So I haven't updated in about 5 months.... it's proabably about time to let everyone know if they care that i'm still alive and well
So been at school for about 2 months now and I love it for the most part..
the school work isn't THAT bad...i mean chem might kill me and i'm not stressing as much as I should be but my outlook on that is very lax right now but yeahhhh..
i'm really happy with the people that surround me for the most part...i love US, i really do feel as if I've gotten to know these few girls so well and that we really have bonded quickly and that makes me happy and makes this whole experience a lot eaiser..
expect all of my friends like them better than me...
i mean some things never change too...it'll always be the same i know it, i know i'm being vauge but that's just how i am...
wootton's homecoming is this friday and for some reason i'm REALLY excited...just to see certain people, i think it'll be good for me...i dont really miss too many people but i def miss certain moments, memories and certain people a LOT!!!
classes are going fine...i sleep through a lot of them...pay attention in some of them and overall good college experience..no crazy partying although u should see some of these girls party :) but they've corrupted me but i love them anyway
i mean that's all i can manage at 2:20 in the morning when i have to get up at 7, which btw reminds me that I HATE MY SCHEDULE!! but i shouldn't complain too much i guess...
we'll see...if you wanna know more just ask me i'd really love to hear from you and catch up...and everyone should come visit me and the rest of the fucking wootton population here sometime...oh yeah not cynical or bitter about that....

So this year has been about making new memories while leaving the old behind. TODAY we GRADUATED from HIGH SCHOOL!!! 13 years in montgomery county schools and we've done it. Maddy A wisked us into the real world and she was awesome. The whole ceremony was amazing, a year of planning, early mornings and late afternooons, scrounging through the binder and G-UNIT love...we've done it!! It was time for OUR event and we made it out alive...it's overrr (well except for the binder)>>> SO emily, kyle and steph as well as the other hard working planners, you know who you are (our superfans) I love you all and we did it..i think i'm just going to keep saying that...
PERFECT DAY!!!
Scotts grad party- kickball, volleyball...my arms hurt
Marys--> too comfortable to move..that's what summers going to be like and i could not be more excited...i love it!
So to this day and so many more to come... and once again WE DID IT!!!

overall just had a blast at the dance..i thank andrew ward for showing me a great time...
post prom was good...tiring but good...money pit sucks!!!

so here comes the long awaited entry... i've been waiting for this moment for 13 years..we are DONE with high school!! we will walk across that stage in a little more than a week and it is surreal. the memories will be life long...
so last night was my last softball banquet ever and by far the best. I wasn't truly able to express yesterday how much these girls mean to me and I doubt I'll be albe to put it into words now. This sport and these girls are so much a part of my life, a part that i'm leaving behind. I remember the 1st tryout and now it's all over. To all the seniors I love you and you are all wonderful players and people. To all the juniors, you guys will do me proud. I have so much faith in you both as players and as teammates. Every moment has been great and I'm going to take these times and memories with me forever. I could go on forever but I'll try to keep it short.
JV did a great job preparing. they just make us look bad with their paragraphs and pennants. I'm going to miss those girls a lot. It's been an honor being apart of this program...we are state champs, we aren't region champs..hell we didn't even have a winning season..but it has been the time of my life. Leah and Erin it's been an honor and a privilage being able to serve as captains with you this year and I can't even begin to express how much you guys mean to me. I can always depend on you and you're always there for me, both in my fits of rage and bouts of depression. I love you guys so much and I can't imagine not having you guys playing right there with me ever again. And I can not express the feelings of honor and gratitude for Lightsey as he stood up there and gave those awards out...I've learned a lot from him and those words meant more to me than making 1st team All-Met, to have someone care that much means so much. Once he said what he did I just couldn't hold it back anymore...chelsy was bawling and i joined right in. Riso's video was amazing and it was the best banquet ever. I love you all. Thank you for 4 great years. pound it, around it, lock it....
OK enough ranting...PROM IS TONIGHT!!!! I'M SOOOOO EXCITED!!!!
you'll get an update about that soon...i think i'll set a personal record for entries this month...

| not wanting to do the little work i have left |
[24 May 2005|06:00pm] |
ok i'm going to be the same as everyone and do this...just cause i'm kinda curious and it's fun..
(If you don't know how to post pictures just send me the link)
1. Think of a word you would use to describe me.
2. Go to Google Image Search
and search for that word.
3. Select the picture you see as most fitting, and
post it as a reply along with the word as the subject.
4. Post this in your journal.
AND we have 2 days of HIGH SCHOOL>>> EVER!! i kinda am really sad but really overwhelmed with how much we still have to do with graduation and whatnot.
PROM in 3 days
LAST SOFTBALL BANQUET in 2 days
that's all really for my countdown...SO EXCITED!!!
that's all for now..more later

