a world full of wow. no, really. wowwwwwww.

step drills. 2 days. collapsable hurdles, each marker 5 m apart.
6x150m
treadmill workout

OK I AM SO ANGRY. WHY?

1. i now realize what senioritis is. some people just become lazy, which actually gives senioritis a bad name. this is what i think senioritis really is:
its the k-12 system in an education shithole. this is what i mean.
maybe people didn't realize this, but 12th grade is VERY different. and i've felt this way since the 2nd week of school. maybe you ARE burnt out. but more importantly, your days are numbered and you can't help but feel detached from the school. you cant help but fell that there is not a lot you can do to stay active because... part of being active is long term. you are not on the long term track. you are on the LEAVING track. by the time it's 2nd semester, not ONLY do you feel more detached, but wat you're really waiting for are college acceptances. and rejections. i made sure it was my goal to keep learning, because that's wat school ultimately is about, right???
no. u WANT TO LEARN, but you still have to work your ass off because grades still matter. i dont mind learning, i mind that there are STILL GRADES. it is a pain to get up everyday for school and wonder exactly how my econ ap teacher grades. or doesn't grade? i love my classes. no joke.
i hate how my teachers are still evaluating what i do in class.

2. I CAN'T STAND THIS RIGHT NOW. OMG. omg. omg.
i don't know if you noticed (if anyone is actually reading this right now), but have you guys even noticed the facebook statuses, particularly the seniors right now? yes, college letters are coming in. what irks me the most is that they are blatantly stating WHAT SCHOOL they are getting accepted from. do you know who you might be hurting in the process? i know you're happy. any college letter, really, should be pretty freakin' proud. i'm happy for ALL of you guys who get into a school. thank goodness. but seriously, please refrain from bragging what school. in my honest opinion, its not the most classy. im not announcing to the world that i am a fatass hybrid of a husky-spartan-trojan-anteater-bananaslug-mustang. do you hear it on my facebook status? i didn't think so. yeh. i'm sorry. i really can't take it anymore.

i should DEFINITELY FOCUS ON MY HOMEWORK. but that has yet to kick in. that is all.

more stuff i basically forgot to record.

today: treadmill workout cuz of the rain!
increase incline simultaneous with increasing speed, then back to walking. 45sec-1 min intervals

other days n stuff:
alternate leg drills. 3 hurdles at a time. emergency leg stuff.

flyers, 2 hurdles each lane. 100 meters
2 sets, 5-7 min rest, 3 sets.

3 groups based on speed: 350 m repeats, average about 1:09 for me. 8 times.

10x100m repeats, must stay consistent. averaged 15.9 sec.
