We will start on Saturday... I had invitational swim meets. Saturday was Ponderosa (The best invitational meet) I had to be at a school that was around 30 minutes away at 11 so it wasn't too bad. Our relay came in 11th which was good because we were supposed to get 16th (Last) of course we only got 11th because 5 teams didn't show. :P
I went home around 4 PM and crashed. then played some Riviera: The Promised Land. Sunday was a different story. I had to be at Red, White,and Blue (that's what it is called but the only things are Red and Blue. Red being the slower division of the 2) at 7 AM. So in other words alarm was set for around 5:30 AM. We got there just in time to warm up. The meet was supposed to go until around 6:30 PM (I can see you thinking now 7- 6:30... O **** that's half a day), luckily someone brounght an Xbox with Halo 2 and Soul Calibur 2. My 1st event was the 100 Free (readers of previous entries know that's 4 laps). I was in the Red division with a seed time of 1:03 (1 minute not hour). I was supposed to get 12th place and I took some time off and got 10th. I had a long break and a lot of Halo playing. Flirted some, listened to iPod some, a little of everything... Next was my 50 Free, again in Red division and seeded 7th. On the relay on Saturday I had swam a 27.12. If I swam this time again I had a good chance of winning since the top time was a low 28 and my official time was a 28.74. I swam a 27.50 and got 4th and the 3rd place guy beat me by .12 of a second. The 2nd place guy beat me by .52 of a second so I was pissed. Just a little though. Now I had an even longer wait then before so I went and grabbed a Wendy's for lunch (15 nuggets and a medium Frostie for $5.63, hell yes). I then played some Soul Calibur 2 and went on a tear with Talim. 14 wins in a row. Then some dude that was talking ****, who I had beaten twice before, decided to be Nightmare and choose a small area... I had him down to the point where I could blow on him to win and I was knocked of the stage by some freak accident. Then he went cheap on me using the same long range attack over and over again... In life he is smaller then me (which is sad cause I'm 5"11 at 125lbs) so he didn't talk too much when I stood up. 8)
My next event was 50 backstroke. This time I was in Blue (faster of the 2). I was seeded 11th and I came in 8th. I took off 2.5 seconds and my time was 32 seconds flat. Our free relay was supposed to get 4th but we ended up getting 2nd by a touch. Lost by a little, but still good considering it was 2nd. Out of all the 15-18 year old boys our team had the highest point total. All 5 of us contributed and rose to the challenge. (Good job Ernesto, Jeff, Nick, Pete, and Me). We almost won the overall 15-18 (Boys and girls) age group point total. We lost that by 24 and we didn't have any girls. We went out and had ice cream afterwards to celebrate. Today on the 4th I went to the racetrack with my family (Horseracing that is) I lost around $4. I almost made $70 on one race but I was off on the Quinella (ask your parents). There was a fireworks show afterwords that was great to watch. Still playing Riviera: The Promised Land, wish GS would hurry and review it and get some recent walkthroughs up. Time to go post some more. :) Later.
