The Downside to Competition


Any kid can tell you.  The worst part of competition is loosing. I don't think anyone's really a "good" loser.  The more competitive among us (read:me) are sore losers.  We use losses to motivate ourselves.  "Better work harder.  Remember what happened last time?"  But I've learned how to remain polite and courteous and recognize that my competitors have worked hard to get where they are.  When my team loses, it's something I can face.  This time, I'm a little hurt.

I'm keeping it short and sweet.  I thought I was coxing in Head of the Charles this weekend. It's in 1 and a half days.  I just found out I'm not.  I'm sure the coaches have their reasons.  I have no idea what they are.  I'm disappointed. 

The worst part of it all is that I'm sure I could do a really, really good job racing.  
Oh well.  
There's always next year...

ugh, today is just gonna be one of those days when I need Ben and Jerry's...
