regionals:


"1, 2, 3, GO WOODFORD!" Today our archery team shot at regionals and earned 2nd place, which means we're moving on to state. i shot my highest score this season which earned me the 4th place female medal. i was so excited because i've never been recognized for my score.  another girl on our team earned second place and was only two or three point higher than me and first place was around 10. with a lot of practice i think i can do better when we go to state and i'm excited to see what happens. last weekend we had pre-regionals and our coach told us if we shot over three thousand he would shave a target onto his head and we did.


i love archery, there's something unique about it and being able to shoot and try to do better each time you shoot. it's challenging. when i first started, i couldn't even hit the target and now i've earned a medal. it just goes to show you what going to practice and working hard can do. but it's not all about being a competition, sometimes there's lots of downtime and you get to be with your friends. i think everyone should have something that they're enthusiastic about, because then you'll have something to work towards, something to strive to be good at, something you're proud of.

snow coffin:

first off, i'm scared of dead thing. anything having to do with funerals, coffins, etc, but i'm not scared of dying because it's inevitable, so i'm enjoying each breath i have now while i can. anyways, that's not my point. today we had yet another snow day (i love the snow, but i'm ready for it to go away) and i went over to my best friend's house, who knows that i don't like dead stuff, and we went outside. i decided to lay down in the snow to make a snow angel, which i quickly learned was a bad idea. her and her sisters began to cover me in snow kind of like you would bury someone in the sand, just with snow. so i just figured that i would let them, because they were going to do it whether i wanted them to or not. so then when they said i could get out of the snow pile, kayla shouts "hey megan it looks like you're in a coffin!" which made me jump out of the snow. just so you can experience this, i'll post the video. haha, enjoy. :)

valentine's day:

is one of those holiday's that makes single people feel like crap. but today i realized that it doesn't matter if you're single or not. you don't need a boyfriend to celebrate valentines day. celebrating with your friends is just as good, if not better. you don't have to worry about your friends breaking up with you or breaking your heart, they're always there. so anyways, short and sweet, happy valentine's day, no matter who you're with.
