I'm Back! With Good News!

From the News Blackout and my apparent hiatus from blogging. But good news from the Island:

IT'S RAINING.

I've never been so happy to see and feel rain in my entire life. Me and the roomie ventured to the outside. To her it feels like home. To me it feels like anti-heat, which is pretty much as close to home as this place may get. Rumor has it, the Island has a spazz when there is an inch of snow. Let's see what my snow dance brings, as my rain dance was fruitful. 

This week has taught me a lot. In the sports realm it has been like this:

Rugby: It's awesome, all around. The girls are nice and tough, the game is fun, the coaches are tough, but helpful and nice. Also, it may break me. Until I get in proper shape, my legs will move like Frankenstein's monster. And my body will be sore in every possible way.

Equestrian Team: Maybe worth it, maybe not. The girls do not seem as helpful as the rugby girls and I have to do everything myself even though I literally have no clue about anything and know no one. But I'm feeling my love for riding creating an ache in me. So I may have to bite the bullet in order to pursue an activity I love.

Other lessons that have been featured this week are:

• Never use the second door of the transit bus to enter. Your groceries will get stuck and you will look like a monkey gripping a banana in a jar. Whilst others will simply stare at you, not helping in anyway, such as agreeing to hold your stuff or agreeing to tell the bus driver about your situation even when you ask. Others outside the buss will offer helpful, sane advice, which you will ignore due to your anger at the people inside. All together: It's a bad idea.
• Always read the fine print. Otherwise you and your roommate will sit there waiting for a bus that will not show on Sundays and missing the two others that would take you to the mall.
• Don't venture to the creepy basement with out a buddy. The laundry room lights will not work and you will have to drag all your stuff back up to the third floor. 
• Do stick it to the man by sneaking trailmix into the football game, but don't put it back in your purse open. It will be an awkward thing for you to dump out of your purse in public when you realize days later that it spilled everywhere. 

There was more, I'm sure, but those are the highlights. Have a good day, hopefully you can be less awkward and klutzy than me!
