Austin, October 1st
I can't believe how fast the time runs... Yet October... Hey, then soon is Halloween. My second Halloween in the USA. I hope this one will be as much fun as in Toledo, OH.
I had a eye doctors appoitment this morning. It had not make sense to go to school for 10 minutes and then go to the doctor -my way to school is more than 10 minutes, and its in the other dirrection like the eye doctor- so Gary and I went to the 'International House Of Pancake' for breakfast. Then I went to the doctor. My eyes are okay. At least with the contacts. In the next days I will get some new contacts. But now I can still use my one-month-lenses.
But now I had to go to school. I was there at about 10 o'clock, so I had 15 minutes Algebra 2. And great... they wrote a quizz, so I can go after school to the teacher and write it then...
Like every friday we were in the weight room during football class. I did a good workout. Particularly proud am I still of the squads or squas or how they are called. Two 45 pounds and two 10 pounds weights plus the stick.
For this week our Seniors (hmm why do I think this were the Seniors?) have prepared something special. Car Bash!
They organized two cars, sprayed one of them green. On both Cedar Park and stuff like that and we students could bash them in our Lunch time.
After school I wrote the quizz. I needed just about 12 minutes, but I missed my bus... So I had to wait until someone could pick my up.
When I stood outside, PJ asked my, if I can help to push one of the destroyed cars behind the school. Why not, I have nothing better to do, so I helped. We were about 10 boys, and still it was hard to do.
10 boys for one car?? Yes, later we saw that the emergency breake blocked the wheels... Stupid.
We hit the car a bit with the hammer, after we brought it to the parking lot behind the school. Some of the light bulbs weren't destroyed, and the mirror were still where they should be. Well, now not anymore.
In the evening I went to the Football game. Vista Ridge Rangers versus Cedar Park Timberwolves.
The JV black team -my team- beat them on thursday, the JV red team lost. So now I wanted to see which Varsity team is better.
There I met Steffen and Jessica, two Germans, Adam and Johnathan, two guys from my football team, Moraia, a girl from my theater class and Torri, a grl from my English class. Later I met some other people I knew. Many of the football team, but some others, too.
Steffen and I waved to some of the marching band. And I waved to y spanish teacher. I was not sure if she saw me, so I stopped, right when she started to waving back.
We shouted for Sivonna. She is one of the conductors of the marching band. But she didn't hear us.
It was a exciting game. Cedar Park scored very fast. But we could score, too. Then they again, then we. In the 4th quarter we had more points. Everyone was happy. But about 20 seconds before end Cedar Park made a touchdown. It was 34:35. If Cedar Park makes the extra point it's 35 for both.... but they did not kick the ball for one point, no, they made a second touchdown. And this it worth 2 points... 36:35. And just a few seconds to play.
Our team started a great attack, but at the 40 yard line they were stopped. So we lost against the rivale Cedar Park. The first time in this season that our Varsity team lost.
It was a sad atmosphere. First everyone was so happy and suddenly almost everyone was quiet.
Of course we clapped and sung for our team, but it was completely different then the last game I saw.
But I have to see the positive things. My team was the only team who was able to beat Cedar Park. And it was the first time, that Vista Ridge JVs could beat them.
The JV black and the Varsity team have now the same numbers of wins and losses in this season, but the black team has a longer winning series.
Always look on the bright side of life...
