soccer

Today marked the start of what is already proving to be a very successful soccer career.

To say I have been eagerly awaiting soccer season is a gross understatement. I signed up weeks ago and have been counting down the seconds while I practice at home. I had even perfected my soccer pose, modeling it after one of the players I saw in the Seattle Sounders brochure my grandmother sent.

I woke up this morning around 4:00 ready to go. NOW. We arrived a bit early to soccer and that just presented another grueling wait. Once I finally got on the field, I proved myself as the fastest most accurate player with the best concentration. Thankfully, I also have the only set of parents who don't stand at the sidelines and bark orders at me about what the coach has just said. (Note to those parents: your kids were listening to the coaches until you started hollering. The second you say something, your kids stop playing soccer and wander off to talk to you.)

Soccer caused me to be famished so we lunched at Whole Foods afterward. I had pizza, mashed potatoes, a cinnamon roll, and apple juice. carbs!
