Fun and Busy Friday

Today was a very busy day.  I had a big Philosophy paper due with a presentation.  I read my paper out loud and the class started to discuss it.  I get so confused with philosophy thinking and I just tried to follow along and answer questions as best as I could.  Luckily I went last to present and class eventually ended.  Saved by the bell!  Except without the actual bell.. same thing.  Then in English we had a rough draft of a paper due so I had to turn that in and peer review that.  The two LC's finished up and then I had Calculus class.  We finished all the material for our chapter test which will be next Wednesday so he let us out a little early.

I hopped on the metro right after that and went to meet mom for a lunch.  It was nice to get a break from the cafeteria food.  We went to UNO Chicago grill and I got a huge burger and fries.  Delish! It was nice to see Mom of course and catch up for a while.  I then hopped back on the metro and booked it with just enough time to meet my English prof about my rough draft paper.  I wanted to just make sure I was on the right track and had a few questions to ask.  I thought it wouldn't hurt to go make an extra effort for that class since the first paper I got was a B-.  Hopefully he will see that I am actually trying to improve and succeed in that class.

After crashing in the dorm for a 30 minute nap, I headed over to practice for a pregame preparation.  We did a possession game and then lots of shooting.  I think everyone is ready for tomorrow to get back on track after such a poor performance on Wednesday against Mary Washington.  There is no better time to get ready to play than tomorrow.  We play Messiah at 1 pm and they are ranked #9 in the nation currently.  It's going to be a battle.  I hope we get a solid fan base to come out and watch us.  We then did a quick scouting report in the meeting room after practice to figure out how they're going to play.  I know I'll be ready to play and I think everyone else will be ready too.

After practice I went back out into the city to meet mom for dinner.  I went more on the metro today than I have in the past two weeks it seems like!  But we went to a nice restaurant called The Front Page which was located on Dupont Circle.  We ate outside and it was a nice meal.  I got a blackened chicken fettuccine alfredo to carbo load for up for tomorrow.  That always fills me up and I will probably be going to bed still full.

On the way back from the metro I saw everyone going out into the city from campus.  Everyone is going out and I'm coming back to my dorm on a Friday night.  #studentathleteprobs  It's worth it.  Now I'm tired and will probably be going to bed relatively soon.  Big day tomorrow as well!

Signing off for the night,
