I was unable to go to O’Bryant last week because I had to take a friend to the hospital the night before and was up late there, so I knew I wasn’t going to be able to make it to O’Bryant in the morning. My friend is all good though so that’s good news. In rugby related news, I got to play in my first 7s tournament this past weekend and I started with the top side. I was shook to see my name on that roster for that tournament because it is one of the bigger ones that we get to play in this season. That being said, the biggest in terms of the caliber of teams that will be present, is this upcoming weekend. I hope my performance this past weekend gets me a roster spot for this Saturday. If not, I have other years, but our team this year is super special and is super good. We are #5 in the nation for a reason. That ranking comes after our fall 15s season where we went to nationals and had a few upsets. I was lucky enough to be on the roster for nationals and got some good playing time as well which I am hoping will allow me to consistently start next fall. We have 14 seniors on the team and it’s going to be a tough next few years as we will have to rebuild. Anyways, I’ve been working super hard in practices recently because my roster spot is far from secure and I want to prove that I deserve it. Hopefully I’ll make the cut for this weekend.

Again, I’m out of writing ideas so I will ramble. I was on the phone with my mom a few days ago and I was eating some Honey Bunches of Oats cereal and she told me that I should be eating a more balanced cereal or oat meal. Not going to lie I was a little bent, so I went out and bought some Quaker Oatmeal Squares cereal out of spite. I have yet to try it so I cannot rate the quality of the cereal, but it looks good?? I was also recently invited to a wedding. It is for one of my mentors from high school. I’m not sure I’m going to be able to go because it is in Virginia and is coming up this July. I’ll be free, but I’ll also be in California so it’s quite far for me to travel, especially if I’m working. Anyways that’s all that’s going on with me and I’m close to the word count suggestion so I can stop rambling now.
