Life...

....is stressful. This week has been crazy. I'm not sure whether to say it's been good or bad but as of now I'm going to stick with bad. I did horrible on my math test which means for the first time in my life I am going to get a B. This didn't go over too well with my parents either....at all. Because of this, my parents said I can't have friends over on Friday. Now that wouldn't be too bad but this is basically the only day in the next month that I'll be able to do anything.

Speaking of friends, my dad and I made a deal that if I did so well at my football game, that I will have redeemed myself and I will be able to have friends over again. The good part is, for the first time since my concussion, I have a starting defensive position. Throughout the season I've started on special teams but not defense. That's like saying you only go in for the penalty kicks on soccer. Of course I've played when we were ahead, but considering we lost the past two games I didn't get that much playtime. Finally after all that time of giving it all I've got, and just wondering if coach noticed me, I know it's payed off. So that's a lot of pressure to do good, and a potential for a lot of hard work to be lost really quickly.

Next, I am trying to get my driver's license. In order for me to do this, my parents mandate that I must first have my eagle project done. I've been eligible to start working on my project since last December. This summer, I had a project signed off and ready to go and the day before I went to do it, it was shut down by one of the city employees. Now, I've called Primary Children's and I'm trying to get another project approved, but the only time it works to meet to get an approval, my parents won't be available.

So there's a lot of good things that seem to be becoming negative instead of positive. But, the week is still young. I still have football game to play, and Friday to (hopefully) look forward to. This week is also general conference and you can't go wrong with that.
