Wanna Go Clubbing?

School has definitely come down to a rhythm. In fact, it's gotten a little boring. Everyone seems to be having a busy semester, so it's been hard to link up with friends. And now that I'm pretty much over my sickness, I'm feeling fat, lazy, and inactive. I was planning for this semester to be so much more... something.

To rectify this problem, I've decided to join a school club! Now I don't know if I even can, but I'd like to get into some sort of athletic thing. Something where I could meet new people, burn off energy, and level off some of my near limitless ADD-interest. The downside to joining anything athletic is obvious: I'm not very athletic. In fact I tend to range somewhere between mediocre and flat out BAD at most sports (nix that, most things). I went on the A&M interwebs to try to find a sport club that I might be able to get into. Running is something I really enjoy, but really I'd like something a little bit more full body. Judo was something I tried a little bit of before, but I tried getting into it in two different semesters and both times I fell out of it; I'm just not a fighter. The only things that have caught my eye is the Triathlon Club and the Water Polo Club.

The more I think about it, the more I like the idea of getting back into water polo. I kind of miss that, even if I was terrible, and A&M's team probably out classes me. I could probably be happy trying Triathlon Club too though. The thing I'm worried about, water polo has already done tryouts and started practices; I haven't even swam in over a month... and before that one time it was well over 4 or 5 months! I know I'm crazy out of shape, I don't even think I could keep up at one practice as it stands and people sitting out of practices are always bad for the team as a whole. I can think of tons of advantages for me if I got on the team, I just can't think of too many they would have for having me on. <8|:o)
