Re: The Rant Thread
I love our new track program. Its so much more organized this year, and we have some promising people. It really helps that our school is a lot nicer after the remodel, with the new gyms and all.

Bugs!
EWWW I hate them. They're one of my biggest fears. Right now we have a flying ant raid in our bathroom. They must be coming from the sink because they're all over in there. Even my mom was freaking out. It happens every spring too. Ughh!

Re: The Rant Thread
So there are only a total of 9 Freshmen girls doing a spring sport. 1 track girl, and 8 softball girls.
My track team is made up of 1 fresh, 1 senior, and then 10 soph & 10 juniors.
Recruiting freshmen who don't want to run, is SOOOO freakin hard! I felt like an idiot today trying to talk to some of the freshies about joining track. Some of them could do GREAT things for our team....they just have decided not to do anything this spring. grr. If I controlled the world, everyone would have to pick either softball or track. NOBODY would not do a spring sport.

Re: The Rant Thread
I went to the gym the other day. There was a guy sitting on the leg press pumping out reps while talking on the phone. Also there were a shit load of guys looking at themselves in the mirror before/after/during sets. That pisses me off.
At least the squat rack was free. They just like to do bicep curls and bench press by the mirror.

They'd probably consider it if you didn't call them freshies.

I had this all my middle school years, I think it was due to anxiety. Are you nervous about anything??

Re: The Rant Thread
Hahaha okay. Well basically the guy I was sorta dating, I didn't like him all that much (I know that sounds horrible, but it's complicated) so I decided I should probably end it with him. I did, and then two days later he was already going out with someone else. Stupid boys.Running With Scissors wrote:baby got track wrote:I have a BIG boy rant coming soon, stay tuned.

It was going to be a bigger rant, but then I decided to end it and that changed things.

Re: The Rant Thread
So, as I've posted here, I had a funeral to go to. Now, I had a paper due on Monday (yesterday), but I got an extension. The only problem was that it was only a 2 day extension, while I lost a full 5 days because of the trip, so I have just one day to get it done.
