It’s very hot in this room. Not a single noise if nobody is talking; it’s very peaceful. Above are thick concrete bleachers; which will soon hold a lot of people. The crystal blue water is so magistical, but very cold once you get in! My heart is beating very fast now, and I’m nervous. Today is the day, after so many practices, and hardships, I’m finally ready. The team and I get everything ready for tonight. We are up against 3 other schools, our toughest opponents. Everybody is ready to beat the other teams and has the desire to. We are ready. First event: 200 yard backstroke. Our best backstrokers out there, defeating the other teams.

Luckily in the second shooting nobody was injured. Once everybody was outside we got some people in unlocked cars and on the other team’s buses. Everybody was safe, I blacked out shortly sitting down on the Heritage hills
