Classes Today and Ultimate

So today I decided that there are a fair amount of attractive australian men, there just aren't many in my classes. In my Lit class we discussed a book called The Getting of Wisdom about a poor girl going to a wealthy school and trying to fit in during the late 1800's/early 1900's. I still need to read the book though... haha But it seems like a good book! And then I had my tutorial for my Aboriginal History class. My TA is half aboriginal and so is a boy in the class (who is not too bad looking). Other than that it is almost all Americans, almost all of whom are from Notre Dame. Then I had to go into the city for my art class. It was super awkward! We worked with the architecture class and had to discuss our feelings on the entrances of ally ways. No one really had much to say. Then we worked on perspective drawing which I'm getting a little better at, but I still need a lot of work. That lasted for a few hours and then I came back and got a quick bite to eat before I went to my first Ultimate practice. I was super nervous because I wasn't sure how good they would be/what to expect. As I should have figured, they were all really cool, as Ultimate people always are. There was also a girl there from UC Merced. We ran a lot of the same drills that we use at UCSC, but a couple were similar but just different enough to confuse me. Everyone was really nice and friendly. They all introduced themselves and were very encouraging. Oh, and it's coed which I'm not used to, but I like it. I didn't realize that they had all been doing try outs for a couple of weeks, so I don't think I'm going to be on their main team, but they have social practice Mondays 6-7:30 and on Wednesdays all the teams from the West Coast (which are only about 5 teams) play, so they said I could play on one of those teams. I'm not sure how it will work, I would like to get to know the team and hang out with them because they all seem really cool, but we will see. Then I played pool with some friends here and boy do I need some practice haha Anyway, that was my day today. I'll keep you guys posted on Ultimate!
