I got my big score back yesterday! Suffice to say that I'm grateful for having made it over a certain number at least. I know my score is no wowser. It's not going to knock the socks off anyone. Yet I think my score is solid enough to demonstrate that I have what it takes to be in med school! =)
On to other news...
Yesterday after work I went to play tennis. Someone much much better than me has graciously offered to give me some lessons. He said I was pretty good! After being much abused by a certain someone else (whose name shall not be revealed) I'm very gratified to be told that I am quite above average for a beginner.
It's amazing too. Once he showed me a few tricks regarding how to hold the ball, I began to play so much better. There was more control in my strokes and I was able to keep up a decent volley. So anyway, I'm glad I went and hopefully I'll continue. I think I can make tennis a lifelong hobby. I see people in their 50's and 60's playing. I still have a good forty years to go.

How to hold the ball? The only time you are holding the ball is during your serve. I'd give free lessons but apparently, I'm an abusive teacher. Have you seen Hell's Kitchen? That's the only way someone will learn. Besides, I wasn't THAT abusive. It's just frustrating when I tell someone to do something and they won't do it.
Wonderful emily!!!
Correction to post: once I learned how to hold the racquet correctly, everything became much easier.
