My name is Angie. I live for the moments in life I can't describe with words. I still try anyways. Writing is my passion, and my life revolves around swimming. I live with happiness and love, and treat people only the way I want to be treated. This blog is my diary, an open journal of my secrets. Words heal me, and I only hope mine can do that for you one day.
Ups & downs
I didn’t get best times today in my two events. As disappointing as that is in the moment, I know I swam the same two events three times this weekend and swam my heart out every damn time. I got best times in both events this weekend at some point, so maybe I shouldn’t be so upset. I’m just the type of person who will never be satisfied gaining time or not improving.But, I’m not that psycho who cries after events because she gained time, I keep a poker face and just think about it later. I know I can’t get better every single race I swim. If it was that easy, there would be no reward and no feeling of hard work paying off. There wouldn’t be anything to push you to work harder in practice.
I’m not exactly happy with my performance this weekend, I’m just kind of in the middle about it. I’m so happy I dropped time in the 50 free, but the 100 fly just killed me. This just means I need to work even harder. This is only the beginning of what I’m going to do later on.
I did all I could this weekend and swam every race with passion and strength, and I know that makes me a powerful swimmer despite my times.
