Spontaneity is the spice to life

Today could have been an average ordinary thursday, but with some quick decisions, it turned out to be quite lovely!

I jumped on the opportunity to go bowling which was the first time in a really long time...i broke 100 for 2 of the 3 games and had some strikes in there :)
Its funny how this opportunity came about however, I was just on facebook chatting with people and started talking to a aussie friend and he was signing off because he said he was about to go bowling, so some might say i invited myself But, he did actually offer the invitation and offered to pick me up, so it was all good. Then, this afternoon, i found out about some pick-up bball that was happenning later on and decided that it had been too long since i have played, especially in the "game" mode...so i went and turned out to be what i expected, which was a big group of guys and me...Daunting to some but i prefer it that way.
I'm not going to say i wasn't rusty because none of my shots started falling in until the 3rd game but once i found my rhythm again,....well, they were impressed :)
Also, my coach would have been proud because i made almost all my free throws which decided teams. Muscle memory is an interesting thing and I love that i still have it after all these years.
Unfortunately, i collided with another guy and got this Huge hematoma (massive bruise) right on my shin ...it swelled up so much but being the girl and not wanting to prove that point i just ran off the pain....only to be paying for it tonight but thats the price that must be paid to run with boys!
And another sad fact...i have been going to the gym pretty much everyday for the whole semester, and i am more sore from these 4games of basketball than i have ever been from any of those workouts!

This afternoon really made me miss my days in high school and being apart of a team. Those were the good ol days! Im hoping i can play intramurals back at winthrop next semester but we'll see.
Well, until later...im taking some advil and going to bed! i hope i can move tomorrow hahaha
