Swim Chick - I Have A Lot to Talk About!

Aug. 21, 2008 - I Have A Lot to Talk About!

Hey! I'm so sorry I haven't written in so long! I just looked on here and it says I haven't written in a whole month! Well,I guess I'll have a lot to talk about then. I've just been very busy with school stating and everything. I'll try to write more often,though.

So,Championships. It was pretty good,I guess. I wasn't too happy with my times, but I had a lot of fun hanging out with my friends. I even got to race one of my friends and she beat me! But it wasn't even by a full second. She beat me in the 50 backstroke and she ended up getting second and I got third. In my 50 breaststroke,I got 41. which is okay,but I was aiming for 40. I did get 40,though! It was my split in the medley,though,that I got 40 seconds. I messed up on my turn in the individual breaststroke and that pretty much gained the whole extra second. I ended up getting fifth over all which is okay,but still. I know I could've done better. My relays did VERY good,though,and we got one second place medal and I think one third place! I was very happy about that.

Then,on August 2 was the swim banquet. There were two awards for each age group. One was the MVS award which was most valuable swimmer in the age group and the other was the Coach's award which was like the coaches favorite swimmer or whatever. I got the coaches award!!!! I am very happy about that. The banquet was so fun because I got to hang out with my friends which was cool and we played some cool games. We played a game of sharks and minnows which lasted a whole hour! Yeah,it was long,but it was a lot of fun.

So,yeah. Now swimming has been over for a while and I miss it so much! It starts again on September 15. Too long! I can wait,though. I'm going to try really hard this year to make it to zones. I have a much better chance this year because I'm the oldest in my age group and my times have gotten closer to the zone times. My 200 free time is still 15 seconds away,but I might be able to do it! You never know. I might even try to get zones in 50 back. I'm only 3 seconds away. My friend on the summer team is going to be on my fall team and shes the one who beat me in the 50 back at champs. I'll have some competition then! Maybe that will make me work harder and go faster!

Guess where I'm going tomorrow? The Jonas Brothers concert!!!!! I'm SO excited! My poor dad has to take me though. Oh,well. He'll have to get over it! The cool thing is,is that one of my friends is going to the concert too. I'll call her on her cell phone and we're going to try to find each other at the concert and we can maybe sit with her and her family. That would be so cool! I can't wait!

Well,I'll write again soon! Bye
