post-gameday

yes, today is the day after the much anticipated first soccer game. and to be perfectly honest, it was something of a disappointment. it wasn't as big a deal as my mind made it seem. i didn't start, which was probably for several reasons.
1. i'm sick
2. i've never played before
3. i'm no good

all of these, especially 3, could very well be the causes. but i'll let you be the one(s) to decide. anyhow, the team we played, spartanburg day, were awful. there were seriously 2 people on the team that were skillfull, and they scored two lucky goals off of corner kicks in the first ten minutes of the game. they didn't deserve it. we ended up being behind like 5 to 3 in the last 11 minutes of the game, and caught up to tie the game at 5-5. we should have won. they were a weak team, and got lucky. that's all i have to say about that. there was one player in particular, however, who i believe intentionally aggravated me. first, for some reason, my beating him whilst sprinting for the ball upset him, so he decided to grab me by the collar and spin me around, while saying "what the f--- are you doing?!". violations galore. i proceeded to stare him down for the rest of the game. he was a cheap player. if you want to play soccer, play soccer, but don't play dirty, and don't be a sore sport if someone is faster than you.

we have another game on friday, which is an away game in newberry. hopefully we'll have better luck.

i still am maintaining this awful sickness, which consists of sore throat, sniffles, coughles, and feeling fatigued and feverish. it isn't pleasant, and school certainly doesn't improve circumstances.

i'd really like to have my restricted license riiiiiiiiight now.
