It is Monday, I am tired. I think I echo the thoughts of everyone on campus when I say that school is really starting to kick in and the back to school fun is fading away. I had a test this morning on international relations theory/philosophy, and then at 12:30 I have a social psych test and then a quiz on research design right after that. Tonight I have practice. Tomorrow I have a softball recruit spending the night with me and then she's following me around all day Wednesday. I have practice Friday, Saturday and Sunday and Allie is coming to visit this weekend as well. Big week!
Although it will be tiring, I enter this week with the knowledge that I can climb mountains. I mean this literally, as last Saturday the softball team did a team building activity which involved hiking a 3.5 mile trail up and down a mountain (in comparison to most mountains, however, this was a hill) while tied to each other by the wrist. We were in teams of four and were given one gallon of water and one 5 lb medicine ball per team. We were also given a map of the path we were supposed to follow and were allowed to bring one cellphone just in case. It took us about an hour to finish, we ran whenever it was possible and I think I almost sprained my ankle about a hundred times on rocks and roots. The best part of the whole trip was that it was a beautiful morning, the sun was shining and I got to have a really cool adventure with three of my teammates. I was completely exhausted afterwards but it was very worth it.
That's my story for today! I'll check back sometime next week probably.
