God totally hates the swim team xD

2006-04-30T19:01:38Z

Yay!!! We finally got our sunny meet for the team :D Picture perfect weather, no parkas in sight! A first for this season :] But of course god still hates the swim team so stuff was bound to go wrong...
Poor Randy. Somehow he managed to knockout his two front teeth on one of his dives. It's not really clear what happened but I believe that he hit his mouth on his knees upon entry. :/ Fortunately his braces kept his teeth in his mouth so the team didn't have to search for them at the bottom of the pool x___x. It wasn't pretty and the poor guy passed out shortly afterwards and was taken away by an ambulance a lil later :[ I hope that he's feeling a lot better.
In addition to Randy, 2 more Ev swimmers got hurt. Apparently someone got stung by a bee, and Ashley slipped on the gutter and cut up her leg x[ Fun fun...
I'm kicking myself right now because I missed WAY to much practice over the last week or so because of yenter study sessions and that cold I got ;--; My races were poop...since i'm not going to swear. Way to slow. No improvement. I cost seconds -_____- and I'm not a happy camper. Only the 200 Free relay went well, but that's probably because I didn't have to wind up xP
Yea...this ended up like Westmont...lost by a lousy 11 points... complete bull...but that's what happens when a huge chunk of varsity gets sick or just skips out :/ Congrats to our boys! You've finally won one! so now we're both what? 1-5? 1-6? aha! well it's all good we've got league left and since it's not duel we've got a shot and going up in the standings. Wooo...like a week left in the season and then onto PR! :D (haha we've got five 15-18 boys aha. Thanks so much for joining up guys you rock :D)

Another Painful Practice >___

2006-03-30T03:21:31Z

Once again since this year's team seems to struggle with commitment...it seems that there may be another string of cuts xD Looks like we'll have a diving team for the 1st time ever, and nobody really knows what they're doing xD haha, but wth! some people get points at meets for PENCIL dives so I guess we'll be ok xP Unfortunately V. girls is taking a turn for the worse...not only did we lose Jamie but now we've lost Hellen to something I can't spell but starts with a B and she wont' be back till April 10th x____x HAHA that leaves like 3 CCS swimmers....*waves good bye to CCS* ;--;

As for todays practice, I was so tired. Which is ironic considering I got 10 hours of sleep last nite xD Anyways I managed to hurt myself as well as get hurt by others:
1.) Catherine tried to push me into the pool while i was sitting...grinding my legs against the cement -____-
2.) I got kicked by Dan, Jen, Stephen, and some other people but I forget
3.) Slipped doing F-U-N-S on a kick board while getting out of the pool and fell on my face >___<
4.) Slipped AGAIN on the cement? while getting out of the pool and slide the side of my thigh against the cement cutting myself up -_____-
5.) The real kicker was when Dan kicked me in the leg trying to get out of the pool after the rapid fire dives x___x That probably hurt the worse...But on the plus side Dan owes me lunch now :P

Here I thought I was done being a klutz...but clearly I was wrong... I look like that girl from the stupid movie we watched in Spanish class. My legs are now covered in band-aids and it looks like I don't know how to shave x____x Oh well...at least I'm not dating some werid mexican guy named Ramon with an ugly permed mullet xD

By far the worst meet ever

2006-03-25T03:17:31Z

Well I've destroyed one of my goals for this season four times over this meet. ;--; I've never been so disapointed in a team before either. At the begining of the season we cut the team down to 80 people, sure some of them dropped out w/e people quit and it didn't really matter that much. But when less than 35 people on a team of roughly 65 don't show up I think we've got a problem. roughly 9 v. girls, 11 v. boys, 11, jv girls, and 6 jv boys. -___- yea WAY to show your dedication to the team guys.

