rowing....

so i decided i wanted to do something new this year- last semester i had way too much time on my hands and i got bored a lot... i was thinking about cap and bells, our school theater society, when i saw a poster for rowing.... which sounded cool, so i am going out for rowing- which is a lot harder to do properly than it looks... i should feel the erg in my legs, but i feel it in my back... i should be steady on the machine but i am constantly in danger of throwing myself off the end... you'd think rafting and kayaking would prepare me more for this, but its way hard... tomorrow i get on the water for the first time and hopefully i will be able to coordinate the whole thing better... but its way fun! even if i am the oldest novice...
