I am back to soccer practice tomorrow, which is exciting I have been running around a bit and my leg is feeling much better so lets hope it stays sound. We won the first game of the season on saturday so we're off to a good start. The girls team I coach had a trial game on sunday, and despite some very solid play we lost 1-0. It could be forgiven however as last night was the pubcrawl for the men's & women's teams, everyone (myself included) was feeling a bit slow today.
I had my first welcome(back) to college moment last week when I spent many, many, many hours studying for a finance maths test and I just felt I wasn't getting it. However, in the 50,000th hour of study it all started to make sense and I feel confident it went well... I find out my score tomorrow morning so finger crossed. This school stuff actually takes a dedicated amount of time and I have started treating it like a job- where I get up and put in x number of hours a day until it's done. Now I only have 1 paper, and one test before fall(spring) break when I get to see my parents and take a couple weeks away from class.
In addition to wrapping up the first half of the first semester I am hoping to get some training time in helping out with the swim teaching at university. It's the next step in becoming Austswim certified so that I can teach swimming and go back to work, sadly. I passed the written test last week and now I need to observe and help out until I feel confident to take my own class and get graded for that and my lesson plans.
Ok that's enough for now- I am going to post some pictures that i have stored up then get back to homework.. have a great week everyone.