Now honestly I know Leland is scary. I mean Holy c*** Courtney Monsees kicked my arse royally x_____x but nobody should have gotten "sick" like 20 minutes before the meet starts. Clearly we weren't gonna win, but dropping out like that is just uncalled for. I know that A league's intimidating but you know what? It doesn't do anybody any good for people to ditch! Talk about screwing over your team. We couldn't even field 3 people for an event or even have a B relay. That's pathetic guys! Plus I really don't like coming in last when I'm the only Ev girl in the pool and 3 leland girls are handing me my arse on a plater... Honestly its hard for me to believe you guys when you say that you love swimming or to lecture me about committment when you guys skip out on us like that. Thats all i have to say.
<3 a very sad corky

Just me ranting

2006-03-18T04:24:49Z

venting here oh behalf of all the girls out there who actually try to participate and enjoy PE. Yea sure the majority of us can't catch balls or run as fast as your average guy :/ but we're willing to try and heck we're the ones who're always open -____- yet...some how the ball always go to the guy surrounder by 3 or 4 of the other teams players...Since I'm not a guy I don't exactly understand what's going on here but I'm gonna call it male magnetism. There's just something about guys and balls. In volleyball for example, last time I check I was tangible and you're not supposed to take out the people on your team. As a matter of fact your not supposed to take out anybody in the game x___x Yet some how I've been pushed/collided into and forced out of the way numerous times by my own team mates xD. I know that guys love balls its like a fact of nature, but jeebus! you don't need to push me out of the way ;--;

As for our meet against Piedmont...erm...yea... attendence is importance guys... I don't have the offical scores currently but it wasn't the best meet :/ It's kinda hard to win against an AWAY team that's a 3rd bigger than the home team x____x That's not a good sign...But at least varsity girls won :D This may strike you as rude but I dont' appriciate Jv people lecturing me about commitment and then a good half of the entire JV team not showing up. I dont' EVER wanna have the commitment conversation in the locker room again -____- Trust me you don't wanna go there, and trust me there's a reason for Jv and V. I'll stop there before this gets ugly and thanks for putting up with another one of my rants.

I <3 kickboards!

2006-03-16T04:42:36Z

I hate paddles. They're not made for people with smallers hands. I have bouies, because I hate pulling, and everyone knows swimming's about the legs not the arms. I hate flippers. They hurt my ankles because they're heavy and my feet are to small and they fall off. Kick Boards. I LOVE kick boards! We should really use them more often in practice. Some of you may think they're elementry but no, they rock and they're easy to use, and fun since u can talk to people and race each other across the pool. :] I love kick boards. If I'm sore tomorrow I blame pulling -____-

My thank yous to Vincent:
-Thanks for pushing me into the pool all the time.
-Thanks for making fun of me
-Thanks for swimming under me and farting
-Thanks for spitting/spraying water on me
-Thanks for slapping me with your giant paper fan
If i'm "so asian" you are too x] and sorry but you missed abuse courtney day so plz refrain from doing so until next year.

WTF?!?! stuff actually happened at skool today! A REAL girl on girl fight and some girl passed out. And i missed it... Well there really wasn't that much with the unconcious girl except that she was out cold which is fairly unusual considering more people are only out for a few seconds. I'm more disapointed that I missed the fight. That is assuming Cathy, Lening, and Alexis weren't lying to me :/ Maybe something interesting will happen tomorrow too x]

self inflicted pain day

2006-03-10T06:40:07Z

*warning* more swim babble skip to the bottom for self inflicted pain

So yea...today we got our arse's served to us on a plater x[ I'm personally not to into this whole A league thing. I myself was much happier back in B league where technically I never won races either but in general I think I did better or at least had a shot at winning xD. So Marissa stuck to her policy and Jamie didn't swim today...and it turns out the crazy girl doesn't even have her freakin physical yet!!! OMFG! dude! come on jamie u KNOW we need you if we dont' wanna be qualifying in the last week of the season so come on now! jeebus those national level swimmers :/

