Swimming and Burning

I am normally a very calm person. I don't have outbursts of anger. It takes a lot to make me angry, but I am angry right now. I have been in swim team for 10 years. I used to swim a lot. Then my dad got a new job & we were supposed to move. We didn't want to pay for swim team then move during the season. A year later, we still haven't moved (or done swim team). My parents decided to let us do summer swim team because we haven't swam in a year.

A couple of weeks ago they said we could do swim team. Me and my sister were so excited. We went to the team meeting. We got the papers filled out. We signed them. Our mom signed them. We tried to get our dad to sign them. Tonight, he decided we cant do swim team because we will be gone for over half of it.

The first practice is tomorrow morning. They told us we can't do swim team tonight. This is ridiculous! They couldn't tell us before!? All of us knew we would be gone, but they still said we could go. Then they wait until the night before the first practice to tell us!?

The one good thing about this is the reason we will miss swim team. We are doing summer training for OAFC. Awhile ago, I had to write a personal witness (if you want to read the final version, it is here). I emailed my personal witness in and I got in travel team! yay me! :) So, at least I get to do that.

I am now not as angry...hopefully I don't die of boredom this summer...but at least I have summer training and travel team...

Random note: I got another strange tan-line today. I played for band for memorial day. I sat outside and I got a weird sunburn on one arm. My sister keeps laughing at it...

Au revoir. Je m'en vais.
