back to school

Unread postby uconnvaulta » Mon Dec 29, 2003 4:38 pm

When does everyone go back to school to train, at uconn we go back the 4th while the rest of the school is back on the 20th, i cant wait to start competing, but the downside is being ona ghost town campus with like girls hockey team :crying: , i mean no offense but there is already enough testosterone for everyone already. But what do you guys do, when do you go back , and are you excited for this season to start already.

I know exactly what you mean when you say head case. last year and the begining of this year i couldnt clear a bar for anything even though in warm ups im skyuin like 16 then a bar goes up and i cant do a thing, but i worked thru it, thats all ya gotta do, head games suk, and stand in the way but set backs pave the way for come backs man

Heck yeah I'm excited. Without anything to keep me busy, I am bored to tears. Hey, just curious... what's the New England Record? See you all at Reno. Too bad I won't even be able to watch folks do the slots. Boo to that

First day of class today... we had to be back last week to train, for our first meet on the 10th... in Pocatello. No, we didn't get to go to the Summit... they sent our coach and one of the guys. Made me a little mad. And now i'm back to training by myself... the sprint coach doesn't want me now that we're in season, and my PV coach is there two days a week... :mad: i thought a D-1 school would be a little more *organized* than this. Sooo... what do you guys do on your non-vaulting days?

School Sucks

Unread postby vaulterpunk » Tue Jan 13, 2004 9:42 pm

It started here on the 12th and i have class at 8:00am almost everyday. Vaulting is good though. I would be looking for chicks to hang with, but it so cold they all are wearing like huge jackets and you can't tell what they really look like. Most of them are Mormons anyway, so what can you do. :mad:
