pictures. rugby. papers.

so i have a paper due may 8th. its 2,500 words. for my post war reconstruction [1945-1952] class. i don't know which topic to do, and i have yet to even start researching. i hate when i do this. and i always say i am going to stay on top of my work, but clearly i fail miserably at this. go me.
i went to the rugby game yesterday. it was GORGEOUS out. thank god, cause in the morning it looked like it was going to pour. sadly, we lost = [ 19-9 lame cardiff. but it was super fun. i met up with melaney and reagan and then we went to the pub, got some food and beer, and then walked around cardiff for a little. then we went to the game, and it was so funny cause we had NO idea what was going on except we wanted the green and white team to win. and we cheered when everyone else did, and learned a few rules, but were still very confused. but it was fun. there was also 3 guys who decided to streak across the field, interesting to say the least....but they all got tackled by the security guards. very funny. in all in was a super fun afternoon and evening.
i talked to ryan last night for a while, but we like really talked about a lot of stuff, like he might not be visiting camp if certain people come back, and he is thinking about moving back home, and me visitings, and just about a lot of stuff, and it was a really good talk, we haven't had one of those in a while. and he talked to his momma and she said louie, one of his pups, got attacked by something, maybe a groundhog, and has a huge cut and had to get stitches and maggie, his other pup, killed it. cause maggie is my hero. and poor louie is on medicine and everything. oh he is so cute though. i miss his dogs. expecially maggie. and it is funny cause ryan has a picture of me on his night stand thingy and then there is a picture of the dogs. and i told him we need to make a copy of the picture of them for me. cause i miss themm. ahha.
oh, i also sent in all my paperwork for randolph-macon. so it is official..eeek! i am so excited for it. like, so so excited, but when i was mailing it in, i got really nervous. it is just going to be weird to start all over again, take 3. haha.



this is the team we wanted to win.

on your line out question (when they lift the guy and throw the ball in) the team who gets to throw the ball in gets to "set" the line out, that is, they can put up to 7 in line to possibly catch the ball. The other team (the team defending) can match them (put the same # of people in). However, there is a situation where the scrumhalf (#9) can run in and be lifted (TRICKY!!) and then the defenders wouldn't be able to match it. Thats probably what happened here! Anyway, glad you enjoyed the game - AND GET TO WORK ON YOUR PAPER!
