In which I make a fool of myself. More than usual.

I, being the slightly outspoken person I am, has moments every now and then where I feel the need to stick my foot in my mouth.

Like this morning on the bus, I was discussing how uninteresting I find football to watch, mostly for the reason that most of the time spent watching is waiting for the field to be set up for the next 5 second run (at least, that's what I've come to understand though the one football game I watched). I went on to say that rugby is more interesting, mostly because it consists of people stepping on each other in cleats.

But I meant that description of rugby extremely loosely. 

Erica flipped around on her seat and started freaking out, demanding to know why I had insulted rugby. I responded, slightly scared, that I hadn't really, that I actually enjoy it. *insert foot into mouth*. The girl I didn't recognize who was sitting beside her gave me a strange look. 

Fast forward half an hour to the assembly first period. They began calling the girls rugby team up onto the stage, one of the first people being Erica. Then they called up the girls rugby team from a school in Ontario who are on an exchange thing, including the girl who was sitting beside Erica on the bus.

Well aren't I a welcoming douche.

What I've learned from this event:
1) I tend to do things in the worst place at the worst time.
2) Don't insult activities that the people involved scare you. 
3) I just shouldn't talk about sports in public places. 

I took a bus to the mall yesterday evening because I was immensely bored and had no homework. I unintentionally hung out with Kayleigh for two hours, who was wandering aimlessly in the mall because she went to visit someone who wasn't home and she had taken the last bus into town. We wandered aimlessly together, mocked the clothes in Sears, tried on hats in the weird accessory stores and played the PS3 Lego Star Wars demo in Toys R Us for around half an hour. It was a good time.

I take my learner's permit again tomorrow. I'm screwed!
Love,
