Ah....softball. My favorite sport in the world next to soccer. I love to play the game. In fact, I could play it for hours on end. I've never played highschool softball because I didn't try out last year. And I never played jr. high softball. All though I did try out in seventh grade, but of course I didn't make it because at that time they had one team which combined 7th and 8th grade. And the people that ended up making the team were of course daughters of the coaches and then all of their friends. No offense, but half of them sucked compared to the girls that didn't make it.
So this year I'm trying out for the school's softball team. Lets just say it's so much different from pony league(which I've been playing for the last three years of my life). And to make matters worse they've changed the highschool softball rules around. Gah! Don't even ask me why I'm trying out this year. I really don't want to, but my mom is making me. But it's like I want to play softball(I'm now too old for pony league), but then I don't want to play for the school. Does that make sense? I don't know.
Last night's practice was so painful. I've never done so much running in my life. And I probably wouldn't have if some of the girls would learn how to throw a freaking ball to the person they're throwing with. We had to run sprints like 20 times just for people screwing up. I mean how hard is it to throw a ball straight ahead of you, and then the other person catch it? Maybe it's just me, but it seems like my asthma has gotten worse than what it was.(if that's even possible). I thought I was going to die last night trying to breath.
Question? Is it possible to get a charlie horse in your butt? That sounds kinda weird but, I think I had one in my butt last night. And it hurt really bad. They were timing how fast we could run from base to base, and the pain made it a lot worse. But I'm happy. Because I missed all of last weeks conditioning and I'm still a heck of a lot faster than a lot of girls that were there for the conditioning. So that makes me happy. And I guess that's a plus.
I'm kinda glad we don't have school today. I'm so worn out and my legs hurt. But like they say, big girls don't cry, they get even. I guess it's time to live by that when it comes to anything. Maybe we shouldn't go around crying about things that have happened. I don't know. Is it so right to get even? Like spreading things around that aren't true? Does that make a person feel so much better about themselves? I guess it does, because it makes them happy to see people get hurt by things that are said, or something. But maybe those of us who are getting hurt shouldn't cry, but then again not get even. Or so, we could get even by not doing something back to them and try to show them that we are strong. Maybe that would be considered getting even.
