It's been a while since i last made a journal entry, but here's what i did this weekend.

Friday:

We finally had our first rugby game of the year, although it was only an exhibition. We lost 24-7, missing 4 of our starters, which meant playing our rookies who didn't know all of the rules. Me and my friend ended up only playing 20 minutes because of a grumpy old teacher who reported us for acting up in her last period joke-of-a-class. Anyone who played Halo with me on Thursday night, may have noticed that i was quiet and not really myself, well, that was the reason. I was told i couldn't play. So i had to watch my team get pounded on by THE biggest group of guys i've ever seen on a rugby field. They had at least 8-9 people who were at least 6'3 and 240lbs. They made me (6'2, 215lbs) look small. However, they weren't that talented, fat slow people really, and 2 of there scores were because of rookie mistakes. I didn't really get a good hit on anyone but i got a good carry with ball for a few yards that took about 3 of them to take me down. Which resulted in my neck gets clawed by one of them and a few boots to the head while i was down. I also play on the school baseball team, which i heard our first game in on Friday the 29th.

Friday night my friend came over and we tried some Unreal Championship 2 multiplayer. It actually took us a while to figure out how to play with 2 players, as embarassing as that sounds. We had some great fun with the game and i'm glad i made the purchase. UC2 is my first Unreal game and i'm really enjoying it. The multiplayer is always fun and the single player is surprisingly great. I really hope the online multiplayer will kick off and become popular. I'm still looking for some people to play with over Xbox Live.

Saturday

Nothing exciting here. I woke up at 1:30pm when my friend called and told me to come over. So we just screwed around at his house for a while and i was back home in a few hours. My night was pretty boring. All i did was play MVP Baseball 2005, Unreal Championship 2 and Halo 2. However, i did receive some good news. My bro bought tickets to the Jays/Orioles game the next day.

Sunday

As soon as i woke up, we left for Toronto to see the Blue Jays vs. the Orioles (Halladay vs. Ponson). This was my first baseball game since i went to see the Indians/Blue Jays back in July 2000. This was a different team and a different looking stadium. Although, the result was the same. The Jays lost their 5th straight game as Halladay got pounded on and the O's offense never quit, while Ponson had a no-hitter going into the 6th. At least the Jays scored a run. Sammy Sosa got booed all game, along with fans chanting "CORKED BAT" everytime he was up. He shut us up with 2 HR's.

I bought a Blue Jays black authentic hat while i was there. I also got one of those big pretzels they sell at the stadium and it was very good. It tasted sweet and full of salt. I'm sure if i had 2 i would have had a heart attack And theres nothing like Ballpark peanuts.

And i end the night with finishing my homework.

Overall, i had a fun-filled weekend. Highlight was definately the baseball game, which i had a great time at, but would have been way better if the Jays won.
