First Week of Lacrosse.

 When I am done with all my classes for the day I would go back to my dorm and eat some food, hop in my bed and rest until lacrosse practice starts. Lacrosse practice is usually two to three hours everyday. But before we even knew about practice we had a team bonding day. The team bonding was held at lacrosse so the team and I had space to do stuff. The head coach brought his grill in his truck and was gonna make it for the whole team. He was going to make burgers and hot dogs and he also brought chips and mac and cheese for us for the side dishes. While the head coach was cooking our assistance coach was splitting us into teams for kickball. The assistant coach split us into four different teams and played at least three games. We played kickball and ate food for two hours before we all decided to be done and go back into our dorms. But anyways, when it was time to go to practice my roommate and I would walk to the locker room to change and get our gear. After we changed and got our gear all of us would walk to the field and wait for our coaches to show up. When the coaches showed up we would go right into stretching then right into partner passing. This is how most of the practices would start, we would always take our time doing our warmup because it was so important. When we finished our warmup the coaches would split us into offensive and defensive groups. The defense would do their thing on one side of the field. The offense would go on the other side of the field and do our thing. The offense would do shooting and dodging drills. Then we would all come back into one group and do a drill where it is offense versus defense. After that we would do 6v6 then do a cool down lap around the field then a cool down stretch. When practice was finished we changed and put our gear back in the locker room then went to the trainers. Most of my team would go take an ice bath or get ice for themselves. Then after all that we would go to the dining hall and eat dinner then go back to our dorms and get ready for tomorrow.

First Week of Classes!

 After I was done moving in I had two days before classes started. On the two days I had off I walked the campus some more and made some friends. I also watched some football games and slept most of the time. When Monday came around I was not ready for my 8am class or any of my classes really. I woke up around seven to get ready and eat before the class. The class was intro to Econ which is not fun at all at eight in the morning. After I ate and got ready I walked out of my room and started walking to my class. It took about ten minutes to get there. When I got there I sat down and started regretting waking up and coming here. The class started and it seemed like I was there for more than fifty minutes. I had a 9am right after that class. The 9am was English and at that point I was wide awake and the english class was a lot easier than my 8am. I got through a break from classes till noon. I went to eat at the Dining Hall and went back to my dorm to take a nap. When I woke up I walk...

Winter Break

When I got back from Thanksgiving break we had two weeks of class. The first week of classes we have that time to prepare and go over the stuff we learned over the semester. Also we have that whole week off from lacrosse so we can all focus on our classes and studying for finals. Since we have lacrosse off we have to turn in our equipment to our head coach before we leave for break. Once the first week of classes are over it is finals week.  I have two finals that week for math and computer science. One is on a Tuesday and the other once is on Thursday. Once finals week is over I need to pack up my room and my sister is coming to pick me up on campus. This year we are going to Cincinnati to spend Christmas with my mom's side of the family. But we go to our house first and do not leave for Cincinnati until like December 20th. When we get home my family and I set up the Christmas tree and the rest of the Christmas decorations around the house to of course get ready for Christmas. The...

Thanksgiving Break

Before Thanksgiving break we had a week of classes left plus that Monday and Tuesday Thanksgiving week. Since Thanksgiving break was close every professor and coach was trying to get everything done in such little time. I would have no free time or any time to just rest for a couple hours because I would be busy with studying, turning in homework and going over plays or film for lacrosse. On top of that we have exams in the next two or three weeks so I will be busy studying for those. I go to tutoring every other day for math and go to the writing center so they can look over my final paper before I turn it in. Over Thanksgiving break I will try to get work done and try to make time to study but I doubt I will. For Thanksgiving break I am going to Cincinnati to go see my mom's side of the family. We will be going to my aunt's house for dinner. My grandparents and other aunt will meet us there and stay for the day. My cousins and I are pretty close in age so we all get along and...
