It is sooo nice outside today! Like, shorts and t-shirt weather (though I'm in capris). And even better, I was outside a lot to enjoy it! The UWO trip was nice. After the tour (of some very old, very cool buildings) we ate lunch and then me and Terra wandered around outside for like over an hour. It was great, seeing university life and so many people were out studying, enjoying the sunny hotness of today. I also discovered that UWO would be great for me...except that it's too close to home. I want to go some place else, at least an hour's drive away like Waterloo or Guelph. I'm still hoping for that scholarship into Oxford. I found out the other night actually that my Civics teacher had a friend from high school who got the Rhodes Scholarship. I've been meaning to talk to her about it, see if she knows anything. Back to the UWO trip, I was so proud of myself! I got us through most of the campus without getting completely lost. Usually I'm the type of person who will only go the ways I know already but not today! As it was, I recognized things from previous trips and our tour to help guide me but it was all unintentional help. I hope I got a tan started, at least somewhat.

I've got another basketball practice tonight, which will mean I practice for about an hour and a half Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday from here on until the last weekend in April, when we have provincials. And good news: my coach e-mailed us all and said that we were ranked 15 out of 92 teams in Ontario! Which, if we were to remain there, would put us in Division 1, our goal. It's strange though because it seems like we've lost just as many games as we've won. However, I'm glad they make the rules and not me. Division 1!!!

I now plan to go sit outside until my dinner's ready and either work on my math homework/study for my unit test tomorrow, or look through my Western book. Or maybe read. Oh, the possibilities!
