Now. Now now now now now. I gave out late Valentine's today. XD To the ski team. We were out on the football field, and coach was inside the school at a faculty meeting, so we were out there just goofing around and playing and tramping down the GIANT CRUST that was on top of the snow. And so we packed down a bit of a track, and then seperated off to play. Gunner started building a wall with the snow crust; it was a HUGE THICK CRUST, like two inches thick. And I got an IDEAAAA *dun dun dun*... I took my finger, and pushed it through the crust, and drew a heart. And then I slid my hands under it, and could pick up the nice heart-shape. If I wasn't careful they broke, but I managed to make several and ran around squealing and giving them to people. It was so fun!

In other news, I am SICK and coughing up GOO and my FOOT is SPRAINED godDAMMIT. Hee hee hee. In OTHER other news, it's confirmed that I will be going to state for skiing! I'm so glad.

See, regions went really, really well. I skied JV; and I actually placed in the top ten!

Well, there's so much to tell. We left Friday morning, but when we got to Su Valley there were HOURS before the first race. So, the whole team dug out their sleeping bags and we all kind of piled on to sleep and play lame card games. Hehe. The classic race was later; 6K for the girls, both varsity and JV. I was around the middle of the pack (skied JV again, of course); maybe a few places below. Not BAD but not that great either.

After the race, we got our rooms. And there was... HAHAHA... I giant, life-sized cut out of Orlando Bloom as LEGOLAS in our room. One of my friends on the team is/was a big Legolas fan, so when she came in there she squealed... out of FEAR! Because it SERIOUSLY looked like a real person! XD After we went to shower, well... my friend Jae had stuck the cutout riiight in front of the door. And this friend, she walked in ahead of me, talking to me all the while. So she wasn't really watching. And when she turned around and Legolas was right in her face... she jumped and squeeeeeaked. XD It was so hilarious. Later that night, we set him in the door, too... And it was a scream, because people walked by, they'd kinda rubberneck. Their heads would sort of flop over in that direction, because they all thought it was real too. Jae and my other friend and I just sat there and laughed.

I didn't sleep well at all the first night, but the race on Saturday was postponed because it was too cold; it was 30 below! So we had several hours to wait. I got back in my sleeping bag and slept for another couple of hours. After that I felt much better.

Even though it warmed up, the decision was made to cut the JV races in half, so we'd only do one lap of the course instead of two- 3k instead of 6, for us girls. And THAT'S WHERE I PLACED! Ninth in the top ten, and even if that isn't great, I'm still really proud!

HowEVER. This girl, Josie... UGH. Ugh. Most people who know me at all have heard me rant about her, more than once. She can be okay sometimes, but she talks about herself ALLLLLL THE TIME (I excuse my own exhibition of this behavior on here because it's my journal, and people talk about their things on their journals), and she's an airhead. And. She SWITCHED OUR BIBS. So I was marked as Josie, and she was marked as me. SO. When I got called up to the top ten, HER name was called. We figured it out though; pretty easily. And I ran up there. Like two minutes after my name was called. I'm sure I looked like a moron. Because I skittered back and forth like three times before finally going up there.

Hmmhmm. That's pretty much all that's important about regions. And about today. Other than that I got 100% on my algebra 2 quiz (that I had to make up 'cause I missed it on Friday) and homework, whoo! I was so happy. I have a 92% in the class now. Also I got an A on the spanish vocabulary quiz we took today. Hee.

Holy cow, this entry is huge. o.O
