well... it's beena wild and crazy ride. an interesting oneto say the least.
another season came and gone but it isnt like any of the others... it was my LAST ONE! ... i guess... i'm happy i'm over... but i wish i could've domne better and already not even 2 days after my last time swimming formy team... ever... and i already wish that time could carry me back to sophomore year just so i could do it all over again. the things i felt today and last night at the last hance meet were things i havent felt... ever .... the emtion thatw as there... jhust thinking that that was my last meet... the last chance meet meant more than just another race to try to get a good time... for me it was a last chance for everything to soak uup every ounce of it. to show the love of this wondrful sport that has shaped me into the guy whos typing this right now. The things i felt at the dvison meet were amazing too... i must say... i didnt feel like it was the end at divisions.... but looking back on it... i rememebr soaking up every last minute of me yelling, crying out to and cheering on ym team mates. it was amazing. this entry is so pointless... but i guess the only thing i'm trying to get across... not to anyone reading this... but to myself... is that after today when we were just messing around playing polo... i realized i'm done... forever... i cleaned out my locker and looked at the door that had "The Distance Loker " written sloppily across the top and then undernieth is has 2 of the 4 members of the distance posse... and it said this "Jeff Smits '04 (Bubbles), Paul Pfaff '04 "Distance Master". then after i cleaned out my locker i almost religiously took down the same marker jeff and paul used to write their names 2 years ago, to write down "Josh williamson '06 (Big Willy) aka (Distance master #2). when i was done writiing that... i put the marker back up on the two hooks that it was on before. i looked at it and just stared and thats when it finally hit me... when i finally let it hit me... it's over... i then turned the locker over to the last member of the Distance Posse... Anthony Maceri... It's all up to him now... all in al i liked this year... i still was close witha lot of the guys... and i couldnt ask for much more just because we are so tight on that team. although... i will say there were nght when i came home form practice and i was pissed off and there was a time when i cried myself to bd this season. i have to say this seaosn i probably came the furthest... further than i;ve eer come before... time wise... not so much... strength wise... yeah! but weight wise... oh god weight wise... i got down to a weight i'd never thought i'd be... necause ill always be a naturally big guy... i got under 200 lbs.... 197... that was amazing... i am so amazed at how far a lot of people came this seaosn. so many guys got faster or got slimmer or just got stronger... i definitly think that rohloff scewed us over and we coulda done better had it been ,more fun and a little less hard work... but because of the lack of fun and excessive amount of work, we became freakin beasts... bu to say it one lst time... it's over! I'm done! FOREVER!
in all honesty i've been choked up for a good 5 hours now... this is probably harder tha graduaton will be... a lot harder
