The Diary of a "Happy" Girl

Entry No. 64

I played hockey again today. Two of my closest friends came and watched me. They claimed they weren't bored, but I've been told that hockey's a boring game to watch...

But it was good, even though we lost. That doesn't matter to me though.

What matters to me is the fact that I had two extremely important people there to support me, who made me laugh during half-time, even though I was in pain, who met me half-way across the field at the end of the game to congratulate me on my work and to tell me they were hopefully going to watch me again next week.

Before, I liked hockey: it was a way to get away from the house, be social, soak up vitamin D, a great way to loose more weight, and a fantastic way to manage my built-up anger.

But now?

Now it's all of those things, plus another way to spend time with people I truly care about, no matter how whacky they are.

I wish hockey wouldn't end. I wish I could just play forever...

But, every part of my body would protest if I even tried to play for longer than I already do.

Maybe I'll be able to reach my weight and fitness goals sooner if I practised more...
