My right leg is killing me, I'm not looking forward to tomorrow

[quidditchovered]

annnnnd yet another swat practice ends in quinjuries

I got quite the scrape under my arm, I don't even know how it happened but it buuuuurnnns. 

My finger started bleeding out of nowhere (turns out I cut it on something).

And as usual...bruises, bruises everywhere (some particularly big ones on my knees).

All of this just in time for prom next week!

So I got a half-serious quinjury at Quidditch practice and then spent six hours in four inch heels at the Oxford Yule Ball and my leg is DYING right now but

Doctor: Do you play any sports?

Me: Um, I play quidditch.

Doctor: That's a real sport. I've seen more injuries from quidditch than from most of the other sports here.

You never know how much Quidditch kicked your ass until you wake up the next morning.

ATTENTION ALL QUIDKIDS

I remember that relatively recently, somebody did a survey on Quidditch injuries (Quinjuries) but I can't seem to find it!

Now, a fellow team, Ithaca Hex, is trying to become officially recognized as a campus club! I got a message asking for help, because they had a note asking for very specific injury statistics and information:

"III. History of Injuries in Activity/Sport. [This topic area must be thorough. Find information through the NCAA, a national governing body and/or at the high school level (if relevant). If the committee knows more information is available which was not included, the proposal will be returned without action taken.]"

So whoever has any statistics and the like, please let me know so I can pass the word on, as soon as possible! Surveys, official compiled statistics, etc!

Let's help them get all the information they need so they can get official : )

Quove and snitches!

Have I ever mentioned how much I love quidditch?

Gaaaaaah Zombie Quidditch was the best! We only had 13 players because we haven't had time to train the freshman, and 3 players had to leave early for a mandatory Orgo lecture, but we still got 2nd place! :D

I don't even mind that we lost in the final; we were beat by the Badassilisks, whom we absolutely adore (even more so now that Davy Pink Gloves has joined their ranks.)

We played really well even with such a small team. In the quarter final against Hofstra, we only had 9 players because of an injury, and we still won. It was so awesome.

Also, I got a lot more playing time than I have in other tournaments, and I feel like I beat really well. ^_^ In our second game against NYU, I beat all three chasers in one play!

We had a scare though; a guy from NYU tackled Cami by wrapping his arm around her neck. It was terrifying, but she's alright now; she was well enough to play in the final. I hate it when quidditch gets violent. :/

Anyways, overall it was a great tournament.

I am home!

Well. At my parents house, anyway. 

I got my very last quinjury this morning (if it even counts) by slicing my leg on a bare piece of metal moving all the equipment out of my apartment. Lame.

Also, after almost a year, my second favourite pair of boots was reunited. AND THEN THE ZIPPER BROKE ON ONE. UGH.
