freaking cat.
Hey
Hey guys, some of you have probably noticed that I haven’t really been active lately. That’s because I’ve been busy with my other website. Yes, my other website. I now have my own independent bog that I’ve been working on for the past few days and I think that you all should check it out! After I have it up and running, I’ll rarely use Tumblr again. I have a lot more options with my other blog. So yeah, I’ll post a link to my other blog and you guys can look at it. :)
XC update
I’ve been having some trouble with this whole cross country thing. First of all, it’s still a little out of my comfort zone, and second, I’m having trouble with my entire left leg. Apparently I’ve got something wrong with my left leg (it seems like something is always wrong with me) and it’s very painful for me to run. I’ve talked to my coach, who’s been really cool and chill about everything, and he has recommended that I become a part-time manager/athlete. I obviously can’t do all of the workouts because of my leg and I probably won’t even be able to race this season. But that’s ok. I’m fine with just taking it easy so I can fix my leg problem. I went to a physical therapist today and I got some exercises that will strengthen my left hip, which seems to be the root of all my pain and suffering. I hope that I can get through this season in one piece.
Before it was cool
- kid 1: Omgggg I love this new song "Good Life" by OneRepublic!!
- me: Ok, seriously? It's been out for about a year, I liked it before it was cool. Get over it.
- kid 2: Omgggg I watched this thing called "A Very Potter Musical" and I loved it!!
- me: Yeah I've been telling you about it for a while, I liked it before you did. Whatever.
- kid 3: Omgggg I just got Pokemon Black version and I love it so much!!
- me: I bet you don't even know what a Tropius is. I'm more of a believer than all three of you hypothetical people.
- kids 1, 2, and 3: But omggg like a believer in what???
- me: I don't know if I can explain it to you...but it's like being an individual and finding what I like before it's corrupted by the masses.
At Last
Today I took a self-guided tour of the school that I’ll be attending in the fall (which is like a week from now). The building is beautiful. I think that environments affect the people that occupy them. It makes a lot of sense; it gives everyone at my last school a legitimate excuse for being so butt-faced to me. My last school made no sense. From the sky, it would look like two crossed hockey sticks with random mini-additions sprouting out of nowhere. And the people there were nasty, sad people. I’m so glad I’m getting out of there. My new school will be so much better for me. I’m really quite a sensitive person and I really enjoy being treated like I have feelings. The architecture of my new school is wonderful and the room numbers make sense and all that good stuff. I really got a lot of good vibes from that place. I’m hoping that this means I will have finally found a place where I can live my life in peace, without girls trying to steal my boyfriend because I’m better than them or people making fun of me because I’m smart or teachers thinking I’m complacent because I don’t put up a fight when I’m told to do something. I’m ready to be understood. It’d be nice to be appreciated, but I don’t want to ask too much too soon. Hopefully my new school will become a haven for me.
A Very Potter Musical
Watch it. I need someone to rant about it with. There are sooooooo many jokes that go with it…I feel so incomplete not having anyone to joke about it with. I feel like Draco Malfoy…forever alone…
Spanish
People who know me also know that I’m a Spanish-speaking BOSS. I like speaking Spanish more than I like speaking English, I just know more English so I speak more often. But I do throw a lot of Spanish words into my everyday speech without realizing it. People either give me funny looks or think I’m trying to show off. Whatever. Haters are stupid. I’m going to take some very advanced Spanish classes this school year. I can’t wait! AP Spanish is a college-level class. If I get a high enough score on the final exam, I’ll be able to get college credit for Spanish. I know I’ll get a pretty good score on the test. I just can’t wait to become fluent!
More of me complaining
So I recently had my first XC practice, right? Right. I answer my own rhetorical questions. Anyway, my legs are about to fall off and die. Every time I take a step I feel like my quadriceps are ripping in two. We worked on hills in practice. We ran 400m of flat ground and then ran 250m on a gradual incline. After doing that about three times, I wanted to stop. Too bad I had to do it FOUR MORE TIMES. I was seriously lagging behind, but the girls were really cool with it. They always tell me I’m doing a good job as I hobble by, gasping for breath. I’m surprised that the coach is being so patient with me. I think that if I actually stay with XC and push myself, I might actually have a chance at surviving this.
