You don't give crack to crack addicts. You don't give alcohol to alcoholics. You don't let Teresa watch Jon & Kate Plus Eight. I don't really have free week nights. And the only time that I semi-do is the 2 hour break I have after class and before ultimate practice. During this time, Jon & Kate Plus Eight is on which is the most adorable show ever. For those of you who don't know, there's this couple (Jon and Kate.. SHOCKING!) with eight kids--twins and sextuplets. And it just follows them around. The twins are seven now, and sextuplets are three. The kids are sooo cute (they're halfies, so cute super-sized). And every time I watch the show, my urge to procreate at this very instant peaks. I love kids! And I want a kid. Haha.
My roommates are used to my constant whining about how I want kids now. We've even thought of names for my show when I have more kids than average. But I think I've realized that I should not watch the show anymore. It's just flaunting what I can't have in front of me. As much as I want to have kids, I realize that I probably shouldn't right now and kids are a huge responsibility and very expensive. So I suppress my urge to have kids--barely. As I watch Jon & Kate Plus Eight, I realize how alcoholics must feel when people are drinking if front of them. And I think I should stop watching it because of it's flaunting temptation. I love kids! (While watching Jon & Kate and taking Developmental Psychology, I think I want to work with kids in some capacity.)
I've always wanted lots of kids. And by lots I mean max four, ideally three. Haha, it's a lot if you're an only child. But I honestly have no idea why I really want kids now, even before Jon & Kate, that show only fueled my hunger. Perhaps my biological clock is ticking at the ripe age of 19 (almost 20).
Onto other aspects of my life. I have three midterms in two days next week. I should probably study. I'm too tired, school is hard. Ultimate is good. I'm having a lot of fun right now. If only I wasn't so tired when I go to practice, or also high of my want for children. I honestly just need sleep. I have almost no free time for myself. I'm never taking 20 units again nor working 15 hours simultaneously. Or either.

Unexpected Events
After a turn of unexpected events... I am now co-captain of women's team with Danica. It was completely unexpected, and came on me pretty quick. When I was first asked, I asked for time to think about it because it's a big commitment, and nothing had prepared me for something like this. And I wasn't sure if I was ready to give up (not really give up) my me-time on a whim. But after contemplating it for 2 days, I decided that this was something that I wanted. And even though the timing was kinda weird, it was an awesome opportunity.
We had Bay Area Mixer (BAM if you will) this weekend. So much fun. It was great, I loved it. Danica and I both played over half the points, so we were pretty dead. There was supposed to be a showcase game that we were supposed to play in, but that was canceled which was good, we were probably in no condition to play another game. Hahaha. There's SOOOOO much potential this year. We have amazing rookies, awesome crusites. This is going to be a good year. So much better than last year. Oh, and I can flick huck now. What what. Double threat. Haha. I remember teams last year catching on that I have a good backhand, and forced me forehand... And that was bad. But it's okay, this year I can do both.
About school, I'm taking 20 units. Thinking about maybe dropping a class since I got a zero out of ten on our first quiz. Ouch. I don't think I've ever got a zero before. Blahhhh. Haha. And working 15 hours. Plus practice. So I stay busy.
Ooooh, and NEVER ENDING PASTA at Olive Garden! So excited. I'm gonna eat so much!
**EDIT: I did not get a zero on my quiz. Another TA got my quiz, so my TA didn't have it and just marked it as a zero. In actuality I received a nine out of ten. Felt the need to clarify so I don't come off as a complete idiot.
