Sweet Saturdays

After the week I've been having, this sweet, lazy Saturday is exactly what I want and need!  Intramural started last week! So far our dodgeball team is 1-1 but I think the first week is going to be named the practice week because they have to re-do the schedule anyways. First week and a team gets disqualified.... but they deserved it. They showed up wasted, took the game wayyyy too seriously, and then fought the other team...oh and I was standing in the doorway between the two who started the fight and almost got trampled- yay first week of dodgeball.  We'll just say we're happy that team is no longer competing...who gets wasted on a Monday night to play intramural dodgeball? Like seriously? Oh well, their problem, not mine and I got a good story out of it. Back to our team...we need a little work- then again all I contribute to the team (besides being caption and running it all) is war cries, weak throws, and defensive distraction.  Not like I get hit at all, usually my ball gets caught or I'm the last one in on my team and can't catch the ball to bring more in...but it's fun all in all.
I can't wait for bowling next Wednesday! It's going to be a blast! Maybe we'll be the champs again?! :)
Yesterday I had my service learning for my student teacher hours. Remember I'm working in an all-autistic classroom for 6 hours on Fridays. It's so rewarding, fun, and exciting...especially after the day I had yesterday with the kids. We went swimming, and I was hanging with one of the kindergarten boys named Leo, and was trying to get him into the water.  One of the teacher warned me..."he never gets in past the steps and will just sit on the top on...he's stubborn."  You can't tell me something like that and not have me try to make him go further.  Let's just say by the time swimming was over Leo and i were moving around in the water, teaching him to push a floaty noodle in front of him as he kicks his legs, and showing him how to blow bubbles in the water. :) All the teachers kept complementing him and I during it, and it was the topper of the week! Can't wait to get in the pool next week with him!
Besides spending hours on end in the library, going to class, work, and everyyyything in between my week was long, slow, rewarding, great, productive, and almost over!! Today is a lazy day...work in 2 hours, cleaning the apartment, laundry, small amount of homework, watch my new netflix movie I received last night, and topping it off by going to watch our lady volleyball team kick some butt!  Today will be lazy, and great! Hope yours are too! And your week! :)
