1st Journal entry?
9 years ago
So, to make my page slightly more interesting, I guess I will fill in journals once in a while. From what I have noticed on other peoples pages, Journals are just for recapping a cool event in their lives or asking questions. If that is what it is for, I could write for hours. I guess I could summarize my last 4 weeks of college:)
So, I am a freshman in college and my desired major is Aerospace Engineering. This is probably one of the coolest majors out there just because it can help satisfy my need to explore what is unknown. In the next following years, I would like to get an internship with either NASA or Space X to help aid me in my path to success.
Back to the college thing. If you have not gathered from my page yet, I do love soccer and without it, I would be a couch potato XD. I am outside everyday practicing drills on the small goal on campus in order to reach the best of my ability. In the begging of college, I tried out for the club soccer team for my school. There were a total of 90 kids that were trying out and there were only 4 available spots. This was kind of nerve racking because I was a freshman and many of the other competitors were upper class men. I new how to play at a high level just because of all the major tournament I have been in, but I was still scared out of my wits. To add, I am a goalkeeper and there were 7 trying out that were also all older than me. After blocking every shot to my ability over the next week of tryouts, I made it to the final cuts. Not sure how I made it that far, but I did and that was an accomplishment in itself. I did not however make the final team. I was devastated and did not understand why kids that seemed below me in their skill levels got chosen. Since this day, about 3 weeks ago, I have been outside 3 hours a day practicing on everything you can think of from freestyle juggling to extension diving to taking shots on net. I realized the only person to blame is myself for not practicing enough before the tryout. This spring is the next tryout date and I am determined to make this squad if it is the last thing I do.
Enough of the soccer talk now... I went off a little too much there... Oh well XD. The rest of school so far has been a blast. The only bad part of my class schedule is Chemistry for engineers. This class started off easy and is progressively getting harder. Just yesterday, our teacher attempted to teach us the quantum mechanical atom structure. This did not sit well with the majority of the class XD. More good news about the academic side of things is that I have completed my entire math class in the first 4 weeks of school. This is great and now I should be able to advance to Pre calculus by the end of this year. If I stay on the right track, Calc 2 will be at the end of sophomore year:/ Not too excited about that class.
So there is my update because I am low-key kinda bored right now and am trying my hardest to procrastinate my Humanities essay. If you read this all, congrats! You found out more about me and you made my day. If any of you academic people out there need help, you know the right Charmander to go to :)

FA+

And there is you are also very sportive, too. Wow, I'm sure if you keep going like that you'll have a lot of options soon. Much success with your training, dude! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you to make it in next time in the tryouts. =3
I'm also sure that you'll make it through that essay and understanding the Chemistry lessons all soon enough. Way to go, Red! I root for ya! (^.=.^)
