All that for a loss?

This ones for all my lovely friends back home so they know EXACTLY what went down yesterday. And after all this, we lost... feel my pain, friends, feel my pain. (I know this post is bound to bring a lot of negative comments, but oh well) .

Friday: Woke up feeling really sick.
Saturday: Sicker still
Sunday:
7:30- So sick I couldn't even get out of bed for church.
12:30- Probed by Sammy as to whether I was going to be well enough to go to the game. The response: "No, but yes!'
Monday:
11:00- Woke up feeling kinda yucky. Brunch was really yummy though
12:00- Attempted homework with Sarah...quite unsuccesful.
2:00- Learning to play Smash Brothers with Sarah. I think its more fun to just hit buttons and see what happens, but apparently there is an actual rime and reason to the game.
4:00- Leave for the Orange Bowl! Woohoo
4:15- Arrive at the metro station and quickly informed that the people with the free metro passes weren't there yet.
4:20- Consensus finally arrived that we were going to just pay to go to the Orange Bowl
4:22- Waiting and waiting and waiting for the metro
4:45- FINALLY the metro arrives. Take the long trip to the bus station.
5:15-Finally arrive at the Orange Bowl. Push our way through the crowds to get to the Student Entrance.
5:16- Informed that the gates will not be opening until 6 PM. More waiting
5:20- Raining starts. Now, for those of you who watched it on TV, the rain during the second half did not even compare to what we stood in.
5:35- Someone lights a cigarette right by me...nauscious feeling begins. Evan asks if they would put it out because Sarah and I were alergic; request completely ignored.
6:30- FINALLY make it into the Orange Bowl after being stepped on, pushed around, and holding on for dear life.
7:00- Go to get dinner and realize they dont take debit cards at the Orange Bowl. Scrounge up some cash and buy dinner.
7:55- Singing on the UM Alma Mater and the National Anthem.
8:00- KICK OFF!!!
9:05- Being feeling nautious all over again either from the cigarette smoke or the lovely smell of some illegal substance.
10:00- Half time...leave the stands to get away from the cigarette smoke...quite certain I'm going to throw up.
10:30-Rain starts all over again. Orange Bowl stands change from Orange and Green to other tandom colors of ponchos such as blue and yellow.
11:45- Defeat :0(
12:00- Start waiting for a bus...almost get seperated from my friends
1:25- Finally make it back to our dorms
2:00- Sleep, still quite sick and nauscious
Tuesday:
8:45- Wake up, shower, pretend I'm awake...attend class until 3:15
11:00- Informed by Sandy that our fish died :0( Melissa blames it on the loss.

And with all that...I'll still attend every home game and still cheer for the Hurricanes because....


ITS GREAT TO BE A MIAMI HURRICANE!!!!!!!!!!
