"Chlorine: The perfume that you never have to buy."

"Dedication is getting up at 5:30am for morning practice and then staying in the pool for 2 1/2 more hours after school."

"Excuses used by other sports:
-It's raining
-The field is too muddy
-We have to wax the floors
-It's too hot
-It's too cold
-Ripped my uniform
-Etc.

This is what happens to us if there's a change:
-Holiday=Doubles
-Rain...Who cares?
-If the pool's closed, we do dry land
-We're indoors, so it doesn't matter if it's hot or cold
-If you rip your suit, use it as a drag suit"

"You know you're a swimmer when...
1. You're always away on the weekends.
2. You have no social life.
3. You have your own separate drawer for all of your swim shirts.
4. You don't have time for other sports.
5. Your homework gets wet from being in your swim bag.
6. You have enough goggles and caps for the whole swim team.
7. It's normal to wear more than 1 suit.
8. Half your wardrobe is swimming related.
9. It's normal going to school smelling like chlorine.
10. Your main diet is pasta, gatorade, and power bars.
11. You can't tell you're sweating.
12. The worst thing to hear someone say is, "This set will be FUN!"
13. You sleep later in the school year than the summertime.
14. You spend more time at the pool then anywhere else.
15. Your shoulders pop all the time from Butterfly.
16. You have rings around your eyes unrelated to the amount you sleep you got.
17. Your friends don't even call you anymore because they know that you have no time to do anything.
18. When you talk about 'cuts', you don't mean injuries.
19. You forgot what chlorine smells like.
20. You have blisters on your feet from using the flippers too much.
21. Your feet are all banged up from hitting the wall on flip turns.
22. You can’t go two days without swimming.
23. You are obsessed with dolphins.
24. You have a line on your forehead from your swim cap.(when your done swimming)
25. You think a 30 second rest is a long time.
26. You have never experienced what they call an 'off season'."
