(also titled "another journal marlee writes and no one comments because lol it's pm gibberish")

visuals fun!

first race, this morning in the juicebox (YES THAT BOAT IS CALLED THE JUICEBOX, OKAY?!)
ahhh rowing. 2530_55153609209_805874209_1339121_3813873_n
lightie four! (varsity women's lightweight four). hannah's little head (orange hat), then rose in bow seat, blazer in two, meredith (white hat nearer to the left) in three andddd marlee. stroking. ohhh fun.

second race, in the cowboy (yes. it's the cowboy. the y has fallen off so it's the cowbo atm.)
ahhh rowing. 2530_55198194209_805874209_1340275_7779360_n
eight people is too long to list, but i'm stroking there too.


so.
to start.

things i love about regattas (races):
1 - winning. which we did not do today
2 - the sudden feeling of spring. of belonging.
3 - UNI(SUIT)S! green and orange in general.
4 - complements and feedback. that the two boats i was in were the only two boats my coach was really happy with.
5 - stroking, in a strange way. having my boats addressed as "marlee's boats."
6 - "hey guys? let's fucking take this all the way."
"all the way where...?"
"to fucking nationals."
7 - giving our coaches juice boxes.
8 - shirts. today's were yellow and said "make it a money shot" on the back.
9 - the fooooood. pasta, cookies and bread. nomnomnom.
10 - you might not get it, but there is something i fucking LOVE about the fact that since three PM yesterday, i have been living crew. i go through stretches where all that i am is crew. and as terrible as that sounds, i love it.

things i do not like about regattas:
1- losing. which i didn't do. but i know plenty of people who did.
2 - the responsibility of being a stroke. set the pace, the rhythm - it's daunting.
3 - the point in the race when it becomes obvious. "FUCK THIS I AM FUCKING QUITTING"
4 - the aftermath. i've got the chills, i can't move. my throat is raw, i can't swallow. i started crying at dinner because my blood sugar was stuck in a well somewhere.
5 - now, the responsibility of doing well every fucking day. for the rest of the fucking season.
6 - take it to nationals? that's an extra month of rowing.
7 - i am not of weight right now. he has no reason to let me have a lightweight seat. i don't know if i'm going to be able to keep it or not.

it's nine thirty. all i want to do is sleep now.

Whenever you talk about rowing--or anybody does, for that matter-- I think about when I used to kayak. We had to share a lake with the rowers.
A friend of mine, also a kayaker, had been out paddling and some rowers rowed by and one girl's paddle slapped my friend across the face.

So these crazy rowers paddled a girl's face and just kept going, without saying ANYTHING. LOL@CHUUU LOL@CHUUU
It's two in the morning and I still laugh at this story.

oh dear.
