yes! its friday!

Hey everyone! I am so pumped!! I just got back from an increadibly fun basketball game! Freestate was playing LHS. Now for those of you who are not lucky enough to live in lawrence kansas i'll fill you in. Lawrence has a total of two high schools. Lawrence high was the original high school thats been here for years. Their big thing is "tradition", a.k.a their school is old. Freestate is a new school that is no more than 10 years old and has all kinds of new stuff. The kids from the "west and north side" go to freestate. Recently both schools got new football fields but someone made an annonymous donation to free state giving us a concession stand, bathrooms, and a better field in general. In december, Free State's basketball team beat LHS's at freestate. Our basketball statium also happens to have a bigger student section then theres.

So anyways the basketball teams play each team twice and today was the second time for us to play LHS. At first I was iffy about going but Olivia convinced me and offered me a ride (thanks). So she picked me up around 4:45 and we headed out getting good seats. The girls game was pretty decent. LHS did a "whiteout". This means that they all wore white and when they do a white out they really do it. It was like a sea of white. We were supposed to be doing a blackout but the shirts they were selling for that were $12 and not enough people got it so we just wore school colors. We won the first game and by then the stands were packed full. A ton more people showed up for the boys game because thats more exciting but they had no where to sit. Guess who was sitting two rows down and to the right from me? Plan. :) (looking cute in his red hat)

Right before the boys started playing, LHS gets up and starts playing "Kids of america". Oh no they didn't. I'll give you the history of this too. Recently I blogged about a video that we made backwards. Well LHS had made a video before that and it was frontwards and just sucked. The song that they lip synched to was Kids of America. We posted our video on wensday and then the night of they hacked our screen and afte rthe first few seconds they put stuff about how great lhs was. Then someone hacked theirs and we got payback. So everyone was on edge about this video thing because it was yet another thing we were competing about.

So they play kids of america and are all singing along and we are just in shock at how low they've gotten. But then it gets worse. They pull up a banner that says, " Your just jealous, $ can't buy tradition". Uggggh. That sucked. But thank goodness someone got smart and all of freestate turned around like their too ugly to even watch or pay attention too. we couldn't really get back at them with that. The best payback was to win and we totally did. We beat them by over 10 points. LHS also has a dirty mouth, when theres a bad call or someone on their team does bad we just go boo. But they just say "bull shi*, bull shi*" over and over and over again. That is their favortie thing to say. The thing we both say that I think is awful is "You let the whole team down, you let the whole team down", when someone misses a free throw. It was a great game though and we won once again. As my friend put it, who owns this town? FREE STATE!

song of the day: Love in this club - usher

quote of the day: Your just jealous, $ can't buy tradition (the money thing was hinting at the fact that people that are better off go to F.S.)