4 years, 4 seasons, scrapes, brusies, cuts, tears, laugther, wins, losses, and so many memories that I can't even begin. I realize how much of a part this game plays in my life and in keeping me sane and happy. These girls and this team make up so much of my high school experience. BUT this season has been all about changing and growing and I truly felt like I have. I really have tried so hard not to get mad, to keep myself calm and to look at it from other's perspectives. I do feel as I've changed and grown as a plaeyer and as a teammate.
So we lost to Sherwood today. 6-1, I can't say I have much to complain about or regret, it was a well played game. They hit, we didn't simple as that. Dana played great and we just couldn't hit her. She was good, I can say I'm glad I'm going to be playing with her this summer and not against her. Their balls dropped and we just couldn't get around on the ball fast enough. Solid defense, solid effort, I couldn't have really asked for more. We didn't end our season with the bang that I was hoping for but we made a good effort, we picked it up towards the end and beating Damscus and ruining their streak IS how I wanted to end my senior season. It's been a great season and this is the closest team in four years and I do not want to leave these girls. I've gotten to know everyone and I love all of these girls in their own way.
I just wanted to say thanks to all of those who've made this season as great as it has been. Through the ups and downs, unbearable moments and HILAROUS times it's been great. And the time I've spent with you guys, on that field, stuffing our faces, telling stories...and so much more, I WILL NEVER FORGET. WOOTSOFT!!
and don't worry, you'll get another sappy entry after banquet. There will be waterfalls...

so today was the perfect day for the best game ever!!
it was senior day and I can not even put into words the sadness and gratitude that I felt when I saw that field and those juniors standing by the bases. I saw the work and care that they put into it and it really meant a lot. We took our last trip around the bases and got our roses and it couldn't have gone better. I really love those girls, I love this team, and I love this sport. I can't believe we just played our last regular season home game. We killed them and played so well. I think we're back and this streak is just gonna get hotter.
11-1 beat Rockville today. Went 4-4 (i think)with technically probably a single but GRAND SLAM baby..it was awesome. solid defense solid hitting solid game
6-4 BEAT DAMASCUS!! best game EVER!! we played awesome, outfield making those amazing catches, hit well..ball to the SIDEWALK!(def this bat- i LOVE THIS BAT) and then kicking her in the crotch...just amazing, it was a great feeling beating those girls...we BEAT them, they didn't lose..that's the best part.
ohhh man...we've been through so many ups and downs and i want it so badly...
PS. thanks to ash and lindsay for making a guest apperance..and kody and her shoes..ohhh mannn

Well in order to continue to put off any work i think it's time for an update
our last spring break came and went. it was filled with mulch, mulch, and hmm more mulch with a little graduation and t-shirt making thrown in...
i mean it wasn't that bad, despite calling thrope and tracking down thompson in italy.... wooton?!? how hard is it really?? evelopes stuffing and directions up the wazoo!!! but there's no one else i would've wanted to spend all that time working with. nyc is going to be amazing!
i can't believe we have like 37 days of school left... can't believe it. i'm sad but not at the same time. nervous but so excited at the same time. I just really really really want to decide where i'm going to be spending the next four years of my life, i need help.
we play our 2nd game of the season tomorrow--> damn rain, against PB tho and i'm really excited to see some of those girls again!!
so mulch sale this weekend, then it'll be over!! grad meetings next week and the week after that.. then SENIOR PICNIC!!! oh man... AP EXAMS...then before ya know it it'll be PROMMMMM!!! and then the long waited event of GRADUATION...i CAN NOT WAIT TILL IT'S ALL OVER!!! i really need to start prom dress shopping...and date finding, yeah that would be good..hmmm well that's enough ranting for now. peace out!

ok this is softball season so be ready for the countless streams of repetivness and meangingless posts...
game today= not so good..i dont wanna talk about it..
but i do want to share this lovely message from our departed first baseman...
seriously, i do things at college other than read michelle ho's lj i swear. ashley told me i had to read the rules. the first entry was better, because most of them revolved around me and ash... who are the central components to the infield, as well as life. i have some more rules:
-if a baby attends a practice, game, or otherwise, someone may be appointed to play with it all the time, even if they are on deck
-team t-shirts must contain a slogan that sounds really good in the captain's heads, but really doesn't make sense to anyone else
-all meals at fast food restraunts must be paid for in change, regulated by the bank of leah
-anyone whining "toneee" will be subsequentley punched in the face
p.s. i love mr ross, and he he introduced me to his wife as "your future daughter in law" ahaha rem will be mine
PPS from ME>>> i really should be writing my essay and it SHOULD NOT take four hours to get a salad!! or any food for that matter....oh babies up the wazoo.... "morgan, can u say indentured servitude??" whoever can get her to say that wins... at life

so college decision time is in the air and it's time to start making decisons...
i got into university of delaware today- they are giving me 1,500 a year
umbc is giving me 5,000 a year
hofstra is giving me about 20,000 a year
nc state
and umcp..those are the choices thus far and i am completely undecided and torn so any input would be lovely but if not then i just wanted to share...
we won our first scrimmage on sat against magruder and i am sooo proud of the start we've gotten off too, in four years i have never seen this team start off like it has this year, i really do have a good feeling about this season...
i feel like everyone is going to play a crucial role in this season. some people really stepped up and i have a feeling that people will only continue to get better and we can take on any team..we're solid and not overpowering but we hold our own and can def beat any mcps team out there...
rm today- tied game and we once again played really well and i'm so proud of everyone. see focusing on the positive- new attitude!! kritsa had an awesome hit and got robbed...still mad about my hit too..leah had an awesome hit. i LOVE that sound, the pitchers did awesome and i have a feeling that it's all going get better!!!
love the free food....yummm
ok that's enough for now...

