I wish I could play soccer again! =/

Soccer is a sport that is big in my family. I remember as a child going to my fathers' games. I remember sitting with my uncles on the couch Sunday mornings, watching random games or the world cup. Eventually, later on, my parents put me in soccer camp. That was the best! I loved it so much! Watching it on TV was great, don't get me wrong, but NOTHING like being on the field! I started off as midfielder, but quickly realized my position was definitely defense. I played for about six years straight. Boy, those years were some of the best in my life so far! We practiced two to three times a week and our games were on Sunday. It was an all woman's league. Not for nothing, but our team won the championship every year. We had a great coach! He was very disciplined and took his job seriously! That man trained us to eat, breathe, and sleep soccer. I miss it very much. I miss being in that kind of shape! I have been considering playing again lately. I guess the older you get, the more responsibilities you have, the harder it is to find the time for extra curricular activities, but, where there is a will, there is a way. I'm not married, I don't have children, no car note, no mortgage. If I organized myself properly, I'm sure I could manage. I'm going to do it! Yes sir! I will find a weekend league or a late night one! I will keep you all posted!

Falling behind in summer classes is THE WORST!

Today I am soooo frustrated. I am trying to catch up on my work but it is obviously difficult without my books. I went to Florida this weekend with my family and I took all my books so I can do some homework and get up to date, and well, my darling sister unknowingly removed the bag from the car and it ended up staying. My uncle put my books in a box and paid $70.00 to have them overnighted to me, only for UPS to fail at delivering them today. How much bad luck can I handle in one weekend? Ugghhh... No. I need to be an adult and accept responsibility for my actions. I should have been more careful. My books are my responsibility and I should have checked the car to make sure they were there. School is a big priority and by slacking off I am only hurting myself. Hopefully I will get them tomorrow and I can do some work before the beginning of class. I will pray hard tonight. Lord knows I want to succeed in my classes. If I shape up and do my part, I know He will help me accomplish my goals.

Shoes make me happy! :]

I am a female and I love shoes. I have spent hundreds, maybe even thousands of dollars on pairs and pairs of shoes, many I have never and probably will never even wear. I have shoes of every color & style you can imagine. Most of them are the same size, with a few ranging a half or, on rare occasions, a full size difference. I have boxes of shoes in my attic, in my closet, & even under my bed. I have random pairs all over the place from my living room closet, to my garage, to the trunk of my car. As you can probably (obviously) tell, I REALLY love shoes. They make me very happy. They are so pretty. Mix and matching my outfits is great, but finding the PERFECT shoes to complete the attire, is priceless. I might not even care how coordinated my clothes and/or accessories are as long as I am content about the shoes on my feet. You might consider this strange. You might even classify me as having an obesessive complusive disorder or behavior toward shoes, but, if you ask around, I'm sure it will shock you just how many people love shoes just as much as me.  :)
