Quitting Track

[zakamus]

Well today I had a very unpleasant experience in track....which led to me deciding to quit the team. Today when I asked the coach if we were gonna bring out the high jump pit he answered me with “I don’t think you are going to make the height “(opening height, 5 foot 2 inches) He went to give me the oh so nice and comforting words of “by next year

:( I'm very sorry about the track team. I can sympathize because I'm not athletic in the least, but I joined the freshman soccer team last year because excercise is good for depression, and I felt like being sportsy. I tried really hard, I made every practice, every game, and most people were nice although I obviously wasn't a help to the team, but there was definately one girl who was a BITCH over it. Your rant wasn't very rantish, I definately admire your composure.
And yes, reading is AMAZING. We will have to do some book trading sometime. I don't read about philosophy much, but I love books on tabooooooo topics ^.^ Have you ever read Middlesex by Jefferey Euphenides? Best book ever. And my second favorite is about prostitution in London, but my friend has it right now.

And a mother who has always been there
finally appears, and drapes her soft arms
around my small, fragile body

I really like that stanza.

Hey, I know that poem :)

It actually helped me write an English essay. I had to write about some Emily Dickinson poem that talked about how powerful reading was. I needed some inspiration, and I just so happened to stumble across your entry.
