Tomorrow, many NFL teams will play their first game of the regular season, with my favourite, the San Diego Chargers, playing on Monday. I am very excited for the season to begin.
What may surprise you is, that at this point last year, I couldn't care less. I'm serious. Last year at this point, I didn't like football. How did I get hooked on football. Well, it was when in Grade 8, my teacher told us that we'd do an NFL scrapbook on a team that we draw out of a hat. So we drew, and I picked up the slip of paper that said the San Diego Chargers. I still have that slip of paper in my Grade 8 agenda. After a few weeks of the season, I started to get hooked on football. In fact, that project easily changed my life forever. I can still remember every score, every game, everything about San Diego in 2005.
And this year, I have never been more excited for any start for a sport. Yes, I am excited for the hockey season, but the regular season is very boring, and only gets good when the season ends and the playoffs begin. In my NFL union, we posted our week 1 predictions, and here are mine (except Steelers vs Dolphins, my predictions are in bold)
Atlanta vs Carolina, Baltimore vs Tampa Bay, Buffalo vs New England, Cincinnati vs Kansas City, Denver vs St. Louis, New Orleans vs Cleveland, N.Y. Jets vs Tennessee, Philadelphia vs Houston, Seattle vs Detroit, Chicago vs Green Bay, Dallas vs Jacksonville, San Francisco vs Arizona, Indianapolis vs NY Giants (the Manning Bowl), Minnesota vs Washington, San Diego vs Oakland
Also, my first week (not complete) of high school is now done. I know I've been chirping about it a lot, but I really am enjoying it. Having your own locker is cool, so long as you are outside of the locker. I found out that I do fit in the locker. No, I didn't get locked in. One of my friends wanted to see if I fit in it, so I stepped in and I did and he found that awesome (??????). And what sucked on Friday, is that I left my lunch money at home, and I didn't have a lunch :(. But another friend gave me some food, so I thank her a lot! Also, French class is just crazy. There is so much idiots in the class, and a girl from my school sits beside me :) (the girl who gave me a lunch)! Sadly, the dude who talks the most sits behind me, so hell do we get annoyed by him. Everyone in my class also thinks he's gay and when we were working, hell did we annoy him. One girl even asked him directly if he was, and I said, "Katelyn, we already know the answer is yes!".
Also, I folded out of my Fantasy Football League because of the time, and went into another one, which is at a better time and date.
