this particular week i decided to take it easy. and by that i mean keep off the drink like i had planned. one night during the week and once on the weekend and in return make it to more lectures. the most exciting part of the week was wed. went to galway with the volleyball club. the bus ride was fun and kind of eerie. fun because we did "team" things. played some cards, joked around a bit, shared ipods...the usual bus routines. and eerie because it was the first time i had been on a bus with a group of people besides my vball team. this may or may not have brought a tear to my eye :) i guess it just made me realize the small things about vball and being on a team that i will miss very much. it was kind of humorous though. when we were pulling away from the school i went through my checklist...kneepads, ankle braces, shoes, warm-ups, both jerseys...wait. this was not fmu and not serious vball...didnt know falling into old mental habits was so easy.
but the bus ride was fun...the actual playing part however, was literally excruciating. i think...wait let me rephrase that...i know i could have had more fun passing and setting the ball to myself. here is a picture that describes the match:
thats right...i served, served, and served some more. after giving a girl a facial off a serve, which to my amazement was actually possible, i tried to find the one girl on the team who could at least kick it over. this failed as well. needless to say we won and celebrated on the bus ride back like most irish people would...with some drinks!! they really do find any excuse to drink.
the most exciting part was getting to see galway though. a beautiful little city that i will definitely need to revisit!
