Well I got to school and was greeted by quite a few people wondering where I have been. That alone just put my day in the perfect mood because I mean hey, it was noticed I was missing. That at least means I'm thought of every once in a while right? Well along with that school went pretty quick. I didn't have much to do and didn't miss too much so it breezed on by. The highlight of the school day was definitely seeing Frau Zanella after all this time. That woman is my 2nd mom. She has been there for me through everything since the day I met her and am grateful for the rest of my life. She is a woman that I truly love as a person. I had my 2 classes with her, ate lunch (outside which was really nice), went to stats, sat in study hall, and went to track.
Track was a pleasant surprise. There were a ton of kids that showed up unlike the past 3 day of a maximum of 3 people. A lot of people came which made me really proud. Kids are dedicated this year and that is what is going to make a great team. I swear I say it every day all the time but I am so excited for track. It's the season I favor the most and just love every bit about it. I have very high expectations for it this year and I'll be working myself to the max in attempt to accomplish them.
After track I showered up, ate and got ready to go out for a pregame shopping spree with Dylan Bongiorni for the hockey game. He picked me up, we went and got our paint, got me some nice tight yoga shorts and just drove around. I love hanging out with him. Dylan that is. He is a true friend and the kind of person I can relate to. We have a lot of the same interests and can bull shit about anything really. We drove around listened to our country and just talked and talked about our lives. We ended up at our friend Garretts house and shot basketball for a while. Garrett is also someone I've known since like forever. We grew apart through the middle school and early high school stages but as we entered our senior year, we got a lot closer. I like that because he is the kind of friend you want to have. He will always have your back, will sit and talk about life with you and is just overall a good person. He is one of the kids I am most sure is going to go far in life. He has his priorities in life straight, is a hard worker, and will do whatever it takes to accomplish his goals (hence 2 GOLD state medals). He is someone I'll miss in college, along with Dylan, and will try to catch up with him anytime I get.
Finally Dylan and I headed to the game and got a nice parking spot. We took off our shirts, got the paint and hooked each other up. Since there were only 2 of us, we had one name as an option. One of our stars. Mo Coburn. On our backs I represented the numbers 9, 51, and 16. 3 of my good friends and 3 people I madly respect. Dylan wore the number 93 for our star goalie Jason Kumpfmiller. I'm going to get a little side tracked here but Jason is a person I want to talk about.
Jason, or Kumpf as he is known in West A and most of the world, is a kid that I was really good friends with early in high school. We hung out a good bit, partied together, and just always had a good time. Through sophomore and junior year we grew apart a lot. We could actually say that we had some bad blood between us for reasons I cannot even remember. This senior year during the football season we put our differences aside for the sake of the student section. Since then I guess we can label our friendship as cool. Not best friends but we respect each other. This kid has been through a lot. He is one of the strongest kids I know and just keeps grinding through the struggles. He has some strength I don't know if I will ever have. Through the rest of this senior year, I hope that we can become better friends. I know he, like Garrett, will always have one of his boys' backs. That is the kind of kid you can never hate. I know that we're going to wind up in the same house as each other but hopefully some day I'll maybe get a call inviting me to play some poker at his house and just chill. I'm fairly certain over time we could become tight.
Back to the hockey game, though. It was an easy win. Our paint and enthusiasm got his a 6-0 win with Mo having 4 points. He played outrageously. It was a great game to watch and showed us why this team is the best in the section. I have high hopes for the team as they are the face of West Allegheny Sports. After the game is where I'm at now. Home, cleaned up, and just excited to blog. Today was a great day and tomorrow is going to be great as well. I'm hanging out with Eryne for the first time in forever. We're probably going to watch the most recent Twilight movie. I'm not too thrilled about the series but she likes them and when she is happy, so am I.
Well blogger I must say goodnight to you. I'm posting my first photo ever as it is a great memory of tonight. My quote I made up is one that I truly enjoy. "Although the paint runs off, the memories last forever." Thank you all for reading, I know it was long and I apologize. You are all truly great. I love you all. See you all tomorrow.
