Activities for this Up-Coming Semester

As school starts next week, I'm already planing for it. This is a draft of the e-mail I just sent to the Director of Athletics. I met him last week and I was exited to know that our school is having athletics among the sport this semester.

Dear Coach Bello,

I am writing to notify you of my interest in
AAUN Athletics.

As I told you, when we met in the
Admissions Office the other day, I'm a maraton runner. I should have
sent you this e-mail earlier, but I needed to see first if I could still run. So
on sunday, i.e. two days ago, I made out to the street of Yola, heeding to
Jimeta. I however broke down on getting to Yola run-about after having ran 25
minutes. Some how, I think it is still a nice start as it's been eight years
ago since I ran this far.

Right now, I really don't know whether
to train myself for short distance (to gain speed) instead of for long distance
race (to gain stamina). This is because training for long distance race is
highly demanding and in this coming semester, I've got lots of
activities to engage in. I'm in the school choir, newspaper club, hope to join
one of the intra mural football league, engage in work study, have 22 credits to
register (which sur-passes the highest number of credits-19, aloud to register
in) and with honor in each, joining book club, joining AAUN ACM (i.e.
Association of Computer Machinery) and probably engaging in high jump. I am really
not very good at the latter but I love it greatly. I could squize out some few
miniutes each week preparing for it is available. I may also spend 20 mins every
week, playing lawn tennis.

Until I hear from
you,

Omorx
