Ever try to accomplish something when you're mind is somewhere else? Try being in class while preparing for a huge playoff game.

Its game day everyone!

It's going down tonight! I can't wait and I know my teammates can't either. Its first period and I'm sitting in my digital communications class right now. I'm supposed to be doing work but oh well!

I'm hoping school will be a breeze today but I know it won't be. I have to finish up a civics test, take an AP Stats test and a physics quiz. I never understood why all teachers wait until Friday to give all of their quizzes and tests. That makes it harder for us students to prepare. Along with that, I have to do a group presentation in English. I don't like presentations at all because I feel like I'm always going to mess up. I can get through it though so I'm not even going to worry about it.

This week has gone by super fast. It feels like it was just Monday. I found out this week that I was selected to the South Puget Sound League 1st Team All League Offensive Line, 1st Team All League Defensive Line, SPSL Offensive Lineman of the Year, SPSL Defensive Lineman of the Year and I was selected to the Tacoma News Tribune All Area Team for Offensive Line. All these awards are cool and everything, but they don't mean much to me if our team doesn't come out of the season with our overall goal of a state championship.

That's all for now. I hope to see everyone at the game tonight! 7:30 at Auburn. Wish us luck!
