Softball Shout Out!

The Syracuse.com softball state rankings just came out the other day and we were number 20!! I'm not sure if we had made these rankings the last three years that I was on the team so I can't really compare it to the past couple years. But I would say number 20 is pretty great still. We have been doing really well and I'm excited to keep playing more games and hopefully keep winning! I was a little upset about the rankings though because we just beat Solvay last week but they were number 17 om the list! That isn't right! So hopefully we will just keep moving up in the next couple of weeks. I was looking at some of the other rankings in class AA and class A and it seems like the same teams are always at the top of those lists. Our whole team was happy about #20 but there are teams out there that are ranked #1 or #2 every week and it doesn't even phase them! Those are the bigger schools though that have like 50 girls come out and try to make the team. We unfortunately don't have those kind of numbers here but whatever! So this is a shout out to all my softball girls: good job and keep up the hard work!!

Some School Stuff

What many people are talking about these days is how graduation is "so close" and the school year is "almost over". But, in reality, yes, we are closer to getting out of here then we were in December, but there are still 9 solid weeks left of school. In my opinion, this isn't a short time. Short to me is like 2 weeks. So, I wish people would stop getting my hopes up and saying "yeah, we graduate soon" or "we're almost done with high school", CAUSE WE AREN'T!
I am one of those people who is sick of high school though (which puts me with probably most of the senior class). I'm not going to complain to much, but I just feel like I'm ready to leave. It's hard to go to school with the same people for years and years because everyone just gets tired of seeing the same people everyday at school. It's not that I don't like my friends, but I'm  ready to go make more friends and meet people that aren't just the normal Homer/Cortland guys and gals. It's kind of funny, that I just said that because at the end of last year I was dreading this time when I would have to leave. There are some things that I will always love and will absolutely miss about this school, and it will be sad when they are gone.
