In class we were playing badminton. We played singles for about half the class (and I sucked today, I was just slow), and then we played doubles. My partner was Dylan. It was fun because it was Dustin and Danya playing against me and Dylan. It was a very close game (like 22-20 or something like that).

For like 10-15 minutes I was playing badminton. For the first bit I was playing we Shantelle against Kelly-Joe and Alexis. We won, lol we're awesome. Then Shantelle was playing with Amber, and I was partners with Dustin. We were the undefeated champions. I must be improving b/c a couple times I hit the birdie, Dustin was like, "Where did that come from" and he was surprised on some of my great hits.
When lunch break was over, I went and found Michelle and we played against each other, full court. So we were runing quite a bit all over the place lol. I'm getting better on my serves too. I'm not popping them up like I use to, and I'm getting better at placing it (cuz I had Michelle running back and forth some time). O, and I successfully did drop shots 2!!! And b4 I cudnt rly do those :)

In gym class, I did a total of 15 minutes running. I ran for 5 minutes straight, then I did some sit-ups and stretching, then we ran for another 5 minutes (but I think I may have ran for about 3 minutes the 2econd time), followwed by some more sit-ups and more stretching, and then for the last 15 minutes, i ran for about half the time, and i walked for the rest. DUring the 2nd time runing, my calves starting aching a bit, my feet were a bit sore afterwards, and I started getting cramp bymy right ribs. But at least this time I didn't get a cramp in my left collor bone area like usual.
After this warm up, we played cricket. It's been a long time since we played this game, and I was a little light headed from runing (kind of dazed), so i had a heard time catching the ball and i low reaction time.

Ok i was working out with Michelle again today, but we spent most of the time talking lol. I did 3 sets of 20 lunges, 3 sets of 20 crunches, and 3 sets of 20 arm push ups (because I can't really do real push-ups lol). Then there was a class in the gym, so we worked out in the weightroom, where I was less progressive then usual. I did one arm exercise (3 sets of 20 with 20lbs weight), 2 leg exercises (3 sets of 20, but they were done with a diff amount of weight, and then I only did 2 or 3 sets of 10 upper body raises
