long time no blog #2

so it's been a really long time since i've blogged, almost a month.

things that have happened since then:
1)we went from number 1 to number 3. we lost to tech in the last second. we had an interception with eight seconds left but blake gideon dropped the ball after it fell right between his numbers. sucks. if he would've caught that ball, we would be the number one team in the nation without a doubt with a red carpet paving the way to the national championship where we would've potentially beaten florida. oh well, woulda coulda shoulda. there is still a slight chance of us making it to the big 12 championship game and the national championship game. we just need to win out and win out big. i know we'll definitely beat a&m by a lot (two years of extreme hate, i still haven't gotten over that 12-7 lost AT FREAKING HOME) but i'm worried about kansas. i don't want to win by a field goal or a touchdown. i need us to win by at least three touchdowns and we should be fine.

2. i went to ole miss!!!!!!!!!!! dang, talk about a good time! the weekend started off by us missing our 6:23 am flight. we wanted to leave coppell at 5:15 and I was ready...(sorry beth and blaine!) we were literally four minutes too late to our flight. oh well. we ended up flying out of dallas at 11:30. we got to memphis at 1 and we were in oxford by 3:15. went to a tri-halloween party (EN,EX,phi delt) at a club called the lyric, it was cool. i stayed in the EN house with adam. on saturday, we went to the game, groved it up for a while (love the grove and the amazing food) went to a KE party that night and it was alright. the next day we went to corky's in memphis and it was so good and so cheap!!! flew back to dallas, drove to college station and then drove back to austin. it was a great time. the alcohol was too expensive though. this is why i think texas is still the bigger party school. out of the top three in the nation, i've been to two out of three. well, i just checked the rankings and we're like number 7 with ole miss being number 4. we can party, for cheap. i really want all my ole miss friends to come to austin and see how we have fun. the grove is awesome, but it doesn't compare to sixth street.

3. the fall and rise of my history acc classes - so on the second tests I took in both of my history class, i made a 44 and 55 respectively. in my 1301 class, i studied my butt off knowing that i needed to do well to maintain my C. i just took my 2301 test last night. on saturday, i found out that my test was due on monday. i studied a little bit on saturday night, all day sunday and the majority of the day on monday. i needed to make at least a 72 on my test to increase my 68 to a C. i made an 85!!!!! it was awesome. i only missed six which is awesome. i can still make a B in the class, if i make a 100 on my next test. i think i can totally do it. the problems that i missed were problems that i had no idea. i could've totally studied more for the test. i'm going to try my hardest. i can only make a c in my other class due to my dumb ass professor. that's man. i'll end up with a B average in the class but because i made a 44 on one of the test, i will make a C. oh well

4. my coach told me that i was the best player on my volleyball team, skadoosh. even though I'm not captain (i have a problem with encouraging (ask my tribal comp co-coaches)) i gotta improve my encouraging skills because currently, my team except for a few guys HATES me. the chemistry that we had last year isn't there. i hope it improves! i love going to practice though and I can't wait to play in our first tournament. a&m hasn't seen us full strength so we should put up a good fight when we play them slash we should beat them. we are supposed to be playing in g. rollie white on friday at 6 against their second team where we will play a 3 out of 5 game match! i will not accept a five match win or loss. we need to beat them in only three or four games. it will be interesting to see how elbert puts the team together in those games.

my ghetto but awesome computer is losing battery so i want to wrap this up. i'll try and blog more this week. i want more readers
