Little Goodbyes
This past Tuesday, I ended my Intramural Athletics Career. Sadly, our guys team showed up with six guys to play 7-on-7 football. We lost in double overtime. So, even though we lost, it was cool that we even took the game that far. The girls team, whose offense I coached, lost just a couple hours later. But the cool thing about it was that they played one of the two best teams in teh league even until the last 2 minutes of the game. How exciting! We had people watching our game from the corner of their eyes, on other fields, rooting for us to pull off the huge upset. So my offense executed to perfection, and that was that. My Intramural career was over. Just like (*snap*) that!
This entire semester has been full of nights just like Tuesday night was. Not the losses, so much... Just the times where I catch myself saying, "That's the last time that's going to happen!" Sure, it's sad and odd. But at the same time, it's exciting and nerve-racking.
So with my days numbered as a student at Murray State University, and as a resident of Hester College, this is my last hoorah, as they say. I currently have no clue what is next: I'll figure that out soon enough! I just felt like I should recognize the feelings that Goodbye's have brought me this semester. By acknowledging the fear and the small amount of sadness in each "Goodbye!" I have resorted to my pretty hefty bank of excitement that I have stored up for the last few years.
Every day the scenery of my life is changing. But I CHOOSE to welcome it. I am destined for greatness. Are you with me??
LET'S DO THIS THING!!

Hopefully I'll be back to Murray so that I can help you add some more "last times" and "goodbyes" to your list...
