(no subject)
This week is my fourth week of swimming, and I've actually improved quite a bit. I can do flip turns and I can swim for quite a while without getting too tired. Yay me! The swim team had a Spaghetti feed today after practice (we have a meet tomorrow) and it was hosted at my house. We were going to eat outside, I had set up the tables and chairs, there were cool tiki torches/citronella oil burners set up, and then as soon as everyone arrived it started to rain. Phooey. Oh well, we ate inside, it was fun, and the evening was a success.
I'm reading The God of Small Things, and I'm having a hard time getting into it. Has anyone reading this ever read that book? Because even though I plan on finishing it, I want to know whetther I should expect it to get better or not. I'm only about 45 pages in, so I'm not too far, but whatever...I can only read about 5 pages before falling asleep (granted, I wait until around 11:30 to read).
And one last note: I need to join some school clubs or something, because I don't want this year to be like last year, where all I do is sit around all day after school (except our fun horseback riding jaunts and stuff, Thea). I think I'll join the French Club. I know one person whose French Club went to France, and heck - I'd be satisfied with a trip to a French restaurant or bakery in Seattle or something.
