Keeping in touch with a few texts, an email update (below, Sept20) and fun photos ...
Adjusting to life back in Oregon has been pretty easy, it was really nice not having to set up the room again and just being able to come back to the apartment right as we left it.Haley met her mom and made it home, but hasn't been able to get back up to Oregon City since then as she's been pretty busy with working and getting ready to move herself to her house in Corvallis. I've still gone down to Lebanon a couple times, one time we went and watched her brother's football game, he's the head football coach at a high school called Scio. I'm heading back down to her house later today because we made little "boo" baskets for each other filled with little gifts. But I'll have to head back home early tomorrow morning because we have a workout with Coach Scott at 11:00, he's bringing up another group with lots of class of 26 kids and some returned missionaries.Basketball's been going well, practices look a little different with Stamme running them. We have been going pretty hard everyday, and we have some new faces. Starting with the returners, there's Connor, Sam, Lincoln, Reggie, Jkari, Kobe, and Brooklynd. So no Nick, JB, or Miles. The new guys' names are, Jayden, Tremayne, Luke, Shea, Brody, Bailey, Jace, Warren, and Omar. Jayden and Tremayne are both from Vegas, they came and visited last spring. Luke is from Utah, came up with Coach Scott in the spring, although I never played against him in high school or anything. Shea and Brody are from local schools, Brody actually being from the same high school as Connor and redshirted last year at Portland CC. I'm thinking Jace, Bailey, Omar, and Warren are probably going to be redshirts this year. But I am liking how the team looks, Jayden and Tremayne are both really good and Tre especially since he is a good big man, about 6'6 and is actually pretty good in the post. Right now I would think the starting lineup would probably look like me, Jayden, Connor, Luke or Lincoln, then Tremayne at the center.We went to Coach Weg's celebration of life last Saturday just at the college. There were lots of former players there so it was fun to see everyone. Gray even flew in from South Dakota. Vitaliy, Mason, Nick, JB, Miles all came as well. A bunch of us went and got tacos after, although I forgot to grab a picture.Still a little over a week out from school starting, not looking forward to that. My only in-person class this term is going to be a lab on Thursday nights, similar to what I had last spring. That will be a fun class though since a bunch of us all got it together. I'm pretty sure it's me, Connor, Brody, Lincoln, Sam, and Brooklynd.General Accounting (3 Credits)Principles of Microeconomics (4 credits)Intro to Environmental Science + Lab (4 credits)Elementary Statistics (4 credits)It's been nice having extra time to get shots up outside of practice these few weeks.I did apply to a few places to work but haven't heard back quite yet.I had been trying to eat healthier this year, even counting all my calories and macros using this app that Steven showed me. I have kind of given up on the app already as it is kind of a hassle to always be inputting everything, but I am still making sure I'm eating better than I was last year. Not using my food stamps to just fill up my snack shelf again haha. Been eating lots of ground beef, but trying to make tastier meals with it. I've been commonly doing taco bowls and burger bowls. Usually at the beginning of the week I've been cooking up a batch of either chicken alfredo or stroganoff. I use a whole box of protein pasta when making them so they have a bit more protein in it. Although I couldn't find any protein egg noodles, so I just used rotini instead.That's about all I have for now. I'll try and take some more selfies to send back haha. I love you!
The basketball schedule is out ...
I'm hoping I make it out to see some games this year ...
