must...get...more...posts!

it's horrible - i've only got one post for each day of the month! ;) must...add...more...LOL not really. just thought i'd post something other than my rather factual post earlier and give you something lighter to stomach. ;)

today was actually rather dull. i don't do much on thursdays. i usually have my latin teleconference call, but that got cancelled due to the fact that most of my classmates were on the march for life. *sigh* *wishes she could have gone too* oh well. such is life. i had to choose - march for life or TEC.

i still had swim practice. i made a rather odd request of my coach last week - i asked her to put me in the 500 yd. freestyle. i have not competed in this length of an event since i was pulled entirely out of butterfly and freestyle in october. the most that i have done is a 50. yes, 1/10 of this event. but i need something to push towards. a 50? pbbbt. even a 100 or a 200 isn't really what i want to be able to do. i want my events back - the 100 breaststroke, 50 free, 200 breaststroke, and 500 free are my favorite events. i never got pulled off the breaststroke, so that isn't really a problem for me. but free is my next best stroke, and i want to be able to swim it like i know i can. i've got the 50 back, now for the 500...i just don't want it to hurt to compete. so i'm going to get my free BACK before the next swim meet. it's a home meet the second saturday in february. and by then, i will OWN the 500! i WILL swim it and i will NOT have shoulder spasms throughout the entire event (like i did when i swam it in october :P). i WILL regain my strength, and be able to swim even better than before this whole mess!

anyway...;) i'm just a little determined to return my shoulders to normal. can't you tell?
