Good for him. 291 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:37,720 But I told I think I told you that when I found out how 292 00:19:37,799 --> 00:19:41,680 much it was. It's forty five hundred dollars a kid, and I was 293 00:19:41,759 --> 00:19:45,319 like, for two for both of kids. One, it's almost ten thousand 294 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:52,920 dollars to send them on a trip that would be very education intensive, which 295 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,799 I felt like, it's not going to be super fun. It will be 296 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,880 educational, right, it's not like going to be just a great time. 297 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,000 Right, So I feel like I might as well to save that money, 298 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,720 right, they can do a trip like my friend my really good friend, 299 00:20:07,799 --> 00:20:14,880 Laura's daughter and two of her friends.

It wasn't as bad as like Japan. 327 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,519 Maybe, I mean, I'm saying I would do it, but for the 328 00:22:03,559 --> 00:22:07,400 fact that they're not going to be have the best time ever and it's that 329 00:22:07,519 --> 00:22:10,240 much money, I was just like I can't.

I got videos of that Sunny 334 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:30,200 singing my Frank Sinatra's My Way with his friends, which is really sweet because 335 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,039 I know that that's a special song for him because we played that at my 336 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:37,640 dad's funeral and he always talks about it. So when they sent the teacher 337 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:41,599 sent that like just out like all the kids doing karaoke. When I saw 338 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,240 that video, I was like, oh, I'm so cute. But yeah, 339 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,759 it was. It was very restrictive, like yet a couple hours of 340 00:22:48,799 --> 00:22:52,279 free time, but then you're on the bus again. Right, yeah, 341 00:22:52,279 --> 00:22:56,799 that's right. Yeah. When Elbie did some school trip, it was like 342 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,599 eighth grade or at the end of end of right, at the end of 343 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,119 eighth grade. Oh, end of eighth grade is actually when they went to 344 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:10,400 DC, right. But during that year they did like Astrocamp, the Astrocamp 345 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,359 and then there's another one. There's like a science pod they do or see 346 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:19,000 me c I m I it's like something the institute anyway, but Astrocamp was 347 00:23:19,039 --> 00:23:25,200 something else. But I just remember I'll be telling me that that like they 348 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,279 went a little crazy at the hotel because you know, they were playing like 349 00:23:27,559 --> 00:23:33,799 cards against humanity and that they were the chaperones or whatever. We're actually kind 350 00:23:33,799 --> 00:23:37,359 of cool about it. They were like whatever, We're not see no evil 351 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,119 here, you know. Yeah, so they said they that was actually kind 352 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,160 of fun, but only like after hours, right, But then some of 353 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,359 the boys were trying to sneak over to hang out with the girls. Nothing 354 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,920 like nefarious. They were trying to like sleep with them. But the then 355 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,839 they got really mad at the boys for like trying to like sneak over and 356 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:57,799 hang out with the girls. And it was Elvis said, it was only 357 00:23:57,799 --> 00:24:02,119 like ten o'clock at night, like, yeah, they're coming at one in 358 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,880 the morning. Is Ell be gonna miss doing going to a camp? Is 359 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:10,880 this her first summer? No no camp? M h. How does she 360 00:24:11,039 --> 00:24:18,319 feel? Well? Elby is, uh, yeah, I don't mean she's 361 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:22,319 an adult now. I know. I know a lot of the kids that 362 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,359 she from last year are going back to camp, but a lot of them 363 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:30,559 aren't because a lot of them are leaving for college early. So I think 364 00:24:30,799 --> 00:24:37,559 I think I'll answer honestly, I think that she's very distracted by her boyfriend. 