Lame, I know, but that's my dad for you. :D
So. I haven't updated in a wicked long time (not counting the riddle thing). Here's my last two-ish weeks:
1) Steph called. I can't really put into words how excited/amused/crazyhappy I was when I got her voicemail[s]. It was just one of those moments where you can't really comprehend anything but pure joy for about 10 minutes, & once you get it, you smile so long & so hard that your cheeks ache. :]
2) We won the North vs South soccer game. It was pretty intense - we made posters for it the night before & everything. I would elaborate on the game, but it really wasn't all that exciting. South scored early on in the first half, & we spent the rest of the game trying to hold the lead.
3) Last Friday was Alexandra's birthday, & her mom picked us up from school. When we were driving away, the car in front of us switched to the other lane without looking, & a car in the other lane that was going like 60mph (in a 30mph zone) rammed into the one that just switched lanes. We were literally five feet from the crash, it was so crazy. Parts flew everywhere when the collided, & Mrs. Donaldson had to give her name & number [& age, for some reason...] to the police because she was an eye witness.
4) Mayesha wrote an article for the newspaper! It was like last Wednesday or something lol, but whatever. I was excited. Congradulations, yo.
5) Haha, I made the front page of the sports section last Friday. The picture they put in was fricking hilarious. There's a scan of it on the telegraph's wesite
here.
6) Tuesday was my cat Tango's 16th birthday. He's so old. :(
7) Omg, so this time next week I'll be traveling to my brother's wedding. How cool is that? Caitlin's such a sweetie. She's been sending me & the other bridesmaids all these e-mails saying how excited she is. :]
8) I really like my social studies teacher. We acutally learn useful shit in that class. Wierd, right?
9) Me & Nora want to plan a JV Soccer Reunion. I think it'd be amazing. I loved that team.
10) My cleats broke, & I bought new ones. I hate them. They gave me major blisters on the backs of my heels, & they don't...feel right. I'm considering just wearing my old cleats to tomorrow's game, even with the holes.
11) I watched Tristan & Isolde last Saturday with Alexandra. It's my new favorite movie.
12) I broke someone's knee when we played Central last Tuesday. It was a clean play - I was defending her & the ball was on her foot, & so I kicked the ball & her knee kinda...died. She got carried off the field & everything. It's gonna suck if we play them during play-offs though (which we most likely will), because their whole team hates me now.
13) The lady who works in the career center in my school told me my handshake sucks.
14) I wore The Empathy Belly today for my child growth & development class. It's basically this 35 pound strap on pregnancy-belly. Lol, it was interesting how many dirty looks I got in the hallway from people who thought I was pregnant for real.
15) Our school's doing a job-shadowing thing on the 23rd, so I have to go make some calls to my shadowee.
G'night then.
