Time trials again today, this time with 50 butterfly. I got a :38.56, which isn't too bad considering I've never done a time trial for fly before. My goggles were sort of fine too - a little water got in them, but at least they stayed on.

In the month of January I swam 32,675 yards/18.52 miles.

I think I'm right on track for my 100 miles :)

Soo... We had time trials again today, and you know what? My goggles didn't come off!! It was SO exciting! I didn't even care that we did 16 100s on the 1:50 before. They didn't come off! And I beat my best time in high school ( Read more... )

Soo... We did more timetrials today, and I decided to do the 100 breast, and you know what? My goggles came off. Again. I don't know what's wrong with me, I used to be able to dive in just fine. It's something that I really, really need to work on ( Read more... )

Gotta love the puffy sleeves on the guys. And you know what? I want my hair braided in some of the elaborate styles that they pulled off in this movie! They look really cool! But anyways... This movie was intense!! My gosh! You can't always get what you want, and sometimes when you do, you don't want it anymore! Poor girl had to find out the hard ( Read more... )

You know, I never realized how big Scarlett Johansson's lips were. Was this movie based on a true story? Because if they came up with this by just looking at the painting, then kudos to them. This movie was really good, and not at all boring like most biography movies are. It almost seemed too short in a way, like I want to know what happened to ( Read more... )

Today's practice was exhausting. Completely and totally exhausting. I was shaking by the time we got out of the pool ( Read more... )

I think that this movie was meant to be watched by people under the influence of something. Alcohol, marajuana, shrooms - take your pick. Or someone who really loves The Beatles. The voices and singing were great, but the interpretation of the story was a little weird. But the appearance by Eddie Izzard, my gosh! I love him! It was very exciting to ( Read more... )

Man, I wish I could have seen this in theaters! It was really, really good! Kind of reminded me of iRobot - just without the robots or futuristic approach. A lot of action and suspense and people dying. I'm not entirely sure that a computer would be smart enough to do everything that happened in this movie but hey, you never know ( Read more... )

Pretty good, pretty good. Although I wish that the main girl character would have put the damn box down! And why didn't an underground city invest in some candles instead of just relying on electricity provided by a p.o.s. generator? After the first blackout I would have found a way to start making candles, jeez! It's the smart thing to do. And why ( Read more... )

Very cute. Definitely more of a kids movie or one for immature adults. I don't know how else to categorize a semi CGI-ed bearded dragon that makes funny noises. It seemed kinda cliche at the end. In other news... Are you a borderline agoraphobiac? Just find a little girl through email who happens to be all alone on an island and go adventure out to ( Read more... )
