who would've thought hitting a ball with a stick would've been so hard? i mean, baseball isn't that hard, and hockey isn't that hard, but dammit, golf is just beyond me.
didn't keep score, but on a 9 hole course i managed to hit 3 trees, 2 swamps, 1 house (it went over the mesh fency thing..it made quite the sound), and i tripped over my bag once. i managed to roll it to the green a couple times...and even get the ball in the hole 9 times...
good times, i think i might even try again...
visited olympic park yesterday...went to the driving range (much more fruitful than the golfing course). walked around, pretended to be an olympic athlete...
speaking of spiders...(thanks for reminding me keegan), there was a HUGE huntsman spider on the wall in the house. i took a picture and will show you all later on...not only was it massive, but it was carrying an egg sac. NOT COOL. they say you eat 8 spiders in your sleep over your lifetime...my god, if i woke up and i had that things legs in my teeth when i woke up i think i'd have to kill myself. or drink disinfectant or something. ugh.
still haven't read all the emails...i'm sorry...i will do it by...tomorrow. oh, and postcards start going out tomorrow! if you haven't already, leave your address :)
"cheers"

i'm really bad at this
okay. here's my excuse: since i've gotten here i haven't been going on the internet cause i basically wake up, eat lunch, go out to see the sights around 11, and then don't come back til 7, eat dinner, and then fall asleep. so. i've decided to take it easy (-ier) and i'm going to try and be home around 1pm-4pm (ish) here, so that it will be 7pm-10pm(ish) there! and THEN...i can actually talk to some people!! YAY! so...that'll kinda kick ass. this is my goal for the next few days. in the last two days i've played tennis (meggie, you'll be happy to hear that i didn't hit the ball over the fence at all! and my serve is almost scary :) ), and i went to the driving range this morning and found out that irons are my friend. big time. and i'm actually attempting a semi-real game (9 holes) later this week...which means i'll have to go and buy LOTS of golf balls...today my dad and i were hitting wiffle balls in the backyard and we lots all three balls to other yards...oops. i suppose i'll start posting pictures today...oh...and read my emails...and i may even respond to them..shocking.
wish me luck!
hope school is kicking ass for everyone...remember, when you're having fun during summer, i'll be in school...
