it, but I don't feel like I got a lot out of the plot. It didn't really seem profound to me or anything like I was expecting. But, it was still good. Now, I have to go to sleep because I will be up late tomorrow due to German. After this is over, I will have some long term projects, but it's basically home free. I can't wait til I can just spend as much time as possible with my friends!
