A Jumble of Random Stuff

Hmm... where should I start? I shall go in chronological order...

A few days ago

I had a dream about Matt. I know how weird that is, because I don't even like him. It was our school, but one of those orientations? I don't know why I was at an orientation because I have been at the middle school for the past 2 years, and this is my 3rd year. Anyways, I forgot my locker and locker combination. Haha, how dumb is that? On the first day. Then I saw Matt who was a "hall monitor," and I asked for my locker and combination because I forgot it, and apparently he knew everyone's locker combination and locker number. He wrote it down, and I had to find my locker. The school was really weird too... the hallways were all different. Me and my creative dreams. Wow.

Yesterday

Swim season started yesterday! It was actually an easy practice compared to what we usually do. It's just going to get harder and harder though...

I don't even know why I swim. I've been around water since I was born. There was a pool behind our apartment in Massachusetts. I started taking lessons and swimming on a swim team when I was 5. I was really slow. I sucked, to say.

Then slowly, after all these years, I made it on the JV team in 7th grade. I still suck. I mean, there's this girl on Varsity in 8th grade, and she's only been swimming since 5th grade. That's 3 years! 3 years and on Varsity! For me, SEVEN FLIPPIN' YEARS AND ONLY ON JV. What the heck? There is no other explanation except that I really suck at swimming, and it obviously isn't my talent or my sport. Except it's the only sport I feel comfortable doing because of all those years...

My dad wants me to go to the Olympics in London in 2012. PSH! I'm too old to start training for the Olympics. And plus, I'm really bad. And I don't want to train so hard... I mean, I would LOVE to just compete at the Olympic level. But it just isn't going to happen. Dream big. Yeah, right.

Michael Phelps is so fast! Why is he so fast??? He's like... inhuman. Wow. 8 gold medals. I'd be happy with just 1.