365 00:24:37,599 --> 00:24:40,519 And her boyfriend is going to be leaving town soon, and I don't 366 00:24:40,559 --> 00:24:45,000 think she had any interest in being like out at camp with no access to 367 00:24:45,079 --> 00:24:48,599 Like She's like, what, Yeah, I want to see him as much 368 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,319 as I can before he leaves, and like why would I go to camp 369 00:24:52,319 --> 00:24:56,839 and be away from him all this much? Sooner? So yeah, and 370 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,200 then I don't know because she's going to be having to take some classes at 371 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:07,319 Pierce College. So you know, I as I tried, a lot of 372 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:11,319 people have messaged me on Facebook or tried to send me emails. Yeah, 373 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,880 no, figured out how to get my email addressed. Stalkers I like to 374 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,799 call them and said, Elbe really needs to like send an email. Like, 375 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,039 so there's a thing if you don't get into college or if you're on 376 00:25:23,079 --> 00:25:27,440 a wait list called a letter of continued interest. So a lot of people 377 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,559 were like, she really needs to send a letter of continued interest. But 378 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:36,200 what I would tell everybody is that you see, Santa Barbara doesn't allow them. 379 00:25:36,279 --> 00:25:40,799 They don't they don't read them, and they make a big Kasha about 380 00:25:40,799 --> 00:25:42,759 it. They're just like, I don't know if Kasha would be the right 381 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:47,519 or they do. They make a big production out of like, we don't 382 00:25:47,599 --> 00:25:49,960 take letters of continued interests. Here's all the things that you're not going to 383 00:25:51,039 --> 00:25:53,519 do. I'm not going to be reading letters of continued interest. You can't 384 00:25:53,559 --> 00:25:57,680 do an appeal if you're on the wait list anyway, So just sit back 385 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:03,400 and relax and wait and see if you get into the school. But we 386 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:07,720 had a moment, a low moment recently where Elbert where because some other friends 387 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,880 of hers have gotten off the wait list at UCSB and not LB, and 388 00:26:11,079 --> 00:26:18,920 she was just not wanting to do some of the paperwork, digital paperwork involved 389 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:23,240 with getting into Pierce. And I told her, look, let's send an 390 00:26:23,279 --> 00:26:30,279 email to UCSB. I go, it's not officially a letter of continued interest. 391 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,160 Let's just write let's just see if there's an email address where we can 392 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,759 write to the admissions office and be like, hey, so this is not 393 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,599 a letter of continued to interest. But that in a subject, right, 394 00:26:41,279 --> 00:26:45,480 And here's the thing, like, this is my specialty. My speciality, 395 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:52,160 right is like being ballsy, right, writing a hustler, like find a 396 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,960 way around it. You know, I said, it can't hurt. They're 397 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:57,079 not going to be like, oh my god, this girl was on the 398 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,079 way to list, and she tried to send us a lot of continued interest. 399 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:04,640 She is outright, I go nobody's gonna care. So I was like, 400 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,039 let's find So we went on the thing. We found a think to 401 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:12,920 the admissions office where they're really supposed to write to them if you are getting 402 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:18,240 off the wait list, like if you're canceling or if you're I don't know 403 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:22,680 other reasons, not like hey, checking in on the wait list. So 404 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,079 I told her listen started right in the email, Hey, I'm on the 405 00:27:26,079 --> 00:27:30,799 wait list. I totally know that you don't accept letters of continued interest, 406 00:27:30,839 --> 00:27:36,160 So this is not a letter of continued interest. I'm just writing to say 407 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:37,799 that like, oh my gosh, I really want to come to this school, 408 00:27:38,079 --> 00:27:41,759 right, and like I help. I just helped her with like, 409 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,519 Listen. As soon as I came on a tour at this school, I 410 00:27:45,599 --> 00:27:51,480 absolutely was like, this is the place for me, and I understand there's 411 00:27:51,519 --> 00:27:55,039 a lot of applicants, blah blah blah. Consider this just a hail Mary, 412 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,720 you know that's good. And so she did. She wrote it and 413 00:27:57,759 --> 00:28:02,640 sent it and then she got back this like a form letter that was basically 414 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:06,559 like but it did say LB on it. So I'm like, look, 415 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,799 even though they sort of cut and pace their standard spiel to you, they 416 00:28:10,839 --> 00:28:14,400 had to have opened your email, right or how would they know that your 417 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:18,599 name's Elby right right? Like? And they would have to know what you 418 