Farwell Sleep! Hello weak knees!
This morning I got up at 6am walked 25minutes in the dark to the boathouse and rowed. Yup I rowed in Cambridge. I can check that off my list.
On the walk back to my room at 9am I saw some people I knew. The very people that I had just told last week that; "I was not going to row this term. The brain-washing was not going to work on me...yup I wasn’t going to cave into the pressure." Don’t get me wrong rowing is great and something I used to love…I am just tired and wasn’t planning on doing it my first term also the fact that I hadn’t rowed in 4years was a bit unnerving.
But this morning I found myself getting into a boat with strangers and sitting there in a daze thinking how I ended up here. Then I heard my name and I looked up to see someone in the boathouse waving and smiling to see me in the boat and I remembered what lead to this moment….(what quite frankly lead me to start rowing in the first place 10years ago)….a man…damn you hormonal attraction!
