So Much Going On!

As usual, I have been crazy busy, but that's expected by now I think. With classes, work, dance, and track, I barely have time to breathe. I believe it's all worth it though. Classes are going okay. I am buried in homework all the time but I'm starting to feel almost all the way caught up. It's a great feeling.

My workouts for track are on the upswing. I was extremely sick last week (sinus infection?) so I didn't get as much done as I wanted to. It was extremely hard to breathe and/or move for almost five days straight. However, I am almost fully recovered now. Still a little difficult to breathe, and my nose doesn't like to stop running (wish I could say the same for my legs) but other than that I'm feeling pretty healthy. I've been able to increase the weight that I have been lifting as well as the intensity of my conditioning workouts. It is going to be great to be ready to go once the season starts. I won't have to worry about getting back in shape because I'll already be there! I'm also proud of my teammates because for the most part it seems that they are keeping up with their workouts as well. I can't wait to see what we can accomplish this season!

As for dance, I am having so much fun. We are all freaking out a little because we debut TOMORROW! We will be performing for the first time ever as our school's first ever dance team at halftime of the Homecoming football game tomorrow afternoon. We have a pretty busy schedule until then. Practice is in a few hours, and then we will have team dinner and video. Tomorrow morning we have rehearsal at 9am and are busy from then until the end of the game approximately seven hours later. We are so excited. There are a lot of different opinions about us out there, and we want to give a great first impression.

The other exciting part of this weekend is my family coming to see me! My mom, dad, and sister will be arriving tomorrow morning(ish) to watch me perform at the game, and then we get to hang out all night and the next morning. It is going to be awesome.

Well I better get some homework done before practice. Thanks for reading!
