Oh, sweet cornstalks forbid!

Oh the vast expanse of knowledge available at my dispense every day!
Some things I learned from badminton, week 1:

1. Anger is a very powerful emotion. Channeling anger into mindless efforts is healthy (in my case). When I can, I run a very long time - far, far away, preferably. When I can't, the floor is always ready to receive several push-ups, 100 in today's case, along with an abundance of lunges, 200 in today's case.

2. Everyone's backhand clear is weak! This is great news to me.

3. Channeling anger into a task that requires logical thinking quite possibly the stupidest thing I could do in regards to math team and badminton games.

4. Working hard is immensely satisfying after a prolonged period of not working hard. My body is short of reaping the benefits, as in my depression I have consummated two stomachs of food on a daily basis, but returning the Midwest to simply "hit around" with Elite Team is absolutely gratifying. Temporarily. Of course, this comes with 300 sets of footwork. But whatever. 400 next time.