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,119 were writing them about to send you their form email about how we don't accept 419 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:29,160 letters of continued interest, but everybody should will be alerted by June thirtieth if 420 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:33,759 they've gotten into the school. And just know that there was only an acceptance 421 00:28:33,839 --> 00:28:38,160 rate of twenty three percent this year, which is super low because like two 422 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:44,200 years ago is thirty eight percent. I think last year it was like thirty 423 00:28:44,279 --> 00:28:47,400 percent, and so this year is twenty three percent. So they said, 424 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:52,200 you should feel very flattered that you even are on the wait list, you 425 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:57,039 know. Anyway, So she was pretty bummed about that, but I told 426 00:28:57,039 --> 00:29:00,680 her, well, so she's going she has to sign up for a class 427 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:06,119 for a summer class. If she wants to do this yeah Pierce College program 428 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,599 into one year. She has to do. She has to take a certain 429 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:12,400 amount of classes in a certain amount of time, and one of them is 430 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:17,640 probably going to have to happen over the summer. But she's really like dragging 431 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:21,319 her heels yeah, and I'm having to really parent, you know, I 432 00:29:21,319 --> 00:29:26,319 don't enjoy, which is like, okay, sit down, and we're going 433 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:30,279 we're doing the application right, and it's not super easy. They don't make 434 00:29:30,319 --> 00:29:33,720 things easy. So and then you need a counselor to help you figure out 435 00:29:33,799 --> 00:29:40,480 what classes to take, and she she's already had two meetings with counselors. 436 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,880 But then, okay, I don't I hope this isn't like super boring. 437 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:48,960 No, this is interesting to me because I'm looking at my future right and 438 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,400 I'm looking if LB can't you know what I mean? My kids? It's 439 00:29:52,440 --> 00:30:00,119 hard. So UCSB, this is a weird. But psychology at different in 440 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,319 colleges means different things. So I might have told you guys this before. 441 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:07,640 But she applied to psychology at UCSB, which is actually brain science, so 442 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,920 she didn't realize that she was. She thought she was applying to like a 443 00:30:11,039 --> 00:30:15,480 humanities like, you know, psychology, Hey, what makes people tick? 444 00:30:15,799 --> 00:30:21,759 Not like what's happening in your brain, which apparently entails a lot of fucking 445 00:30:21,839 --> 00:30:26,960 boatload of chemistry, physics, and biology, which she was like, oh 446 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:30,400 how though, Yeah, so I might have told you guys this before. 447 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:37,559 So the thing is she could still apply next year to be in the psychology 448 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:42,240 program at UCSB, but she would have to take all these certain classes in 449 00:30:42,319 --> 00:30:45,839 one year. And she's like, she'd have to take us definitely a chemistry 450 00:30:45,839 --> 00:30:52,480 class over the summer and a bio bio and then a second that would be 451 00:30:52,559 --> 00:30:56,880 a prerequisite to the chemistry class that she needs for this program. So that's 452 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:03,279 two chemistry classes and then next like right this year plus a plus a high 453 00:31:03,359 --> 00:31:08,960 level biology class, plus physics. And she's like, but if she majors 454 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:15,160 in like sociology much different. You could take like statistics, which she already 455 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:21,240 took a p stats. She already took it, so that covers that requirement. 456 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,400 A lot of the requirements are already done, so she won't have to 457 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:29,839 take as many classes that she anyway. But in order to go through that, 458 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,920 she has to meet with a counselor again. So she's already met with 459 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,799 two. But now she's going to do a different major. So it's just 460 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,839 like Byzantine. It's like okay, So every time she thinks she's done, 461 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,359 I'm like, okay, but did you do this? But did you apply 462 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:45,839 to the honors program? But no, I'm like Okay, you need to 463 00:31:45,839 --> 00:31:52,759 apply to the honors. And every time I met with like, yeah, 464 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,519 yeah, maybe a