Last "First Week of Classes"

Hello my dear lionesses! :) I'm very sorry I haven't been writing, these few days have been very hectic for me. First of all, I would like to thank you guys for coming out to my meet and cheered me on! It really meant a lot!!! I miss seeing you guys and being together for a whole day (even you Ariel :P ) Heather I'm sorry to hear about your sickness, I hope you get better ASAP! As a graduating senior, I am very happy to say that last Tuesday was my last first day of classes! WOOO!!! I'm only taking 3 classes/12 credits, which I know is nothing compared to Lindsey's 21, and now that I have settled down, I actually think I will have a good amount of time on my hands. I have 3 night classes and one during the day on Tuesday so my schedule is awesome! I had my last dual meet ever at George Washington this past Saturday where I got sick and I was not able to swim my last race :( On a good note, we won the meet by a lot so that made me feel somewhat better. I have 4 weeks of swimming left from this upcoming Saturday and I will be done! I will miss it terribly since it has been a HUGE part of my life ever since I was 4. Practices are still killing me every day, therefore I feel that it is my duty to find some time each day to settle down for a bit and just let everything be. I like to do that during the day for a few minutes, and right before I go to bed. I think those times work best for me because I really get to "enjoy" being with myself. I'm trying very hard to stay healthy. My girlfriend has pneumonia so I told her to stay away from me (just kidding) so I won't get sick a month before my biggest meet of the year. Many people around me got sick (either a cold or the flu) which had me concerned too, however, so far I haven't gotten sick (knock on wood). I think that is all for now, I'm looking forward to hearing more from you guys! Hope all is well! David
