This is a happy vent. And it's going to sound really crazy. This kid on swim. Pisses me off. And not just any type of pissing me off. He pisses me off to the point where I wanted to jump a lane over to drown him. BUT. This is a good thing. Because then I'm pushing myself harder than I would normally push myself [I'm swimming with tendonitis, I'm anemic, and I've been dehydrated lately]. And oh my. He was racing me down the pool. And this kid can barely swim for his life. Can't dive, can barely swim. And he goes ahead of me. I catch up with him half way down the lane [I'm in lane 3 with my friend, and he's in lane 4], continue swimming, go back another 25 meters, and I'm a lap and a half ahead of him. I'm not trying to brag. I know it may seem like it. But I've not said two words to him, other than 'Eyy, can I go ahead of you?' I mean. He tries. And if he didn't have this sudden issue with me, then we'd make really good friends [hurray for second chances!], but he hates my guts. And he made the mistake of challenging someone who is really competitive when it comes to swimming. Aha. Ohh this season is going to be great. I love this sport.

Why does he hate your guts? Cause you're a better swimmer??? I'm totally getting into swimming. I just went with my friend a couple nights ago after not being in a pool for like....5 years. I need goggles and I suck at the breas.t stroke, but I can go pretty fast doing the back stroke. It must look strange but there are separate pools for leisure laps (me) and serious laps. But. Yeah.. I love swimming now... How long you been swimming for, Sunny?

Probably because he paints his nails black and wears eyeliner, and is into that whole punk scene, which is kinda me, but I've started wearing clothes that flatter my body shape, which is American Eagle clothing. And Bstroke is really hard to do. My time is over a minute for that. Backstroke is easy. Its simple, but I can't do the flipturns. Freestyles more my stroke, I can swim that almost perfectly. Mmm. I've always been swimming, just on my own time. I joined my neighborhoods team over the summer, and then my high schools team this year. So I'm trying to become a year round swimmer(: And Cyverz, go you! You might be the next Dr Seuss ;D

I love American Eagle stuff. My favorite shirt is from there. You must be in pretty good shape, then Sunny. :shock:

PFT. No. Me and in shape don't mix. I be a fatty

But I'm not supposed to be a small girl. Full height is supposed to be 5'11", though doctor said I'm almost done growing [at 5'4 now]. And I'm more of a runners build, but I can't run worth hell. Found my element in life, which is water, and just focused on it. Really helps with the drama going through my life right now, too.

Yeah... well you can't swim all the time and not be in shape... lol. And I don't just mean body, right? Heart.... Anyway..

Just recently started swimming year round. And then when I moved, I kinda got really depressed... and gained weight. And then I lost a lot in the past three years. But I would swim kinda out of fun, just hang out at the pool for a day, you know? Swim laps... Ect. It took me a while to gain the endurance. Aha. I remember, I couldn't even swim 25 meters of freestyle without stopping, and sucking breath, and I had to wait ten minutes before I could swim again. Then at the beginning of the summer, it was hell. It gets chilly in the evening during the summer, and the pool got cold. And then in the mornings... It felt good. I had to ride my bike all the way up the street and around the roundabout, which really is okay, but the street is a dead uphill street. And all my strength is in my arms. Aha. My only issue is my dives. I can't dive correctly. I've gotten good about the position, and I was -terrified- of coming off the block, but now, I can't get my lower half to not hit the water. It doesn't hurt, I mean your main reaction as soon as you hit the water is to swim, and if you don't, drown... o.o Like at tonights meet, I was pissed off. For several reasons. Drama being one, and the other being I missed my 100 meters due to being in the bathroom and not being able to hear. So... I missed that. Swam a fifty meter and a 50 meter relay, which I did pretty good on, and on the fifty meter, I lowered my time 500 seconds [this is what coach said. Heh.] Its still not good enough. I'm swimming 40 second for 50 meters right now. I need my time down to about 29 seconds. Grr. My heart, I know this much, is in pretty good shape. I've been working on holding my breath as part of warmup, I can hold it for 30 seconds now :] And exhale... and inhale... hold... exhale.

Howdy, Stranger!
