Classes

Whew! It's been a week since I last wrote and a LOT has happened already!

Wel, I've got my classes set. I'm only going to get one class to transfer to IU as something I need.. so I figured since i have 8 more credits to fill, I'll have some fun here. I'm taking General Theory of Language as the transfer class.... ANNNND i'm taking a Musical Creativity Workshop (right now we have to compose short little ditties- VERY simple and a bit boring), I'm also taking Women's sports and Modern Dance!! I was hoping the last two would give me a bit of a workout. So, on Wednesday I had my first Women's sports class. It went well.. we did a lot of running then a physical fitness test with doing these step up and down things for 5 minutes.. my legs were pretty tired after the class, but it wasn't bad. Afterwards, the teacher asked me what sports I've played in the past.. I told her soccer, basketball, volleyball and high jump. Sooo she led me to some coaches and said, there you go, want to be on the team? haha, i thought this was just a gym class! I didn't realize i'd be playing for some peruvian university's sports team!

So thursday I went into the school (i have no classes thursdays or fridays) and met and trained with the track coach. It was so much fun to do high jump again!! Although I was really really bad in comparison with what I used to do.. but it's been 5 years and i weigh more, so what should I expect? So we talked about how I should get back in shape, etc.. so I did a LOT of running, jump-roping and random other exercises, then he let me go and I went to play volleyball. I warmed up with them (UGHH more running!) and then in the middle of playing, the coach pulled me out and asked if i wanted to go try out soccer, because their practice was about to start. Sooo off i went for more running and warm-ups! Then I scrimmaged for about 30 minutes and started to head home... but i saw the volleyball people were still playing, so i joined them again :)

OOOOOoooooOOOOWwww. Walking home was tough.. moving after I got home was tough, waking up Friday morning OUCH. I stretch and i stretch.. but 5 minutes later, I feel like i have stones in my calves! I head off to the university again for more practice with the high jump coach, but he tells me that he saw me playing soccer and volleyball, so i should take the day off and rest this weekend or else i could pull a muscle or so. So back home I went.

It's Friday night. I just got back from this really cool water park.. it's huge and full of really creative water fountains and water shows. My legs have still been full of rocks all day, my calf muscles grinding within themselves whenever I move, but it's a good feeling, too.. knowing I'm back in sports after so long!!

I've been having a cough and just annoying cold.. but after the water park we went to "The street of the pizzas" where we sat and had a bit to eat and drink.. and there I lost my voice. :/ So here I am, sipping tea and hoping my body gets back to normal by Monday!
