Yes I know I haven't updated in a long time. What can I say? I'm a busy girl. As the rest of the juniors all across the land and such. I guess here's my life so far:
My time during the entire Cross Country season has not improved. But a few days ago, I got under 25:30. (25:25) when technically I should be in the 24s. I haven't made Varsity. I'm still in limbo.
Doc thinks its a plateau in my long distance training when I'm really a short distance runner. I think thats poo. But whatever. He might be right. Or just trying to make me feel better. I feel like I've disappointed everyone. Other XC stuff hmm.. I made a spirit stick. Yes that's right. A spirit stick. I acquired it the day after Hurricane Katrina hit us at parrot jungle whilst jumping over large pieces of debris in pouring rain on one jolly parrot jungle morning. I found this incredible stick. I take it to meets. But the one I've been using mainly is my PORTABLE (YES I HAVE A PORTABLE ONE TOO) spirit stick which I acquired at FSU. Tallahassee is beautiful and woodsie so, I found a smaller one and made it pretty.
Today is the 12 hour relay. (Everyone each runs a mile while keeping the baton moving). We all were supposed to do around 10 miles and I only did 5. Crappy.
I'm assembling a student-run Hurricane Katrina Benefit Concert. Its been a little frustrating. First, Mr. Hamm and I both came up with the ideas. I tried to get mine done ASAP. His got approved first coz hes a faculty member like that and it took me MUCH longer, they didn't like the dates I picked... so he had his happy concert. Then some other students in the drama department are trying to organize one with chorus and stuff. They, as I soon learned when I was told to talk to Ms Clark had a date of November 18 and mine would be postponed to the second semester. So I kind of stretched out and was all "well ok". Then a few weeks later I get an e-mail that mine had been set to November 18. So I had to go through another bout of obnoxious amount of approvals, and get some chaperones and sponsors.
So finally my happy concert gets put on the calendar. I have like three bands and maybe one solo act signed up. (:()
...Then I find out:
that Mr. Hamm is having his own second benefit concert with his own band. ON ONE OF THE DATES I PROPOSED TO MRS SULKES.
Everyone's dead! Nobody's signing up because it couldn't be approved quickly enough for me to make an announcement in assembly! (assembly was packed anyway) I need help! Its been pissy.
but whatever, I'll throw it together somehow. I need to talk to the Red Cross Club.
Don't get me wrong or anything, I think the more money the better, but its killing it. I should ask Hamm to play in my concert rather than take all the glory like that. But that'll be a pain coz he'll have to tell his band members and stuff. Oh well.
Nothing else really to comment on. I'm sapped from being in the sun all day (yech). I make most of my comments in a physical journal.
toodles.
