update

There are a few things that have been going on around here recently.

• Swim practice started last week. The team looks promising, as everyone is capable of staying afloat on their own. Not a single swimmer is relying on the lane ropes for their survival.
• The first day of practice, we got locked out of the pool. It was super fun. Then a kid's arm popped out of its socket. Don't worry, we popped it right back in. Apparently it happens to him all the time. He's now our manager.
• I give my final exam on Friday, and then I'm FREE for Thanksgiving break.
• But then my break is interrupted Tuesday night for our first swim meet. Rotten timing.
• I am going to see the Warsaw Philharmonic on Friday night.
• We built egg-drop contraptions in my class this week. They were only allowed to use straws, rubber bands, and tape. We threw them off the top of the stadium. They were awesome.
• I started my Christmas shopping this week. I totally want to keep the present I bought Ashley.
