Sick Day Reflection

Don't you hate those days when you have a headache, some kind of cold,your sinuses are clogged up, any type of light bothers you, your limbs are sore, and you feel kinda sick to your stomach? That's me. Not exactly how I would spend my Tuesday, but whatever. I wish I didn't feel like this. Actually, I can't think of anyone who would WANT to feel like this. Ha.

But the time of resting does indeedy give me time to reflect on my sweet and legit weekend. For the most part. It was a roller coaster ride, starting with last Thursday and the Nebraska game.

It was a 6:30pm game... which meant I had to be there at 11:30am for the supervisor meeting. I started to freak out, because I procrastinated getting a ride to the game. I tried Jordan, but she was coming later than I could be there. I had a freak out moment. Right there in class. Before the group presentation I was going to give. Who had a car and would probably give me a ride? Jaron. I gave him a text, and he was able to give me a lift. I think he enjoyed going Down South and seeing where the players go in, and the coaches and such. I got out and waved goodbye to Jaron, and just as I walked in the door, they started the supervisor's meeting. I learned cool things there like the parachutes coming in with the football and stuff at the beginning of the game.

We chilled and got out on the lots and stuff. There were 3 important things to note here. 1) As we were about to saddle up to go out to our gates, none other than Coach Frank Martin appeared in front of us in sweats and a hoodie. "Who IS that guy?" I thought to myself. Haha. I figured it out and walked a few steps closer to him and said, "Welcome to K-State, sir!" He looked at me and said, "Thanks!" Ah, I jumped up and down with delight in the parking office of saying hi to the best basketball coach ever. :)
2) We were out on the lots and Jacob Pullen and all his basketball buddies including Victor Ojeleye drove through my gate several times. I felt special. Haha.
3) Coach Martin came through my gate after grabbing some lunch in his big, white, expensive SUV. He rolled down his window to chat again! There were 5 people at the gate, and only 2 of us knew who he was. The two guys were spacin' out, and the other girl didn't care that much. Me and the another girl held a conversation for about a minute with him. He asked why there was so much red in the stadium even though Coach Bill Snyder said to keep the red out. Suggestions were posed, but I said to the coach that we should get ninjas to carry out all the people wearing red. He smiled and offered a more practical solution: that the Cats win the game!
Unfortunately, Coach... kinda looked off and was like "yea" and kept talking about the ugly red. O well!
