Back at it, almost

Finally starting to get over that bug, whatever it was. It turns out lots of people are sick lately. I made it back to school today, which was good because it's really not a good time to get too behind. I'm aiming to be back for practice tomorrow. Probably not anything too long yet, because I know I will be told to make sure I am fully recovered. Don't worry, I will for sure be smart about it this time. I have to, with training camp coming up. It's setting in how soon that is, but I don't have time to be excited at the moment. There's so much going on in the last few days before I leave, including several big projects. And by big projects I mean making blood glow with forensic luminal, throwing eggs off the roof without it breaking, and getting to work on Edgar-Marie. Let me introduce you to Ed-Marie, he/she (not sure yet) is the rabbit whose skeleton Allison and I will be reconstructing. As in a dead bunny, that will be skinned, gutted, boiled, and glued back together (the bones, that is). Yummy. Just kidding, I think it sounds awful but I'm pretending to be excited about it so that maybe it won't be so bad. No other high schools or universities I've known so far seem to do this project and people always think we are kidding. But this is legit, so wish me luck. Anyways, we aquired this dead body today just by chance; someone overheard us asking another person with a farm if they had any chickens we could use, and said they actually happened to have a dead rabbit. Not the most ideal, but better than the back-up plan of asking the Humane Society. Mmm, skinning and boiling puppies and kittens. I stopped at the thrift store and picked up a nice big pot and some knives that we will not mind throwing away once this project is done. Wow, I actually had no intention of writing about all this today... anyways school is as crazy as ever and I can't wait to escape to the heat in Tucson, where all I have to worry about is working my butt off by biking up mountains every day! I heard before my very first training camp that it is so hard that you think you're going to die, but as soon as it's over, you can't wait to do it all again. So true. 12 days until the fun begins... (my definition of fun, remember) but back to getting some work done so I can go to bed early and get fully recovered!
