Lately, my life has been decently hectic. That is a HUGE understatement. Playing a sport for the school is a large time commitment; I choose to be playing two. Tennis and cross country are both sports that I enjoy a lot. However, they make me extremely busy. This year, since I am a senior and the only four-year player, I am team captain. This adds yet another obligation. For some reason, our school loves some sports more than others and tennis happens to fall into the "other" category. The largest indicator is that we don't have uniforms. At this point, it is over half-way through the season, so to order anything would be virtually pointless. But we are teenage girls and these kinds of things are fun so we want tee shirts at least. Therefore, I, as captain, must collect the money and do the ordering- a seemingly simple task that ends up being extremely time consuming and stressful. Yet another thing to add to my list! So the tee shirt ordeal seemed overwhelming, but I thought I could place the order and then work on collecting the money with the other captain. I should have known that it would find a way to complicate itself soon!
I think standing in the rain all day at work is getting the best of me. I'm getting sick and its not fun. When I run, my nose runs with me, just faster. This proves to be quite an annoyance. I am also very tired all of the time. I find myself falling asleep in my more boring classes (not English, don't worry Mr. Miller). I look for a solution to this, but with sports and school work and all of the other things I am involved in, there is just no time for getting to bed early. So until further notice, I will make due with getting to bed at eleven and waking just 6 hours later.. good night.

no uniforms. how unfortunate. i got t-shirts for costa rica participants. i feel your pain. i think i could live the rest of my life dressing only in t-shirts that are somehow related to northern lebanon, gray, white, blue, and lots of that really bright yellow. perhaps you could go through lost and found and outfit the team. just a stupid suggestion.
