well softball season is officially over. it lasted all of two weeks. they do sports around here a little differently: not so competitive, not specialized, more just for fun. with that being said, the fans here for their rugby and cricket teams are INTENSE to say the least. but anyways, the john's softball team was not very good. we finished 4th......out of 5 teams. so unfortunately i wasn't able to help them out a whole lot, but it was a lot of fun and i got back into shape for softball and i met a lot of new, interesting people. i played first base, which was definitely different for me. but they needed someone who could actually catch the ball! i was also the back up pitcher, but thank god i didn't ever have to go in. the boys that come to watch the games heckel the other team to no end, and they tend to target the pitcher! ah! so all in all it was a lot of fun. for spring break i'll be going up to the gold coast and playing softball there for the week. so i'll get a little more time to practice. that should be a lot of fun. last year sydney uni won for softball so we're going for the gold for the second year in a row. i'm playing in what is known as the uni games. all the universities in australia come together and each other their sports competes. it should be a ton of fun!