| unnessary update |
[11 Mar 2005|01:43pm] |
so i really only update about twice every month and this update is really only for emily's amusement and enteratainment...
so its friday!! that's always good
softball is going quite well..expect it was freezing and extremely wet and muddy yesterday..but playing in the mud is always a blast, everyone's backs were all spotted, it was funny but i might be getting sick. that can't be good
then off to chipolte, now that was a good burrito and hilarious conversation topics, oh man the stories i heard
and a continuation of the manifesto, just cause it's awesome
Working on some new ones b/c list one was such a hit...
11. Make fun of ANY girl whether on our team (the "gopher") or theirs who makes noises while they throw.
12. You SHOULD feel shame when the rest of the team does push-ups for you...seriously we're on the dirt. Just catch the ball.
13. (Regardging number 12) It's okay to cheat and not do ALL of the push-ups (one, two...nine, ten!) ... It's not like Lightsey can watch everybody.
14. DO NOT pull your pants down to your cleats. It's just not cool.
15. You cannot wash your pants after a win. I know it's dirty... but it's good luck.
16. At all times when we are at bat, somebody must be screaming incomprehensible banter.
17. Batting practice in Rockville is a joke... Don't ever take it seriously. Just take your one turn then sit there the rest of the two hours and play with the equipment that you're not supposed to play with.
18. You WILL go by your last name... even if it really sucks and sounds vulgar. It's okay... it throws the other team off when you refer to your teammate as "HO"
19. The red jackets are nasty. Only wear them as a last resort. Seriously...they're like 10 years old and smell.
20. If Mr. Ross gives you a hard time don't take it personally... just make fun of his limp. (Don't tell him I told you that though!)
Maybe more to follow?
yea so about two weeks to spring break and u kno how excited i am for that...a spring break of mulch and graduation...wahoo but we'll make a party out of it..wont we?!?
so i've become very lazy and un productive but it is second semester senior year and i really just want to know where i'm going to school...and justhave it decided...
after spring break then senior picnic then ap exams prom then nyc and then GRADUATION!!! it really is bitter sweet, last of everything but then comes a hell of a lot of firsts and i can not wait...hmm i should start prom dress shopping, date too?? hmm...another mall trip?? well that's enough rambling for now...off to practice in the cold cold mud...can't wait!!

today= good first practice...see more optimistic already!!
and these are the new rules for the softball season so everyone pay attention, they were too funny and correct not to share
these come from our greatly missed and departed former part of the ethinc venn diagram...
so read on...ash might be watching from angry mans yard, ya never kno
P.S. I decided that certain traditions MUST carry on:
1. Any time deer run across the field everybody MUST stop what they're doing and point at the deer and shout "DEER! DEER! DEER!" as if they have never seen deer before.
2. Whenever a plastic bag flies across the field everybody must stop and remark about how it is the most beautiful thing in the whole world.
3. Whenever anybody plays pepper, absurd rules must ALWAYS be made up to accompany it...and somebody ALWAYS has to be hit hard in the shin...and get really pissed.
4. When Lightsey teaches the same old signs, the same pneumonic devices must be brought up again... (swipe belly) = "steal food for your children" (hitting thigh) = sacrifice your leg for the war (swipe arm) = take the hair off your arms
5. At any given point during practice, somebody MUST yell WHORE and it should not have to do with ANYTHING that is going on.
6. Whoever plays third must tap gloves with Ho ALL the time.
7. A song must be stuck in everybody's heads for the entire practice. And nobody can know more than the chorus to the song.
8. Whoever gets #4 must be ridiculously funny, random, and good.
9. When you have to scoop water out of the field after the rain, everybody must get unnesecarily extra muddy and nasty.
10. Before Lightsey gets there, people MUST argue at the post-game huddle on the hill...regardless of whether we won or lost.
stay tuned for more rules to follow.
Thanks.

it sucks that we can't play outside...all i really want is to be able to play our scrimages next week
BEAUTIFUL SOOOOUUUUUUL!!!!
i have a feeling its going to be a good season and i have high expectations for us all!! but i do miss the other half of the great wall and the "whore" but we're gonna bounce back! see i'm trying a new thing where i'm not so pessimistic all the time...
kinda bummed that storm is over for now cause i dont get to see all those crazy kids but this summer's gonna be awesome
everything's going pretty well for once...for once but don't expect that to last long, once the games start i'm sure i'll be back to my old bitter self so beware
haha..."this is my tea party!" that class keeps me sane
i love it all
so we went "shopping" on sat and that was a blast..snow football the day before...scary zombie babies...popping out and eating people...great 5 day weekend i love seeing people, yay for rocket ships, upgrade to an apartment!! love my friends
