More XC

Emory and Henry

I'm a little confused. I got home from pit today and my mom told me to take a look at a letter from Emory and Henry on the table. The letter informed me that I had been accepted into their college and they were looking forward to seeing me on one of their prospective student days. I didn't even complete my app. I just checked it. It's still incomplete. Yet they sent me a letter saying it was complete. I guess it feels pretty good that I got into a school I didn't even finish applying to.

Pit was ok today. My fingers are legit bleeding though. It's a good thing I have a set of new strings cause mine are dead.

I really need to get off blogger and do my homework, but if senioritis hadn't kicked in a little while ago it sure has now. But I'm going to write my paper anyway.

Slash



Got a little slash going on.

Good Rehearsal.

Pit went well today for me. Like really well. I think having a drummer really helps. Or maybe all my practicing is just paying off finally. My hands are pretty sore though. Not even my finger tips, just my hands in general.

I don't know why, but I've never done well in early morning practices. My muscles and lungs just aren't awake yet. I died pretty hard this morning. When we started running, I could barely see anything because it was snowing so hard but when I came back the sun was in my eyes and all the snow plastered on me melted.

Anyway. I'm going to go read in bed now.

So I'm At School

And I'm reading google news. I managed to get the most of my homework done, so it's nice to be able to relax for a little. I'm really not too excited about going to practice in a few hours, but then again, I rarely do. I thought regionals was this weekend and it's not. So I'm going to have to drive down...up? to Liberty behind the bus and then drive back right after the mile. Fun Fun Fun...

I can't believe it's Friday. This week felt reeeeeally long. I guess that's because it was our first one in a few without a snow day.

I recorded a video of Canon Rock last night finally. Well, 2 videos and I spliced them together. It's not my best version. I think the best one I've ever done is the recording I have but whatever. I think it's good enough. My strings were really dirty though so my hands got stuck a few times. www.youtube.com/fichtezxc

I've gotten really bad headaches for the past...3 days? I always get them right around now and they last through the end of the day and through most of track and until I get home and in the shower. I occasionally get stomach aches with them too. Off and on stomach aches. I'm kind of worried...but whatever. I think it's just because I'm not used to being so tied.

I wonder if I have pit tonight...I forgot to ask Snow during theory. I need to go ask after school. I need to practice, but I kind of hope we don't have it. I'm really tired.

So. I'm gonna leave.

Picture V


Yeah, I miss XC.

Now I'm

Exhausted. It took two days to do it. At least we have tomorrow off from pit. My leg is starting to really hurt me. I stood up to go get my meager snack during pit and I could barely walk until the muscle stretched out a bit. I really need to fix it somehow. It's only slowing me down a little bit at least. The only thing slowing me down is exhaustion.

Speaking of exhaustion. I'm going to go read it bed, or more likely hang out with Joy.

Good night.

Picture IV?




I wasn't lying. Mazda Miata

First Really Long Day

It was stressful, but ok overall I guess. Track practice was pretty cool. 10 400's at like...around mile pace. I must not have stretched well enough or something because when I started lugging amps around for pit practice a muscle in my leg started really hurting. It feels like a pulled muscle and it's really swollen. I'm icing it though so it should be fine.

Pit was weird. I got rearranged so I had to learn to listen to different people. I'm used to listening to David for the off beats, but he's on the other side of the pit now. I pretty much didn't talk. I looked pretty miserable, but I was fine. Just tired. I am really tired.

Not much else to say.
