Well... once again school has started and things are finally starting to settle down. Work is going well.. I love it actually because I get to do homework almost the whole time and I get paid for it. But the most exciting part of this school year is RUGBY! No it is not touch and yes I am a little worried about keeping all of my appendages intact but I love it. It is so much fun to learn a new sport and to get back in shape. I haven't been in this good of shape since high school. I will be playing a position called lock... I bet no one knows what that means. :) In the scrums(big packs pushing against each other) I play on the 2nd row, and they also lift me up to catch the ball on "throw-ins" (they're not really called that but for comprehension we will call it that). I am also learning how to ruck and tackle correctly and pass and formations and lots of other fun things. Our first game is this weekend(September 20) at UVU. I get butterflies just thinking about it but I am way stoked. They all say that the first game you just have to get out of the way and then things get less confussing and more fun from there. Dad wants a video of the game but I might have to screen it first...
I am also playing 2 intramurals, soccer, flag football, and basketball(even though the Ingalls family is basketball challenged). I just cannot say no to sports.
