Okay so I finally had the chance to sit down and write a blog. It is 2:38 in the morning at school starts at 8:10 so it should be a good day. Anyways.....
So I am now past the halfway point of my senior year and I finally understand the seniors of the years past that said the time would fly by. And it has. I am pondering on the fact that not only is my final year in high school almost over but so is my final season of high school wrestling. It feels like just yesterday I was looking for my headgear and wrestling shoes in my closet to have them ready for practice. However, I am not sad that my final wrestling season is almost over because I know I have been making the best of it. I am currently 19-5-0 with 10 out of my 19 victories won by pinning my opponent. Of course, I would like to have the undefeated streak but I unfortunately was not able to keep it since I lost my first match of the season! Since the season began I know I have been putting in work, blood, and sweat to make the best of my final season. My coach has really made an impact on me this year, pushing me to my limit and helping me get through those days of doubt. Our team is not too bad this year, I knew it was not going to be since last year, but I wish we still had those few guys that let up on the team earlier this season. It is not right to judge them for quitting, but if they would not have quit we probably would have more team wins and not just individual wins. We did, however, make a commitment at the beginning of the season to our team stating that we would stick it out to the end...
I'm not frowning though, I am happy with those who have stayed committed and have been working hard so that we can better ourselves in our wrestling career. Yeah, I still hear it from people that we are crazy for losing weight and starving ourselves and this and that...but you know, it really is not that crazy when you think about it...I mean think about it, you can google crazy and find things that really are out of this world type of crazy. I mean some of us wrestlers are a bit crazy, but it should not be anything new. Now that I am past the halfway point of the season I'd like to see how much more I can accomplish along side my comrades and I hope to pull through and achieve the goals that I have made for myself. There is just one thing I would like to let the people who are taking their time to read my blogs know, and that is to cherish every moment you have in life and try to not let any opportunities slip past you. This life was made for us to live it and succeed. So that is what we all will do. If the days get tough just know it is not the end, a new day will come and with it new beginnings. For now, this blog should do. My eyes are getting heavy and I hear my pillows calling. I'll keep my blog up-to-date now...because I know I always have something I need to blog about after almost every practice.
Peace.
