Self Improvement

After relaxing with dinner and a movie, Heather O’Reilly and Lori Chalupny went to a book store by the hotel to gather some “provisions” for China to feed “the downtime” that will undoubtedly need feeding, uh…filling. Eschewing the normal pulp fiction and self-help books, O’Reilly gets major points for planning on some serious self-improvement for China. She bought the Rosetta Stone Spanish language CDs and a book titled “1,000 Test Words You Need to Know.” Now, O’Reilly is long past studying for the SATs, but certainly not past improving her already extensive vocabulary. O’Reilly is almost graduated from UNC, just needing a semester of student teaching to get her degree. Her new purchases will no doubt come in handy should she go into the teaching profession following her soccer career, as well as in china, where she will certainly be the most “erudite” player on the U.S. team. Anyone know how to say erudite in Spanish? Come September O’Reilly will…well, might.
