Today was a pretty fun day. I had 3 classes today which weren't even that bad, although I am still sort of having troubles with writing but it's starting to come along. Last night I wrote a summary on an academic essay, which is fairly difficult because of all these new terms I'm learning and trying to find them. I guess we'll see what happens with that on monday. After classes were done I had practice, but on Fridays we go fairly light because of the games on the weekends but we got the work in. Doing set pieces, corners, throw-in's, etc., but it helps us out for games with timing and all that so it's good. After practice we went to our captain's house for a team dinner and had some pasta and bread and then after that it was the teams annual NHL hockey draft. It got pretty intense; 10 picks overall, 6 forwards, 3 defenders, and 1 goalie. It's pretty funny because everyone wants the good players and then when they're picked everyone else is like "ah crap, that's who I wanted to get!". And then everyone has to think of a new player for their pick and then someone gets him and then you keep having to switch your guys around and it's pretty funny.
Tomorrow is game day! Home to Trinity Western, and apparently they bring lots of fans with them and they heckle quite a bit but we are trying to get tons of people out to tomorrow and Sunday's game to heckle the other team to give us a bit of an advantage. I am so pumped for this game though. My cold is gone and I am fit and ready to go. I'm going to be winning balls in the air, sticking tackles, bumbing people off the ball and making all my passes count. Most of all though is I am going to be talking to everyone on the field and making people go where they need to. Game prep starts tonight, well technically it starts after the last game ends, but tonight is when I really start getting focused and then I'n the morning I get myself pumped up to try and be the hardest working guy on that field.
ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING
