the stars and the strings

so, lets go in order of events here.
last night i was informed by a friend's blog that there would be a meteor shower...pretty sweet stuff! so, from like 9:15 till 10:45 ish i just sat out in my backyard, talking to cristina and looking at the sky. weird to think we were looking at the same sky, but so many miles away. well, i didn't see a whole lot of meteors, about four i think, but it was still awesome! i haven't just laid down and looked up at the stars in a long time. the shooting stars i did see were pretty stinkin cool! i saw more last night than i have in my whole life! crazy cool! i didn't really expect to see anything here in CA with all the light pollution, so the first one i did see i started jumping up and down with joy! :) God is awesome!

on to the strings. so, this incredibly awesome day started out with tennis! what else? so i have this habit of playing with my strings whenever i'm not hitting (not in the middle of a point, just when i'm holding my racquet). as i was straighting them out i notice a spot where it was getting frayed on one of the strings. yes! i'm on the verge of breaking my first sting! how sweet! okay, this may not be a big deal to some, but i've never had the privilege of breaking one before...i always seem to get my racquet re-stung before. well, throughout the next two hours it progressively got thinner and thinner. but, today was not the day...definitely by the end of this week though it should have broken. :)

then what better way to finish off the day than by going to golden spoon! and i even got to ride my bike there, which was even more exciting! :)

now come the not so good part of the day...homework. i should go get some done.

but, overall i'm a pretty happy person! :)