The westmont swimmers were refreshingly polite and I enjoyed some nice conversations with a few of their swimmers, but I will say they were perhaps a lil to friendly X__x. Anyways we won the 200 medly with the reg crew 08 + hellen our sole freshie. After that race it occured to me that something wasn't quite right... Then it hit me! No way would we have won that race by THAT much if Noosheen Pouya was swimming... xD haha almost got my hopes up there for a second... x___x freakin Noosheen! What happened!?!?! I thought u were a freakin flier! why did u switch to free sprints x___x thanks Noosheen freakin handed my arse to me on a plater, honestly talking about blowing people out of the water. We're still in stream line and its like the race hasn't REALLY started yet and she's ALREADY 3/4 of a body length ahead of me! Now come on now Noosheen that's just not nice ;--; Oh well :/ besides Noosheen killing me in 3 out of 4 events by some cruel twist of fate the meet went pretty well xD
Results:
V. girls 71-90 Westmont
200 Medly- Helen, Catherine, Esha, Me
50 free- 3rd, 29 secs...wtf?
100 free-2nd, 1:05 WTF?!?!
200 free relay-Me, Catherine, Brittany, Helen
Technically its better than last year but clearly Branham spoiled me :/
Trust me you dont' wanna do that other results they're not pretty >_<
Sure Jv boys won but they dont' count -____- of course u win when its just YOU guys :/

As for self-inflicted pain:
1.) skinned by knee pretty bad playing volleyball 30 mins before the meet -_-
2.) cut myself on a cable pulling out swim covers
3.) Zapped myself? wiped off my boot and touched the cement and by some freak of nature zapped myself x__X?
4.) Saw Noosheen and had a freakin panic attack. Yea way to psyche myself out... now its a good thing that I don't know what Courtney Monsees looks like I'd probably have a heart attack on the deck.
5.) Forgot they combined Jv boys and girls and that I was starter for the relay and almost knocked myself out when i couldn't unzip my parka amongst my panic trying to hobble towards the blocks xD Iono there's just something about zippers and me...we're just not met to get along...(there's a long history there I'm not really willing to explain right now >_<')

Well yea hopefully will be more peaceful and painful on my part. Thank goodness for Piedmont b^o^d I'd like to win a few more individuals this season before Leigh and Leland wipe us out that is.... x___x

Good swim Tees

2006-03-09T04:53:04Z

For those of you who don't know tomorrow the swim team has a meet against Westmont and I'm predicting an all out slaughter xD Clearly our transition to A league is not going to be a very smooth one. Especially since we have a new come to practice the day before the meet or else policy xD pssh there goes a handful of the faster people on the team x___x The only other meet worth attending this year is probably gonna be next week's against Piedmont :/

Screw CCS, League, and the skool our shirts are so lame this year! Psssh no speed limits all speeds? WTF?!?! yea u can totally tell our coaches made the shirts this yr -____- last year's wasn't that bad x] Marissa said something about CCS, the league, and the skool condeming our shirt from last yr xD But honestly compared to Piedmont and creek we're angels. Swim suits optional (PH) and for water polo we like em wet and hard (creek) X__x honestly ours is G-rated in comparison :/While im talking about shirts thanks for the Pinto shirt katie. i <3 it :D

Mr. Dotson needs to try some more sports...Advanced volleyball? O__o man that's lame... u need a bump, set, spike combo to score a point... Now honestly I've been to CCS and even the like seven foot tall St. Francis girls don't do that. :/ So how bout we switch to water polo or animal ball :D great sports/games right there ;] meh enough ramble for now, i'm off to sleep in preparation of getting my arse kicked at tomorrow's meet

Freshman power! OH wait! SOPHOMORE POWER!

2006-03-04T01:34:46Z

YAY! Yesterday was the swim team's first meet. It was preseason against Branham. I don't know the offical scores yet but I'm pretty convinced that we won, actually I'd be pretty shocked if we didn't win. Especially Varsity girls cuz we're just kool like that.

