Wow, I've posted like everyday this week!

I have been nominated for student of the month in english for October... I personally am happy, but was just a little bit confused, I am not the poet or straight A 100% student or the one who teachers always seem to adore, but I am happy to feel all cool and stellar about it. I guess I made an impression, I thought I had made my lack of knowledge clear with all online things and all, but maybe not. Anyways, it really sounds like I am complaining, I really am happy though, I was just really surprised at first. It actually like kind of made my day today to find that out.

So the good news was the student of the month thing, oh and that I focused REALLY hard during swim today. I really was focused on a set of 2 500's on 8 minutes each, if you don't know what that means, it just means swimming a lot, but I am not sure how long it would usually take me to complete the set normally, but longer than that I assume. Anyways! So I kept track of the set alot better than I usually do, I usually forget and ask someone, but I kept track of everything and passed everyone it seemed like. I was doing pretty well, but I was so focused and some people wouldn't let me pass them and I was only thinking about where I was and breathing, that someone did a flip turn and kicked me in the face.

When he/she kicked me, it shocked me and my goggles came off and I was thrown off my wack I guess. I was suprised and my head hurt, but I really wanted to rest at the end of the set and I was at 350 or 400, so I put my goggles back on and started swimming as fast as I could again. Within the next 25 I passed most of the people who had passed me when I was recovering from the shock for a second, and I was about to pass one more person, but they wouldn't even move over a little or slow down! So I started to just swim around them, which was fine and dandy, but it was close to one of the walls (the same wall I had just been kicked on), so somehow I was kicked again! This kick hurt a LOT more though. my goggles came off again and I had a hard time breathing for a second, so I stopped on the wall to rest for a second so I could breath, but I still really, really, wanted to make the set with extra time, so after gasping for air and assuring the people behind me, who probably though I was crying, that I was okay, I started swimming just as hard.

I got to the other end again and did a flip turn only to realize everyone was getting out, so I stopped and got out too. When I stood up my head felt really light and airey, and I didn't feel like I could walk in a straight line, but I didn't want anyone to freak out, considering the last two days, so I just ignored it. I came home, still with a headache, looked in the mirror, and saw that I had like a green bruise on my eye. I really did look as bad as I felt, and still kind of feel.

So today has been great and painful, but right now I still have a killer headache, so I am going to go to bed early (for me, you all might go to bed at this time usually)
