Tonight was beautiful. It was perfect and, therefore, exactly what we needed. I was completely exhausted (I have no idea why), but I fought back the urge to hurl (probably nervousness) and pressed on at the beginning. After we started playing the games in the order of Summit, I felt much better because I wasn't standing in a perpetual lunge with my left leg.
Starting out in basketball relay, we didn't do horrible. We had a couple mistakes, but we got rid of them like Soulja Boy got rid of the need for English and purpose in rap songs. My bounce passes felt a lot faster. On Monday someone had said "If we had Marcelo's chest passes with Brian's bounce passes, it would be perfect." Tonight, the same person said, "We're getting these times because Marcelo's passes are so quick. It's us on the line who aren't doing so well." That made me laugh a little bit, partly because it's not true, and partly because I thought it was funny that in the space of 4 days I had sway the person's mind.
We went through all the games and we did well in most of them. There were a couple of mistakes and we can improve our times for sure, but it wasn't awful. However, we also broke two records. I don't even remember the events. I think one was team basketball relay and the other was boy's balloon. So now we have momentum going into Saturday. I can't stand it! I'm excited, despite the fact that this is my last locals competition.

I definitely made the comment about putting your chest passes with Brian's bounce passes (or vice versa, I don't remember), but I'm definitely not the one who said that it was because of you that we got our times, although I absolutely agree with whoever said it!
It was Jonathan...