I had the weridest events yesterday. NO 400 free relay :[, no 200 IM (which i've actually very fond of now), and no 100 fly! :D Some how I got 200 medly relay (the free leg), 50 free, 100 free, and 200 free relay. I'm fairly pleased with my times and we've actually got a shot at qualifying for CCS! we need like 2 more secs off of our relay times and we've got a qualifying time! Which is a huge improvement over last yr since the season hasn't offically started yet. For the First and probably the only time ever! I won all 4 of my events :D I'm so stoked! well that was until i looked up the times of some of the swimmers on Montevista's team... >__< we're so screwed... But at least we're got freshman power! or sophomore power! since we're older this yr :] oh + helen :P

For those of you who noticed today, I didin't go to skool today cuz I passed out this morning. So yea stay hydrated, don't get sick, and keep warm when you're swimming at 7 at nite xD

Abuse courtney day

2006-02-25T07:43:44Z

*warning* don't read this one if u dont' wanna read swim ramble

So...swim team had time trials today which to say in the least did not go nearly as well as I had hoped they would have. :/ I swam the 200 IM, 50 Free, 100 fly, and 100 free. Since most of the team in currently on vacation we had really small heats and some of them we ended up combining(translation: less rest time between races). The 200 IM (2 laps of each stroke:fly,back,breast,free) was first and went really well. 2:47, that's like 2, 3 secs slower than what I swam at league finals that year so I'm really happy about that. But yea...not enough people came/scratched out of their races *cough cough lazy bums cough* so I got like 3, 4 minutes of rest before my next race. x___x Normally the 50 free's a really easy race since free takes the least amount of energy and its only 2 laps :D, but sprints are pretty demanding and after the 200 IM I'm in no shape to sprint. I swam a 30!!!! A 30!!! that's appalling! I swam a 28 this summer and I couldnt' even kick in properly. Because we're combining heats, Jv and varsity, and boys and girls and I was the last heat for girls I got less than a minute break after that event x_________x Then i had the 100 fly! oh lucky me! As far as I'm concerned the 100 fly and 500 free are the murderers of swim events. That had to be the ugliest fly anyone's ever seen -____- I was very tempted just to stop at the wall but no pride always gets in the way. I was so tired I didn't even get my time, nor do I want to know it. The last of my 4 back to back events was the 100 free. Which has actually become my favorite event, and I'll normally treat as a sprint and an all out sprint on the last 25. But yea... 2, 3 minutes of break after the 100 fly REALLY isn't enough! I seriously could have used one of those intermission things we get during regular meets. I was so freakin tired I glided through the first 3 laps going fast enough to make sure I was neck and neck with the leader of the heat (since I ended up with Jv some how) and then half heartedly sprinted the last 25 (cuz i was so freakin tired). I'm not a happy camper right now! 1:13!!!!! 1:13!!! WTF is that!!! I swam 1:06 off the wall like a week ago! and off the wall is like 1:05 on the blocks! that's EIGHT WHOLE SECONDS!!!! yea drew I know ur happy that time would make you faster than me. -_____-

Now I guess I'll go through the abuse:
1.)all my events were back to back
2.)I got 3 minute long breaks at the most
3.)By some twisted fate, I was the ONLY one on the WHOLE team who had all their races back to back
4.) Vincent gave me a "gift" the happy figure :] thanks buddy
5.)Nick turned me into a punching bag
6.)That one lil boy who keeps showing up was splashing me
7.)That annoying lil boy and that lil girl were giving me depressingly slow times when I was trying to warm up in peace. Of course my 50's are 40 secs I'm gliding here!
8.)Vincent and Chris Ngo enjoyed splashing me some more
9.)Jen happily pushed me off the rough edge of the pool. Sucessfully cutting up the back of my thighs which are already howling in pain from my events.
10.) Vincent made fun of me some more.... V for victory isnt' that asian! and I'm asian xD and so are u vincent!
Oh one more:
11.)Yea im tired its break cut me some slack I forgot about the whole time trial thing (dont' ask me how) and wore 2 drag suits... I know I messed up so everyone on the team didn't need to remind me and snap my straps. I'd much rather do the pinky shake thingie for good luck than have u all snap my straps plz xD It REALLY hurts ;--;

Yea...happy Abuse Courtney Day... And my body is offically shot. <3 corky

the "happiest place on Earth"

2006-02-24T04:07:46Z

Yay I'm now back from disneyland. 7 hour drive there and 7 hrs back -____- between long car rides and swim team practice its hard to say which one messes up my sleep patterns more. Anyways it was the 50th anniversary at disneyland and I must say the fireworks rocked! :D For multiple reasons:
1.)Yea the fireworks were very nice ie.) hearts cubes and smiley faces
2.)Fabulous clips of music from various disney films
3.)Layout was impressive (pirates of the carribean was represented by a fireworks battle between the castle and the mountain)
4.)All the lines got like first 20 minutes of the park opening short! :D oh yesh!

