Alumni Meet was yesterday and it was fun like always. Just mostly messing around under the pretense that we are actually racing. Anyways, by about halfway through Kim called everyone, alumni and current swimmers over to a bench. It was a bench dedication to a four year swimmer, two time team captain who graduated in 1999, who had died in early ( Read more... )

I decided to come up here early to get a jump start on swimming. I was really afraid to do it cause Kim is really serious about making cuts for the team this year and crap. But so far its probably been my best decision of the year. I dunno what happened exactly but I'm kicking some ass in practice. I'm used to that in Cleveland but in Santa ( Read more... )

Man, Riding a bike is a trip. Haha pun intended there. But seriously. Second time out riding today and I ventured onto some more populated streets and stuff. Its just so different to ride a bike and not be like protected by a huge steel cage. Plus its awfully hard trying to keep up with traffic where the speed limit is like 45+ on residentials ( Read more... )

I wish I had the resources to just learn. I love learning, I think its one of the things that I'm the best at. Acting is harder for me, as in putting what I learn to action. But the actually learning part I love and I'm fairly good at. Theres so much I want to do. Yeah I wanna be a psychologist, but thats something that I've more or less had ( Read more... )

It sounds like Daft Punk it is definately not them. any help in finding the video or song is ( Read more... )

Funny how I post more during summer then during the school year, I thought summer is supposed to be the time of no troubles ( Read more... )

I got a feeling that this summer won't be that great. I don't really care, I accept that my life is up in Santa Cruz now. Last summer I spent the whole time trying to make plans with people and driving back and forth from the valley. I'm sorta over that now, I still wanna hang out but honestly people can come out here, I think I'm worth it. So ( Read more... )

I realized just a few days ago that my life is finally changed. Driving randomly around Santa Cruz I just had a revelation that I would never really live at home anymore. I have 2 more years of undergrad then 4 more of grad school, then I'll start a career. Seeing my family is going to be a sort of occasion now, not a normal day to day thing. ( Read more... )

Gah, its annoying that I missed like 3 questions on a test because I wasn't feeling good one day and decided to skip class. Also that our teacher decides to only post slides online, and we have no book to study from, so basically if you think you understand the slide but don't, your screwed.

Last night was swim banquet. First of all, a lot of fun, we had a gift exchange and some of the stories and presents that come out of it are hilarious. We also had a video which was probably the most i've laughed in a long time ( Read more... )
