Unfortunately, I was unable to go on the SAISA Swimming Sports Exchange. I made the team, but my extended essay draft was due immediately after the trip and so I decided, with my parents, that I would be unable to manage both of those commitments. However, I persevered with the trainings, because I actually enjoy them. I find swimming training more rewarding than competition, and MUCH less stressful. My goal for the year now that the season is finished is to continue to try and swim at least once a week. This may not be possible at all times due to other SAISA's and academic commitments, so I will have to be flexible about this goal. However, whenver possible, I will stick to it.
An unexpected development!
My friends Anishka and Priyanka are participating in the after school activity Latin Dancing, and they asked me to come along. Dancing is not really something I have much experience, so this was really stepping outside of my comfort zone, but I decided to give it a try. I was not very good at it, but it was surprisingly good excercise and quite good fun. It's on Friday afternoons, so this may end up clashing with SAISA football (I'm planning to try out for the team), but I will keep going as long as there are no other clashes. My only goal is to reduce my self-consciousness about dancing, and try to improve my co-ordination!