Sadly the parade was really lousy. there was like 5, 6 floats and no mulan! >:O There was no mulan in any of the parades or shows. I'm very disapointed in Disney, but i did like the free nerf balls shot into the crowd during the block party bash parade :] Although i lots several to cute lil kids that guilt trip u. Honestly how can u deprive a crying lil kid of a nerf ball :/

Space Mountain was open again :D and they did a really good job on the improvements. Such a good job that the line was over an hr long for the ENTIRE day... :[ My sister seriously needs to learn to like more rides. Over the course of 3 days that we were there we rode that Buzz Lightgear ride over 15 times -___- sure i love shooting stuff as much as the next kid, but talk about over kill. There was a lot of Norcal ppl down at disneyland too. Like 5 ppl from PR, another 7 scouts, and Eric Alshires family.

Now that I'm back from the "happiest place on Earth" (which ironically is the place where i've seen the most crying children) I'm dying at swim practice. I loathe 500+ sets and tiny inervals x____x erm...woot.....woot....time trials are tomorrow so yea wish me luck xD I think i'd like to stay out the of 100 fly (4laps) and the 200 Im (8laps, 2 of each stroke) this year. Sorry this was so long.

the "gang" minus raj xP

2006-02-12T07:25:08Z

Yay!!! The offical swim team is gonna be posted on Monday :D Plus we finally got time trials ^___^ (well sorta) Only for the 100 free but im still pleased with the results. :] 1:06 off the wall :D which is basically 1:05 one week into the season :O I've got a great chance of breaking 1 min this season and assuming the rest of the veterans can step it up this year to make up for amanda and julia we've got a shot at CCS!!! :D

But on the flip side my grandma's been really ill and was admitted into the hospital this week so I've had to miss a lot of practice this week :[ Plus I'm not so fond of hospitals, they're so depressing honestly how is anyone supposed to get better in that setting :/

All of the girl scout cookies came in today. I got a bunch of people from school to volunteer to help distribute them and I'm very pleased with how smoothly things went. :] and then we went back to my house to hang out. Guesstures, the "gang" minus Raj vs. Japanime club plus my sister haha. and guess who won ;] good times good times and raj you better bring me back an elephant from india xD

Hoops, Turtle, and Pony Princess

2006-02-05T23:01:01Z

Lead the Way 2006 has drawn to a close. It was a really fun weekend at the Embassy Suites. Stephanie and me got our room raiders marathon again xP and I even got another new nickname. Trust me 3 hours of sitting at registration can really got old so Alex (Turtles) and Carolyn (hoops)came up with the name pony princess. I'm not really sure where the whole princess thing came from cuz I dont' really see myself as the princess type but whatever. I've got my own dance and song created by them HAHA. Its a riot and the apparently the rap is a work in progress xD I'm gonna miss u guys so much next year when you go off to college, LTW well never be the same again. :[

Coldplay :D and swim tryouts oh my :O

2006-02-02T23:00:15Z

Tecnically this blogs coming a day late but I'm so wiped out from yesterday my blog just had to wait xD Seriously I was so tired i feel asleep in english and had lines all over my face from my jacket xD but enough of that.

Swim tryouts started yesterday :D It was really awesome getting to see everyone again except practices won't be coed until the 14th or 15th :[ Practice was suprisingly easy 5x100, 10x50, 1x100, 1x200, and 1x300 and after all that everyone was dead :/ It's really bad cuz apparently all our year around swimmers didn't go year around and are more out of shape than me :/ I'm really worried now. Then all the stupid noobs didn't pull covers. I'm sorry but as part of the team you're required to pull covers. Out of 40 so girls only 7 of us were pulling plus Chris Wong thank goodness. Yes Noobs are considered part of the team and HAVE to pull covers -___- Veterans aren't there to pull your weight.

