I ain't sayin' that I didn't enjoy the soccer season at Oly High. In fact it pretty much kicked ass. We won every game and our coach really didn't give a hoot about what we did at practice, so we just goofed off the whole time. But I have to say, in spite of all that, soccer was a huge time suck. I'd come home completely pooped, take a shower, eat dinner, and by then it would be 7:00 and I'd still have a pile of homework to do. So, the season had its good points and its bad. But my favorite part by far happened this week, on the day we had our final game.
Well for starters the other team was about 45 minutes late so we had plenty of time to joke around. Everybody gave each other big fat presents as "parting gifts" (which I don't get cause' we'll still see each other every day). We all brought silly string and planned to spray our coach with it after the game. When the other team finally showed up we started playing and scored 5 goals on them in the first 15 minutes (HA!). My mom's friend Amy came and embarrassed me by screaming my name as loudly as she could on the sidelines. Needless to say the game was kinda boring because the other team couldn't play but it was all worth it when we each shot an entire can of silly string at our coach, all 22 of us. The fumes smelled so bad and there were sticky gooey strings all over the field and our coach. I'm pretty sure its gonna take him a while to get that smell out of his clothes, but he seemed like a good sport about it. I sweat it may have been the most fun thing I've done yet this fall. Well, that and TPing our coach's house.
We're not very nice to him are we?
