To be quiet honest, I don't think I payed attention in any of my classes today. I felt as if I was stuck in one of the Charlie Brown cartoons because the only sound coming from all of my professors mouths was "waah, wahh waah, wahwah". I could not concentrate if my life depended on it. I've been lost in a daze due to the fact that I'm dreading club soccer try-outs. I know it sounds crazy to be worried about a club sport rather than varsity, but I haven't played soccer competitively in a year.

For my entire soccer career, I've played along with the same group of girls. We were committed for a number of years to our travel team and high school varsity team. Because I played with the same girls for years upon years I became so accustomed to the way they played. I knew all of their weakness and strengths. However, I don't know any of the girls trying out for the team skill wise. Therefore, I'm extremely nervous and intimidated. I'm completely unaware of their skills, and adjusting to them is going to be a challenge. Plus, I have no idea if this is going to effect how I personally play on the team as well.

On top of that, I'm also skeptical on how playing a sport will effect my academic goal because I didn't play last year. I made this decision because I figured I should get used to being away from home for the first time and to develop a good working habit for my school work. I didn't want any distractions or other activities that would take away from my academic goals. However, once I finally did get into a routine, I found myself missing soccer more and more. Anyway, I hope all goes well, and if soccer doesn't work out for me, I'm sure I'll pick up something else.