Then I went to see Coldplay with Caroyln, Alex, Stephanie, Katie, and my cousin Roseanne and Rachelle. :]Fiona Apple wasn't very good tho... her voice was super raspy so I got nachos instead of listening to her. But Coldplay was awesome and for yellow they dropped these HUGE balloons with sparkly glitter in them, and when they say "look at the stars look how they shine for you" the balloons get popped as they bounce around the audience and sparkly glitter comes out. It was a really attractive affect but I had katie next to me screaming "look yellow balls!" -____- yesh katie yellow balls xD

I guess that's about all Chris Martin's super talented and said some pretty funny stuff that's not really appropriate to quote so I'll just leave it at that. I've got practice today at 5 and I pray that Jamie Martinez shows up cuz I really want to go to CCS this yr and i doubt we can make it without her x[.

Swimmy swim swim

2006-01-30T03:08:00Z

YAY! I swam today for the first time in 5 months :O yesh shocking isn't it considering how much I rant about swimming. I went to the YMCA for the first time today and their pool wasn't as dirty as i heard its supposed to be but it sure smelled like an indoor pool :[ but at least it was heated :D I'm relieved that I can still swim all the 4 strokes although my endurance and technique probably wont' be polished for another month or so :/ It was really kool seeing my friend Rachel there tho. I haven't seen her since the creek meet last year.

Backtracking now. Yesterday I celebrated Chinese year with my dad's side of the family in Salinas. I got demoted to the "kiddie table" again and this time it wasn't even a table! It was a giant flower pot with some piece of card board or something like that put on top of it xD Plus I got all the mismatched untensils and plates cuz 13 ppl attended but the china we used was for 12 x___x talking about 1 step forward and 2 steps back.

Thats all for now 3 days till Cold play and swim tryouts :O I'm so excited! x3 <3 corky

4 days till tryouts

2006-01-28T08:30:48Z

:D im getting giddier by the day! omg swim team tryouts are in 4 days!!! im superduper excited! Plus we're having cuts this year! thank goodness! this year the team wont' be hauling around an extra surplus of 50 people or so. Tryouts start on wednesday and i dont' really know how long they'll last nor do I really care. Guy and girls are split for tryouts which isn't to kool but it makes sense, but at least it seems like varsity will be with varsity and jv with jv like it should be. :] Our coaches are offically Marissa and Greg Savage, and yes Mr. Savage knows nothing about coaching a swim team :/ Well at least Marissa's the girl's coach and has experience :] I'll keep this short I guess I'll be hitting the pool for the first time in 5 months on sunday :D im super duper excited about that too. Plus i've got the coldplay concert on wed in addition to swim team tryouts! Way to much excitement in one day! :D <3 corky

All work and no swimming makes me a dull girl

2006-01-24T06:59:08Z

Well I now know the offical truth about swim team and frankly I don't like it one bit. This so stupid and our stubborness with matt is coming back to bite us in the butt triple time! First Matt moves us into A league, then all the coaches, abandon us, and finally because of lousy attitudes with Matt last year the A.D. decided that the coaches will be able to handle the team better split! HONESTLY! what varsity team gets split up... this is wrong on so many levels, but I'm not in the mood to point fingers right now...Well the offical meeting's tomorrow after now and HOPEFULLY this can be resolved before varsity gets ugly. x___x PLUS we may not get parkas this year thanks to a bunch of stupid monkey's that stole half the parkas last year. Thanks a lot guys, cramped up muscles when we're in A league thats the stupidest thing ever. ;-; I'm worried cuz I dont' think I see CCS in our future :[

Back tracking to the 21st :] I got to hang out for four whole hours at Katie's house. I'm lucky she didnt' murder me when I showed her the shoes I was "wearing" to winterball. Yea it wasn't a good idea to bring my vans xD After I barely escaped the wrath of death on the staircase Mandy Pandy and April came over :D and we all got ready for winterball. I'm not gonna talk about winterball itself in detail, but to sum it up, there wasn't enough people, the DJ was really lousy, and I got caught in a very arkward situation by my PE teacher -___-'. But in the end it was a lot of fun! :D I'm sad I didnt' get to hang out with katie, mandy, and april afterwards tho :[

But yea thats all for now and i'm done rambling and I hope this swim thing resolves itself :/ <3 corky

Oh the PAIN!

