hw?

ok so I'm kind of confused as to when the blog homework starts and how I find my group (especially not knowing first names) so I'm going to focus on my own blog for right now in hopes that the homework will be completed in the proces.
Since we can write about anything I feel I should talk about the most recent thing on my mind, which is today. Today was my first English class, it was rather exciting especially in light of the ball that was thrown around the room. I played softball all through out high school so I'm rather fond of throwing. As a tangent, my softball team was quite good we won the district championship all 3 years I was apart of the team, finishing my senior year with regional championships and making it to state semi-finals. What makes this even more impressive is that the school is currently 5 years old, my class built the program from the bottom.
But, back to today, it is time trials for the ski team at tech, which I am currently on. I love skiing but I'm rather nervous about the time trial due to the fact that the conditions as of Monday night were absolutely terrible. I'm a pretty confident skier, but with the conditions I faced Monday, that confidence went out the window especially since I wiped out while skiing. Hopefully the conditions will be better and I will be able to recover my confidence by tonight, but due to the warm weather that has not yet left us, I am not so sure that the conditions will get better. It might even rain tonight, which may or may not improve the existing conditions.
Lastly, today is my birthday, and I turned 19. Nothing special since its in between 18 and 21, two big birthdays. Fortunately though, my parents bought me a cookie cake for my birthday, which makes me especially happy because cookie cakes are finominal.
