Fastpitch!

Sooo.... The season opener was yesterday! 2 games against Cayuga Gamblers in the burning sun, and now I have burning arms! Sunscreen will be my friend this summer... if I don't forget to put some on!

Well, to cut the story short (you can see the full game summary on my other blog self-titled)... we lost both games, the first one was 3 - 1 and the second was 8 - 4.

A few games here and there, along with school, family, friends, and work will keep me busy. No doubt about it. Oh! Forgot to mention that the Grand Championships this year are being hosted by St. Catharines (who I play for) so we are entered automatically. Usually, you need to be in the top 2 or 3 of a qualifying tournament to be able to attend, but the host team attends with no questions asked! I'm liking that! Although we'll still go to a qualifier tournament, it'll be more to see how the other teams are shaping up near the end of the season than to actually win (it'd be nice though... fingers crossed!).

Hmm, what's up other than fastpitch? School is pretty busy right now. I heard someone say today that there are only 5 more full weeks left of school, not including exams. I'm so happy though! Oh, and in fitness class, we're working on putting together an Ultimate Fitness Challenge (UFC for short, not to be confused with the wrestling/mixed martial arts program) for both the girl's class and the guy's class to compete in. Along with that, there comes fitness testing every so often to see how we're progressing through the semester. We had to bench press 60% of our body weight today! It was tough, and I had to go slightly less. I usually work my legs in the weight room.... I should change that eh?

Well! That's all, folks! I must be heading to bed now. Slo-pitch tournament for school is tomorrow, wish me luck!

Toodles! :)
