Blog 31

This has probably been the longest day I've had in a long time. I woke up at 7 in the morning to go to Watterson High School in order to take the ACT. Last time I took it I got a 31, and I think that I have probably improved on that score by one or two points, but I could be wrong. It was terrible to take a five hour test though, and I was so tired afterwards that I didn't want to do anything. I took a nap from 2 to 4:15, when I had to leave for my soccer game. We left from Whetstone at 4:45 to catch the bus to Dublin Jerome High School. The drive took a really long time because the bus driver drove in a huge circle twice before realizing where we were. We got to Jerome at 5:40, and in the state playoffs you are only allowed one hour of warmup, so we couldn't actually step onto the field until 6:00, which was kind of a boring wait. Once the game started, it was pretty fun. The first half ended up tied 0-0, which was a lot better than we were expected to do. We were playing well though and so were they. They scored two goals in the first ten minutes of the second half, and a third with fifteen minutes left. None of the goals were really off our mistakes, we just didn't have situations turn out how we wanted. We scored a goal with eight minutes left, but we couldn't keep going. So at the end we lost 3-1, but we had a blast on the field. The season is officially over, but we went out to Roosters one last time as a team to celebrate our season.
