Souper Catch-Up, Part Two: Last Wednesday to Yesterday

Since this iz a Souper Catch-Up, I will do the Daily Report separately, Kay? This iz Part Two, look down at the last post for Part One, cuz that mite be helpful!!!

So Last Wednesday wuz *HORRIBLE*!!! It all started at around 4:30-ish...My coach--John--came to pick me up to take me to my indoor soccer practice. Well, it wuz really this "Speed and Agility" training thing, like sprints and plyometrics, but whatever. So he also had to pick up, like, 4 other girls on my team, so we were running *really* late. And Sports U--the place where we were training--was doing renovations on their entrance, so we had to go thru this temporary entrance, which wuzn't very well-lit. And we had to run in cuz we were so late. So we're all running in--JLo, Keppel, Winger, Sammy, and I--and my foot hits the curb, and I think I tripped or something, and I think I twisted my ankle. But then, I didn't think that, so I went thru the whole practice, but the pain didn't stop. So I'm sitting in John--excuse me, *Coach* John's car, for about 20 minutes, and my muscles got all cold, so it hurt a lot as I limped into the house. My loving father, on his way out to ShopRite, tells me to go shower, as if *that's* gonna make it better. "At least you won't smell so bad," he says. So I go shower and he goes to ShopRite, and it feels worse when I come out. I mean, I couldn't even limp. I wuz *hopping* around the house on one foot!!!
On Thursday, I wuz still hopping, so I stayed home from skool. Which I wuz ackshully kinda sad abowt cuz it wuz the first day uv the 2nd Marking Period, so I missed out on learning the class rules or wutever for TV Studio (Mrs. Matuzweski), Study Hall (Ms. Paolella--yes, there are rules for that, too!!!), and Dance (Ms. Murphy). So I basically sat home, watching iCarly, and Clueless, and Moesha. GAWD, it wuz *horibble*. However, by the end of the day, I could kinda limp, so my dad decided to CANCEL MY DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT.
My mom, who is an EMT, decided it wuz sprained, and gave me a brace that she had used when she had a stress fracture, so it wuz off to school for me on Friday. I wuz *the* center of attention, lil' ol' me with my sprained ankle cuz I tripped over a curb. I also got to sit out Dance while the rest of the class got to learn the Boot Scootin' Boogie. Ms. Murphy wuz kinda pissed, since I didn't have a medical note and I didn't know when I would get the brace off, but wutever.
On Saturday, I went to the doctor's to finally find out wut wuz *really* wrong and wut I should do and if I needed a medical note for Ms. Murphy. It wuz, actually, sprained, and he told me to keep the brace on until Monday. I also went to Paterson (or Parsippany, or Paramus?) for Arabic food. I ordered Shawarma, which is like the Arabic version of a burrito. My dad grew up in Saudi Arabia, so he taught me the Wonders of Shawarma. It is really good.
On Sunday, I went to my team's last soccer game to cheer them on in the almost-freezing cold. I brought my teammate, Claire, who had sprained her knee. So we were all standing on the sidelines, cheering, and talking to whoever wuz subbed out at the time. My socka chicka Emily made theze ahmayzing chocolate cupcakes with vanilla frosting and green sprinkles. On top of them, she put a frosted OREO and wrote "M" (for Montville) in icing. There is a difference between icing and frosting, people!! Her ahmayzing mom also brought hot cocoa for the whole team. Thank you, Emily's Mom!!!
Yesterday wuz Monday, and the last day that I had to wear my brace. Whoop-dee-doodle!!! But that's all that wuz special about Monday.