little tears because she's it sucks for her. But I'm 465 00:31:56,559 --> 00:32:00,319 like, I know it sucks, but like it's gonna suck more if you 466 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:05,920 do nothing right, like and this opportunity goes away, that's going to really 467 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,680 suck, right, Like, this isn't I can't do it for you. 468 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,440 You have to fill this stuff out. You have to do it. So 469 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:15,359 we did some of that this morning. But now I today was juneteenth, 470 00:32:15,519 --> 00:32:20,720 so school school's closed. Yeah, so no counselors to meet with. So 471 00:32:20,759 --> 00:32:25,799 anyway, tomorrow she'll meet with a counselor and then she'll figure out what classes 472 00:32:25,839 --> 00:32:30,200 she needs. She might have missed some deadlines though already for summer, like 473 00:32:30,319 --> 00:32:35,559 Natalia got on it early. She's already doing her class. Yeah. Oh 474 00:32:35,599 --> 00:32:37,319 that's high school though, right, yeah, she's got another year, but 475 00:32:37,359 --> 00:32:40,519 yeah, she's getting her Spanish done. Yeah. So anyway, Elbi does 476 00:32:40,559 --> 00:32:45,240 not want to be doing classes or being at camp or doing anything that's super 477 00:32:45,279 --> 00:32:49,079 time consuming because that would take away from like hanging out with her. Guy, 478 00:32:49,599 --> 00:32:52,839 don't all kids want to do this at this time, at this age? 479 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,680 You know, they've had an ass full of school, like they need 480 00:32:55,720 --> 00:33:00,599 totally, and I get burnt out at it. Her burnt out, I 481 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:05,640 know, I know, and I Standard would just die if they had to 482 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,160 do any more school over the summer. But then they also get bored so 483 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:13,079 fast, right right, and you know their mental health can just like shoo. 484 00:33:13,559 --> 00:33:15,079 Yeah, like if they're not busy with a lot of friends and stuff 485 00:33:15,119 --> 00:33:19,000 to do, that all of a sudden, they're sitting in the house, 486 00:33:19,839 --> 00:33:23,599 sitting in their rooms. Yeah, looking a TikTok yeah, going on board 487 00:33:23,759 --> 00:33:29,319 right right, Yeah, that's that's where parenting comes in. And it's like, 488 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,240 I'm allergic to it. I know, I just want to do fun. 489 00:33:32,279 --> 00:33:36,599 Shit. Should I take We don't have it? Oh we're not. 490 00:33:36,839 --> 00:33:40,240 Oh oh but let's take a quick break. Okay, Should I take my 491 00:33:40,319 --> 00:33:45,960 kids to Vegas? Should take Standard to Vegas? Is there fun stuff to 492 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:52,680 do for kids? Though? I like to gamble sports gambling?

It's like 504 00:34:34,679 --> 00:34:37,679 it's not just for golfers, right, it's a place to go and like 505 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:39,880 have fun. And yeah, you are swinging at a driving range, but 506 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:45,559 it's from what I've heard, much more entertaining than just a basic driving range. 507 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:49,760 Yeah. I don't know. I don't know what would. But there's 508 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,599 like pool at the hotel, right, and then there's shows and there's a 509 00:34:53,599 --> 00:34:59,480 little like amusement.

See, summer is good for 522 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,679 something. They're doing their driver's ed. Yes, yes, so that they 523 00:35:46,679 --> 00:35:52,039 can and so uh. And Elbie is being such a good coach because she's 524 00:35:52,079 --> 00:35:54,159 like, forget, don't try to read all the stuff. So much of 525 00:35:54,199 --> 00:35:59,000 it is common sense. She's like, just just go through it. Try 526 00:35:59,039 --> 00:36:01,760 to do the quizzes. Sometimes if you fail the quiz, you have to 527 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:07,079 do it again, like within the driver's head online course or they're doing. 528 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,719 She's like, and then once you get through it, even if you haven't 529 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:14,400 learned that much, you do like quizlets, quizlets, quizlets, there's like 530 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,679 an app, right, driver's head app basically, and then she's like, 531 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:21,360 and then they're going to go in and try to pass, try to get 532 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,320 their permits. Yeah, so they can start driving this summer. There you 533 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:27,719 go. That's fun. Yeah, that's fun. So that'll be a fun 534 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:31,679 thing to do, get their permits, drive their asses around, that might 535 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:37,599 get they're doing the actual driving instruct their dude, Okay, yeah, because 536 00:36:37,639 --> 00:36:42,280 Sonny is Sonny can get his license now at any time. Okay, he 537 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,880 just needs to get the driver's instructor. So he