Boy oh boy, it's 1:15 AM. I'm still doing homework. Ben Chatham, welcome to you junior year! Hey, anyone who might be listening, what's up? So, this year, my goal is to update this thing a couple of times a week, ideally 3 or 4. Just to keep the 1 or 2 people reading this updated on daily troubles, joys, etc.
So, this has been a long week and a great weekend so far. I had a ton of work in the 2nd week of my junior year, and I did not handle it very well. I think a lot of it had to do with my lack of discipline and focus. I seem to be struggling again with getting myself together. Better make it a personal goal for next week. Ultimate frisbee has gotten back up agian, we practiced Friday and Saturday, and it was amazing. It felt great to be back out there with the guys, and a lot of people have really improved. I have a lot of confidence in our team this year, personally,and I can't wait for spring. We've learned new plays, we've gotten much better at route-running, and most of us are adept throwers. We should be a strong team this year, and I can't wait.
So, I quit XC. Yup yup, I quit the sport that I showed the most promise in. But, it wasn't any fun for me. Going back to Ultimate again, we bond together so well and are able to have a ton of laughs, but we're all very serious about succeeding. XC lacks the fun aspect. It was just practice, practice, practice. It felt like work. Frisbee is work, but it's also fun. We work, but we still enjoy ourselves doing it. XC lacked that.
Anyway, onto my last subject. Civilization V. Oh my god, this is a GREAT game. I've only played 4 hours of it, and I'm madly in love. I love city-states, I love the graphics, the new empires, etc. Best game I ever played. If any of you like strategy games, buy this.
It's late. I need to sleep. Peace.
