I totally almost forgot to post. If it wasn't for the Skype call I am about to make while I write I would not have posted. Despite the fact that two out of three of my classes for today were cancelled, it has been very busy.
This weekend we had a floor hockey tournament between the houses. Surprisingly our team came in fourth place, which is awesome considering we are in a quiet house and those houses usually don't even participate. I quite like floor hockey, much better than actual hockey since I am terrible at skating. I like to play defence, since I am not afraid to be a bit rough. I ended up with a few nasty bruises, but it was all fun.
We also went to the pool on Monday and also this evening. It's a really nice and big pool. I love to swim, and have decided to try to go at least twice a week. Great way to get exercise, spend time when I'm not in class, and have fun, since I love to swim.
Katie, I think you need to get a hobby. All of that school work can't be good for you. I suggest learning a new skill that is independent from school.
Adam, I haven't watched Vlogbrothers in quite a few months, so I haven't gotten to see the 1000th video. I joined the English Students' Associated and also a club-type thing for writers. I am also half of the media representatives for our house. I will write and another student will photograph. Along with the swimming and actually going to school, I think I will be set for this year.
Kate, I think we are really glorifying the university experience. Personally I don't get too much homework, being a first year English major, but I know some people who have tons of work. Keeping up with it isn't too difficult, but I can tell you that you won't have a problem with having too much time on your hands. There is always prep work and reading and studying to do.
Campion, I am not really a fan of the Halo games. I've not ever played them, but I have seen them be played and they just look terribly difficult. Also, I am not good at shooting and strategy games. And I LOVED Spyro: Year of the Dragon. I grew up with a Playstation and that was one of my favourite things to play. That and Crash Bandicoot. But I agree, Spyro was a good one. I liked the skateboarding mini-games. I was amazing at those. And of course, Pokemon always remains a number one. That about sums up my video gaming experience though.
Going home this weekend. Not that I want to, but I have an optometrist appointment. I really like being here, especially on weekends, since there is always something fun to be done. I am going to a hockey game tomorrow night before I leave. It is the first official game of the season. I am quite excited, even though I don't particularly like hockey. Anywho, I hope you all have good weeks. Don't cry too hard over the Ponds, especially since we get Oswin. Don't forget to be awesome!
