Love of my Life/Peaches & Cream

So last night was the Common and 112 concert on campus...I was REALLY good I like both artist and they did a hell of a job. Plus I had really good seats, 5th row. My friends got backstage I really didn't wanna go cuz I wasn't looking 100% and I'm a little sick. I was more like 90% so I just watched the purses. They even got invited to the after party but with a 4:30 wake up call I knew I wasn't going. Tommorow is our first MAJOR regatta for the season, if you near Oak Ridge Tennessee holla at your gurl we would love the support. Until next post....laters

So Saturday night was the night of the Alpha Phi Alpha Ball. I had so much fun, me and my girls looked good too. Plus the event took my mind off of the fact that we lost our regatta that same day. It was event that I will never forget especially because I fell asleep in IHOP and cut my forehead. It was QUITE a wake up call. Any who..gotta study for an exam that I have tonight...wish me luck....hey bro love the business card smooches....later

So cold.....

Today just had to be the worst day of practice....at least in a long time. It was 26 degrees outside in addition to the wind chill, and the freezing cold water. I was literally and ice cube coming off of the water, plus our boat had so much water in it that when we flipped it over to walk it up the dock all the water froze on the dock making it slippery and hard for the rest of the team to get off the water. I felt bad for them but I was so cold and shivering I could hardly move nonetheless Cox the boat into the racks. The only real reason we practiced today was because we have a regatta this weekend and we haven't been on the water for one reason or another since Saturday....FYI we beat NC State last weekend and plan to TOTALLY eliminate W&M this weekend...until next post...laters

Spring Break:VT Crew Style

Image
OK so it has been a long time...in fact it's a whole new month....I am fresh off of spring break, one week of 3x day crew practice, shady hotels, team bonding, and even a tan in 70^o weather. I had a great time, though a few bad thing happened like me getting sick, a rift between the novice girls, and us starting out in the most shady and ghetto hotel in Augusta. Highlights include me impersonating our coach @ the talent show, my very first experience as a rower(see picture..that's me in the red shirt), light saber wars, and tagging the bridge. I really cherish the memories that I have now because if I had went home I would not have really done anything special, and even though I didn't see my family I saw them the two weekends leading to spring break and I am going home again this weekend.....so it al balances out...DOWNSIDE of coming back to tech after spring break, a week of test two down and 4 to go..wish me luck...until next post..laters
