So I wasn't expecting to have a great day today, with a final and lots of studying and missed-out on hours of sleep ahead, but then I came across this while leaving my last class of the semester. It instantly put a smile on my face, so I thank whoever put this here-turtle or human. The best part was that I could hear voices/pipes clanging down in the sewer (no joke) and a light was on. Maybe they were really having interviews? If so, then I definitely missed out, but I hope it can bring a smile to your face like it did mine!

Here is a pic of the UVA Women's Club Soccer team from Nationals in Phoenix. It was a great weekend, and a beautiful place to play-a soccer player's heaven! We got a little unlucky in the end, losing in overtime, penalty kicks and finally sudden death penalty kicks to Ohio State. It is frustrating because it was obvious that we were the better team (I know everyone always says that, but this time it is actually true). We were in their half most of the game, had a bunch of really close chances, and dominated possession. Unfortunately when it comes down to PKs a lot of the final decision depends on luck, chance, and whoever practices PKs more, and we came out on the short end. But our team played phenomenally, and really impressed me this weekend with their talent, heart and commitment to the team. I'm really lucky to have such a great team, even if I couldn't be on the field with them in Arizona. I can't wait to be back in the spring! Approximately 2 months til I can start playing around again! :)
