Thats generally my answer when people ask me how things are. I'm busy. I work. I go to school. I typically don't get out. But its ok. Theres a purpose.
Last Friday I assisted in the "coverage" of a track and field meet at UWM. As much as I enjoy watching specific events, I can't say it was the most exciting time. Fortunately no one got hurt, and even though thats when I actually get to do something, no Athletic Trainer hopes that an athlete gets injured. But coverage was long. I was at UWM at 8am for classes, reported to the Athletic Training room at 1:30 and left finally at 10:15. It made a long day. I did enjoy myself though. Talking with the athletes and seeing them in action.
It was a busy weekend in addition to that. I worked from 8am-3pm on Saturday at Milwaukee Ballet. I got a lot of homework done so that was super good. After I was finished with work my sister and I made our way to O'hare International Airport. We had to catch a flight to Atlanta, GA.
My younger sister, who is a senior in high school, is currently pursuing a professional job as a Ballet Dancer. She had an audition in Atlanta on Sunday and I volunteered to go with her. We got to Atlanta about 11pm rented a car and drove about an hour to our cousins house to spend the night. She had her audition on Sunday morning which went well for her. Then we went right back to the airport, got there around 2pm. All flights to Chicago were of course oversold. Stacey and I enjoyed our time waiting in the gate area and walking around the airport and we finally got on a flight at 630pm. Made it back to Milwaukee about 10.
It was a good, successful trip and I'm super proud of my sister for going to the audition and performing as she did. I'm excited for her to continue with her auditions and pursuit of a professional job in ballet!
