Snow!

Hello! Sorry I haven't blogged recently I have been busy sledging! I went sledging all day Sunday and Monday, but not on Saturday as I was recovering from a nasty virus which I got on Thursday. My first session back was Tuesday night and it was really hard and I was really tired out after my sick bug. Also on Tuesday I had my 2nd HPV jab and I didn't faint!!! I was really glad that I didn't faint and hopefully I won't next time either! I also went Wednesday morning, Yesterday morning and last night. I found the mornings tiring but they were quiet as not many people go in the mornings but last night was quite hard. I still tried really hard even though I was tired and I did really well! I did 200m Fly for the first time and not only did we do 200m Fly but we did it twice with only 15 seconds rest in between and I led the lane! I was worn out afterwards and went to bed soon after I got home, well I have to go now so bye!

Hard Work

Hello! I am right now on Facetime with my best friend Lauren Fisher(lol, hey!) and also doing hw. Swimming was also not on this morning so I got another lie in. Last night I went training and it was hard but I trained really well and I enjoyed it. I dont know whether swimming is on in the morning and it might be cancelled on Friday which means I will be able to go to a party I am going to. I am going already but just later after swimming and I have had to turn down an offer of going round somebody's house beforehand, but swimming comes first! So bye for now!

Disspointment.

Hello! Today was my first day back at school but to be honest it didn't really feel like it! I spent my weekend at Bexley open meet in London. It was a hard weekend as it was my last chance to get a county time and unfortunately I didn't get it. I was disappointed and after my 50m breast I got really upset and I was crying a bit so I went and saw my mum up in the gallery, I just was getting really disappointed and annoyed because I wasn't getting any county times. On the Saturday Pete had told me that I need to be aggressive and that I need to be completely focused and at first I wasn't really and Pete told me off for that but from then on I really tried but I still wasn't getting any county times and I was getting really frustrated. I calmed Dow. And had to go and do my last race which was 100m IM, which I wasn't really up for but I still did it and tried hard,and I did well I was on PB. I went home really disappointed and getting up this morning and going swimming was really hard and I really wasn't up for it, but I went and it was a nice set. Pete said that I shouldn't worry if I don't get my time and I shouldn't be disheartened because I will get, my time will come. I do know that it will come but I am still a bit upset because everybody who I swimming with are all getting their county times and I am not so I am finding it hard getting up and swimming at 5.00 am because i just dont understand whats going wrong but I have to keep working hard and move on to my next open meet. Well until next time!

A new year.

Hello and happy new year! Wow the holiday has gone so fast! Let me update you on what's been happening since the last time I blogged. Well I went swimming the Friday after Christmas and I did really well, I lead the lane for some of the session, and I wore my drag shorts for the first time! The drag shorts were quite tiring as the cause drag in the water that slows you down, so you have to work extra hard, but I did like them although it was tiring! Then I missed Sunday because I was at QPR vs Liverpool. Then the next session was yesterday morning. It was ok but I had to stop twice because I felt really faint and sick. It could be because I am coming down with a bug that my little sister and brother have had, but I hope not as I have another open meet at the weekend in Bexley. Also last night was QPR vs Chelsea, and QPR won 1-0!!! We were all, especially my dad, over the moon! Then I also had training this morning, which went really well, like yesterday was quite quiet there were only 8 people and I only shared the lane with one other girl. It was a nice session and I worked hard, now that my swimming schedule is back to normal, so has my sleeping! Although that doesn't mean its not hard to get up in the mornings! Well I am back to bed now bye and a happy new year!
