Gig'em Week Part Two (really just the soccer game, won't lie)

Saturday afternoon. It is boiling hot outside, and I am sitting in the SCC, writing about life.

Last night was AMAZING.

I will reiterate what I said yesterday: until last night, I had never seen a live soccer game. Never watched a televised one, either. What I didn't bargain on was how freaking INTENSE it is. This was women's soccer, and these chicks are running into each other, knocking each other over, diving, dodging, battering each other's shins...we played Virginia Tech, which someone said is ranked as one of the top teams in the nation? I could see why. It was tough. REALLY tough.

Sat next to this guy I'd only talked to the day before and a girl who was in my cabin...two of my counselors were behind me. So even when I wasn't paying attention it was amazing. That wasn't very often, though--Aggies are LOUD...and we had chants for everything. Oh, and if I didn't understand something, there were a few people willing to explain. Grateful for that, meant I actually understood some of the things that where whizzing right over my head. One of my favorite parts was that one of the counselors (who is a junior) granted us J.P.'s (junior privileges) for the game. That's a big freakin deal, and it was great.

Oh, and best part? We WON. 5-3. A&M, GIVE US ROOM!

After, too, a few of us went and watched Vampires Suck over at Cinemark ($4 movies? they treat college kids well in this town!). Absolutely stupid and ridiculous. I loved it. It's getting framed over my bed. Right over my collection of Stephanie Meyer novels. Yes, I have read Twilight, and watched the movies. I enjoy the books because I imagine Bella as being played by Ellen Page (a.k.a. Juno) and thus as ridiculously sarcastic with everything she says. No WAY is she meant to be serious, I claim, because it's the only thing that keeps me from hating them. Probably why I hate the second book so much, it puts an awful large dent in that theory...point being, I hate the movies with a passion, and thus I very much enjoyed Vampires Suck because I SWEAR it's a frame by frame mockery of the Twilight movies. Other than that, it has no real value, but if you've seen Twilight...go see it. With friends. And enjoy the roast.

Got back home way late. Great night though.

Right now there's a guy at the SCC with me...roommate of one of my fish camp people, he's kind of been adopted into our group. We're going to grab lunch after this at Sbisa, he seems pretty cool.

So, I guess...I'm done for today. Yeah. Go watch a soccer game, if you haven't. Its really fun.

S'all. No witty sign-off today.
