Athletics Week

This week was my classes' swimming week. After literature, we left the school and headed toward the Shelton High School pool. (For your information, I am a really bad swimmer.) Every day, we practice the crawl stroke, breast stroke, butterfly stroke, and the back stroke. On Monday, I did horrible. I had two/three tutors: Mrs. Manning (my P.E. teacher), Mrs. Kempton (my friend's mom), and Mrs. Swanson (my homeroom teacher). It was sad. I was a wreak. But yesterday-Friday-I somersaulted off the diving board two times! It was so fun! During the week I jumped off the diving board 15 times! Amazing, considering I usually sink to the bottom. (Also, the diving pool is 12 feet deep.) Another thing that was yesterday was the districk track meet. Wow, as I think about it, I will say this: I was a complete and total wreak yesterday. I did so bad at long jump. Wow. I jumped 11' 2". And that's not the worst of it. I had two scratches! Those were the first scratches this whole year! It was bad. But at least I placed. 50 wasn't so bad. I got second because-according to Becca, Rachel, and Alix-I didn't lean in at the last part. I have to admit I was sorta angry. Relay actually was better than I thought it would be. We got 4th place at 1:00.1. The only bad thing was that our record was 1:00 flat. Sorta weird? Yup. Well, I got to go. TTFN Oh, yeah. We have a biathalon next Friday. Ugh.
