its about damn time!
wow this journal has been neglected lately. its been awhile since i updated and so many things have happend the last month. i haven't had time to actually sit down and put them in here, so this journal will be long one:
my six weeks with the gymnastics team is finally over. i have mixed feelings on how the six weeks went. i spent that time with prolly the best group of good looking girls at central, and i learned alot of different things about the profession, but the time spent doing the observation definetly cut into my schedule more than i wanted to. yeah, i still want to pursue this as my career, but i didn't realize how much of a time commitment athletic training was. The final six weeks of the semester i will be with our softball team. i have a good schedule with softball- on mondays and wednesays their practices are 1:30-6 and fridays, they practice from 12-5. not too shabby. also, i know one of the softball girls so hopefully she'll introduce me to some of her teammates ;).
unfortuanetly school is school. my days are just so repetitive after 8 weeks it gets sick. i don't have time to take a shit monday-thursday. on mondays i leave my dorm at 10 and don't get done with everything til after 8. tuesdays and thursdays are pretty much the same (classes are 10-4); except i do have to work mid to 4 on tuesday nights (which isn't bad cause i work with kat and i get along awesome with her). i'm doing good in all of my classes so far except for chemistry, which i have a C in. i screwed up on the only test, and grade, we have had so far this semester because i did not study enough. now, i know i have to actually go to lecture because it doesn't help when you only make it to two of the four lectures during the week.
just a little after the last entry, our associate members got their big brothers. i was hesitant at first if i wanted another little because i had one last semester, and i know the financial constraint i had this semester, but i took another one anyways. josh, my new little brother, is cool as hell. he doesn't drink or party too much because he's one of those guys who can have a hell of a good time without alcohol (well, i guess i'll have to change that). Also, our formal was two weeks ago in grand haven, which is about 10 minutes from grand rapids. i went to formal with jacqui, and drove down there with drew and his date, kristen. i had a great time. i was smashed to say the least. at one point during dinner, i guess i ate the little butters that were on the table. needless to say, as the night went on, i became more drunk and shit hit the fan with jacqui. i went without talking to her for a week after formal, but we are back to speaking terms. i thought jacqui and i had something going. i liked her so much at one point this semester, but she didn't feel the same way in return. i guess i'm going to stay single a little while longer.
sadly, also, two weeks ago, my great aunt cesilia died from a massive heart attack. she was hilarious and always made me laugh whenever i spent time with her. i feel really bad because i came home the week she was in the hospital, before she died, and did not get a chance to see her. i know she's in heaven with my dog and grandpa though.
as i finish on an upbeat note, i'm heading back up to school on sunday to finish my last eight weeks of my second year in college. its been an awesome year filled with alot of great memories. here is to the rest of the semester!
Until next time...peace out
