Try and Do Something New

A new backs coach has been drafted in for rugby this year and it's about time too. Finally, the school are taking sport more seriously and recognising we are going to have to try and do something new if we're going to win more than just 2 games like last year. We act all 'laddish' and cocky (despite the fact we're all posh) but this new coach, Matt, comes along and scares us shitless, transforming a load of 16-18 year olds into little year 7s. So this afternoon we had one of the most productive sessions we've had in years, which was brilliant. We'll still probably get dicked on though...
Watched England murder Croatia in the evening but by myself sadly. It's always better to watch football with others and I even I tried watching it with my Mum but she was far more interested in David Beckham's tatoos and 'why that player is so small'. Amazing.
Today I learnt that a no nonsense attitude of a coach is enough to bring out the shy little child in all of us. It was quite funny because this guy Matt is about 5'6 and its hilarious how his snarl made us all quiver in respectful fear. Still, I wouldn't want to ruffle his feathers...
I learnt the main differences between socialism and communisim (in my own time so I count that).

I'm going to write a more interesting post in the coming days so hang in there!