2006-01-14T23:59:19Z

Alrighty friday the 13th HAHA. u got the last laugh... Things were kool up until about 11 last nite. I went to Carolyn's birthday party at Valco's rink to play broom hockey. I think i pulled something in my leg slipping around in my shoes on the ice. x___x plus my legs, lower, back and shoulders are sore now. -___- On the plus side, Carolyn gets to see could play now :]

In addition to this pain in my body some stupid pigeon broke into our house. The dumb dumb pecked through the roof and got stuck inside of the walls. -___- It's woken me up on 2 occasions and its so annoying i couldnt' sleep. Stupid lil bludger. Anyways it even pecked a hole in a room in our house and my parents got really pissed off, so they ended up cutting the bird out of the house after 2 days. I REALLY loathe pigeons now. Next time one wakes me up oh its REALLy gonna get it >:O

I'm so stoked! swim team starts up in like 2 weeks! :D assuming the new coaches get their acts together...but all i have to say is that if they dare to even try and split up varsity, hell is gonna freeze over >:O Starting next week i'll basically be using lifeguard training as my conditioning for swim team x] that is assuming i don't kill myself and I pass the class, which im hoping i do *crossing fingers*
Then of course winterball's in like 2 weeks too! yay! im so excited :]next month should prove interesting. thats all for now. <3 corky

Christmas was pretty uneventful this year. Strangely I managed to sleep through the majority of it. Didn't wake up until 8 this year and only stayed awake for an hour to unwrap presents. Then went back to bed at 9 only to wake up again at 3. I'm still shocked how few people came over for christmas dinner this year. Everyone got sick this year, so only my grandpa, aunt, and Matthew Religioso came over haha. Then around 10 i left to sleep over at katie's house.
I didn't get a wink of sleep not that it really mattered cuz we were supposed to wake up at 5 in the morning anyways. Which I will add in is just flat out crazy cuz i dont' even wake up that early for swim meets. So then we had a LONG drive up to tahoe, which i slept through fortunately because we hit a HUGE detour and took over 6 hours to get to tahoe. I'm not gonna talk to much about my lousy snowboarding skills except, katie i hope you're happy, cuz im now INCREDIBLY sore. Plus i don't recommend that anyone tries to remember how to snowboard while on the intermediate slopes x__x. I'm tired and sore so that's all for now <3 corky

OMG!

i really must say that its nothing short of a miracle! I've sucessfully created cookies :] sure they're a slighty deformed but once they're in your mouth pssh what do it REALLy matter?

So yea life guard training in a month and i've doom virtually nothing x/ but erm i can fail with style im sure xD BUT if i do it'll all be worth it cuz i'll be in shape for the swim season :]. I'm really looking forward to this season cuz this is the last yr we have jamie and the last yr before nicole lucia and all the crazy fast freshies take over xD. Unfortuntely matt ditched us *shakes fist* and we're probably gonna end up with a coach fresh off the street. Which means we're just flat out screwed cuz we're in A league now, no thanks to somebody *cough cough matt cough*. But I guess its okie cuz i'll always have PR to look forward too :] PR Pride forever! :D i <3 all my flying fishies <3
My only other complaint is that my dream winter ball dress just went off same exactly 21 hrs and 32 minutes ago... and i really dont' know wut i'm gonna do for winterball now xD. yesh i do realize im like 2 months off but with my big swimmer shoulders i should worry. ;-; well thats all for now :/ and u have just completed my first LJ blog thingie ever! even though i've had this thing for like 4 months...AHA. <3 corky
