This past week has been one crazy week, what with all of the soccer practiceing and all of the homework. I've kinda been slackin off in my AP geography class and had to do 2 giant book work packets with questions that were unaswered in the book. I tried to do them on the way to and from St. George, but that wasn't going to happen just because it's St. George with friends to watch soccer. So nothing got done except me taking a 6 hour long nap on the way to St. George.
Also I had to go to soccer practice every day since forever ago. Not only is Jordan High School's soccer teams's conditioning really time consuming but it's tiering and I never have the will and or time to do my homework. If only I could have at least 6 more hours in a day.
It's not that I don't know what I'm doing when I do my homework. I get the stuff that I'm given to do, I just don't ever want to do it. I have other things to be doing. Such as playing tons of music on tons of different insrtuments, also playing more soccer, and also Call of Duty is alot higher on the priorities of mine.
So basicly my whole week sucked last other than the fact that I got to go to St. George, and this week wasn't the best since I had to catch up on all of the stuff that I slacked off on and now here I'm sittin here trying to catch up in this class.

Soccer's the Only Thing Worth It
So basicly, all that I have been doing the past 2 weeks is go to soccer conditioning at Jordan High School to help the coaches get to know me before tryouts and because it's good for me. I get so dang tired though. All we do is run, run and run some more.
First we start with a ten lap warm up. And the laps are pretty dang big too. How big? Try around the school. Along with this, whenever Chin-Chin says to get down we stop and do either 10 pushups, 20 situps, or 10 frog hops. This dosen't sound too bad but while you're running a 5 k warm up, it make it a bit more dificult. The next thing we do is stairs. It's pretty much another 5k run, but this time with 2 flights of stair mixed in. Still doing Chin-Chin's workouts inbetween. Some times he likes to amp things up by makeing us go up the stairs on 1 foot, then the other then both feet at the same time. This isn't too hard either but it's actually kind of confusing trying to jump on every step.
The next part isn't too hard. We mainly just do core workouts and the leg workouts like wall sits. We did burnouts yesterday which are where you go for as long as you can. I don't mean to toot my own horn but I sat out most of the team. The only three guys who beat me were a senior, an over acheiving junior, and this sophmore kid who went for a whole hour one time.
When we're all done with that, we'll do a cool down and have a cheer and all that stuff. State rules say that we can't play with a soccer ball with a coach around till after tryouts so most the time after we're done with conditioning, we'll wait till Chin Chin leaves and go sneak into the little gym to play. It's not even really a game though. Everyone just goofs around and bags on Chin Chin. I don't think anyone that was on the team last year really likes him very much. I don't mind him but I think it's funny. With the name Chin Chin, you'd think this guy would be Asian right? No he's some tall curly haired white guy.
So all in all I'm just saying that I hate going to it but if it help me get on the team, it's worth it cause I don't want to end up on some prvisional team.
