so this weekend we had a race, it was two day event. it was great, we had awesome weather, met some new people, and saw some other people that we knew from other teams.

the great thing about rowing is you kinda get to know other teams pretty well even if you dont know the actual individuals, you still kinda know them, make sense?

anyways, there's a tradition in rowing that the winners of the race gets the team shirts from the everyone else in the race. well, our team doesnt really participate in that cause we would spend a fortune in t-shirts. haha. but another thing people do is trade shirts with people. so my friend matt and i were walking around going to different teams trading shirts. well, i saw a group of people walking towards the virginia tech trailer and they had blue shirts on with orange V's. well, if you take notice, tech's colors are maroon and orange, and UVAs' colors are blue and orange. so ol'smart patrick was like "hey virginia tech, wanna trade shirts" and the guys were like, "we would except we're not virginia tech, we're university of virginia...hahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahaah"

ya, i felt stupid. and my friends laughed a lot too cause matt was in the process of telling me that they werent tech. and we wanted virginias shirts too cause they were cool. oh well. needless to say we didnt get either of their shirts. but their still cool guys. the coolest teams we met, were wakeforest, michigan, and south carolina. south carolina is definately the coolest of them though.

anyways, the races went well. we beat the teams we set out to beat, but didnt win any medals.

school is going good. i found out that i could possibly make all A's except for math, which i'll probably have to retake. but thats ok. i'll just understand it really well.

and how are ya'll?
