aardogs: (PanicGreen)
I had so much fun this week, but certainly not as much fun as I could have had. One thing I missed out on was a lot of the companionship with others because I was only in steeplechase and on top of that I didn't know a single person in my group, (which for three of my four runs was in the darkness and solitude of the west hall) and I'm not the best at being outgoing and making friends. So most of the time I was alone, which is fine but definitely not as much fun. I'm a person that tends to sink into the background in any group of people anyway. If people don't talk to me I don't talk.


Anyway it was amazing and I honestly can't believe how well we did, especially just being in the one event. I have so much to say about it that I'm sure will come spilling out throughout the rest of the week. Right now however, I feel a kind of post-event depression setting in, especially in the fact that I have to go back to school tomorrow.

I think, or hope, that that is a pretty common thing. I felt the same way after ClickerExpo back in March.

This is the biggest thing I've ever done, I worked so hard to get there, put in so much effort, so much anticipation, and now it's over. I just feel a little like, what now? Obviously there is so much further for us to go, and I made sure to set goals past going to Nationals so I wouldn't feel quite so empty, but still it's hard for me. I'm sure that the first big event is always the hardest.

Anyway, I am looking forward to our break from agility starting next month and some time to renew and rethink things. Hopefully I'll get back out there with a new sense of vigor and purpose.