has he done any lessons 538 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,280 with the instrument. He was he was going to but then he went to 539 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,840 Japan, so now he just did it this morning. Okay. Yeah. 540 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,320 They need a certain amount of hours and then they get their certificate yea for 541 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,400 doing the driving. Then they get their license, right then they can take 542 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,719 that and they go get Yeah, they get their license. Yeah, so 543 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:07,199 that's what they're doing. But and Italia has her permit now too, right, 544 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:13,840 so and then she'll be able to get her license like September. Okay, 545 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:17,000 yeah, perfect, Yeah, so that's what they're doing. Yeah. 546 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:23,400 So then and if Sadie and Xander get their license, well next year, 547 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:28,960 oh my gosh, they could already be driving themselves to school a softmore. 548 00:37:29,039 --> 00:37:34,880 Imagine, I'll be living this sweet life. Talk about a corner office. 549 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:39,599 Don't need don't they need an adult in the car though, at that point 550 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:45,239 or something after they get their license, as soon as they pass their as 551 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:47,679 soon as they get their permit, the clock is running six months until they 552 00:37:47,679 --> 00:37:52,440 can get their license, right, right, So let's just say they get 553 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,159 their license a little bit into their sophomore year. Well, I guess no, 554 00:37:55,280 --> 00:38:00,119 it would be well into their sophomore year at this point. Well, 555 00:38:00,119 --> 00:38:01,559 if they get their license, now, let's say they get their lights, 556 00:38:01,599 --> 00:38:07,159 their their pre July. Then they'll be able to take the test like December 557 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,679 or January, right, and then they'll have their license. Yeah, and 558 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:14,480 they can start driving like they'll still be tenth graders. Yeah, it'll be 559 00:38:14,559 --> 00:38:15,880 nice. That would be nice. Yeah, and then I have to buy 560 00:38:16,039 --> 00:38:24,360 LB a car. Adam's going to help me. Yeah, because so I 561 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:28,360 told I think I told you that. I told her, wee John, 562 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,000 and I told her that if she doesn't, if she gets if she goes 563 00:38:31,039 --> 00:38:36,039 to UCSB, obviously buy you're you're at school, you don't need a car. 564 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,559 But if she doesn't, and she's stuck right at home, and we're 565 00:38:40,559 --> 00:38:45,519 gonna get her car because doesn't she want a car? Oh? Yeah, 566 00:38:45,559 --> 00:38:49,760 she wants a car. But I'm saying she because because she just drunk. 567 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:53,280 Because we both work from home, and hardly ever there's always a car available 568 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:57,880 for her, so we've never bought her a car. Um. So I 569 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,920 told her that we would get her a car as kind of a consolation. 570 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:06,360 Well, graduation present consolation too. You didn't get into school, so you 571 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:09,000 have a car to drive. That's nice. That's nice. Yeah, and 572 00:39:09,039 --> 00:39:14,639 then of course our second Then our second car will probably be Sadie and Xander 573 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,239 right right. Oh, they get their license, that's gonna be cool. 574 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:22,000 Yeah, they're gonna be driving to school. Kaylin, what are your kids 575 00:39:22,039 --> 00:39:24,440 doing this summer? You got you saying you're going to sign them up for 576 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:29,280 stuff? Yeah, well I was just finished her summer school. She just 577 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,320 did two weeks of she went every day as opposed to during the regular school 578 00:39:32,639 --> 00:39:35,800 or she was only doing two days a week. So she liked that. 579 00:39:36,519 --> 00:39:42,719 We just signed them both up for dance, um, like through the park 580 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:49,000 or something.

I remember her soft ball when we signed 596 00:41:01,519 --> 00:41:07,800 them up, both of them and Natalia is just like smacking it the ball, 597 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:12,199 and then Sonny goes up and he's misses and swings, misses and swings, 598 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,519 keeps swing and miss, swing and miss. And then Natalia is in 599 00:41:15,559 --> 00:41:20,559 the outfield going, come on the ball already, and she's sitting down and 600 00:41:20,599 --> 00:41:23,920 then she lay and the coach is going, get up.
