This is gonna be a fairly short post, just because I didn't travel anywhere last weekend and didn't really do anything especially interesting. One thing that was pretty sweet however was watching the Super Bowl last night at the bar. Now I'm a football fan, but I don't usually get too excited about a game not involving da bears, even if it is the Super Bowl. However, when the national anthem played and the game got started, I got a bit of a chill up my spine; not in an uber-patriotic way, but more in a "this feels like home" sort of way. Or maybe I just had a little too much to drink. Either way it was a lot of fun and a great game (I was rooting for the Colts, sadface). It was also sweet that we were watching it with Brits, especially since once they got the hang of the game, they really got into it.
One other point of interest, I will be playing for the Queen Mary ultimate frisbee team, which is going to be fairly sweet I think. I mean, I can throw the disc around moderately well and there were some epic matches in high school, but it'll be interesting to see how I do in a more competitive environment (especially with my well-known avoidance of physical activity). Apparently the team isn't especially good though, so there shouldn't be too much pressure. It will be a good opportunity to travel around the UK for tournaments and meet some more people though. We'll be going to some small town called Chichester next weekend for a tournament, which should be a great time. The following weekend should be supremely awesome as well, as I'll be headed to Portugal for a week of fun in the sun (its actually only a little warmer than here, but at least its not cloudy and raining all the time), so look for a nice long post on that stuff coming up. Mmm, good couple weeks coming up, I'm excited. Peace.
