Pool

level in your sport is goal setting. And at first i didn’t believe it, i thought the only way to get better is just by training. Well i was clearly wrong when i didn’t make state the state cut, When the next season started, and when i walked on the pool deck on the whiteboard there were four simple words, “ Welcome to the Grind”. This was a cold monday morning it was 4.30 in the morning, Today was the first day of practice.…

It was a warm and sunny day. Then, all of a sudden, CRASH! I had fallen into a ring of rocks around the pool. The next thing I know, my older sister is panicking and rushing me inside the house. I was six years old and in the first grade at Eisenhower Elementary. It was March and the weekend had finally come. My sister and I could not wait to go swimming in our backyard. So, on an early Saturday morning, my older sister, Titania, had allowed us to swimming. The weather was perfect and I…

facilitate or ease the interaction between caller and the prospective donor. Going back to my visit to the Phonathon, I was able to witness two instances that required different levels of “reconstruction of indemnity.” Same caller, two different pools of alums. Each of the calls required a different level of adjustment of personality, allowing me the possibility to clearly discern some key component of the performance of identities. The first call was to a young man, who graduated form Trinity…

on fighting. She’s coming closer to the end and can see the finish. Pushing, kicking, hardly breathing, and trying as fast as she can to get there. Then finally, as though it had taken 100 years, she hits the wall. Whitney pulls herself out of the pool and her friends and family rush to meet her. They all give her a big hug and tell her about how well she did, and how proud of her they are. She smiles and tells her teammates good job. As she walks back to the bleachers her friends tell her, “You…

I’ve always been a strong swimmer; I’ve always been determined and a believer, but I can't say I had ever thought about winning state. I was twelve years old in the summer of 2015, which turned out to be one of the most important and eventful summers of my life. I woke up on Thursday morning at 6:00, ready to start the first day of my state meet. The meet would take place at the Walter Schroeder Aquatic Center in Brown Deer, Wisconsin; lasting a full four days, starting on Thursday and ending…

them, and also drive them in water. For the beginning few months we just drove the sphero s around and got to know how they worked. But now were getting to the end of the year so we decided that we are going to use the sphero s to race in a kitty pool that our class won from an achevie 3000 contest. Our class paired up in teams of 2-3 for the race. I was so exited for this race. After all of the teams were settled my and my partner new that we had to come up with an idea that…

said. “Yeah, you’re right. I’m going to go inside and get that other jumbo pack of hot dogs.” When she went inside, I counted twenty-six people partying in the backyard. Eight people were in the pool, and the rest were mingling around the pool and the food table. While people ate, drank, and splashed in the pool, I hung out with Shay most of the evening. She showed me how to mix music and even let me pick the songs she would play next. I liked her; she was pretty cool. I would…

feel very lonely, almost anxious. The focal point seems to be the center of the room, more so the pool table and the waiter. The waiter stands out more than anything else because of his cream and yellow under toned outfit. The reason he stands out so much is because the walls are almost florescent red, the lights are this mac and cheese yellow, and in various places the most prevalent being the pool table is a puke green. So a cream colored object is bound to stand out and look almost as though…

the busiest day of the week at the pool and the day had started off normally enough, although working as a lifeguard means things were bound to get interesting. I was halfway through an hour shift which was about the last thing I wanted to do in a hundred degree weather on a sunny July afternoon. The sun was relentless and I could practically feel my skin blistering but nevertheless I had a job to do; one that required me to watch over the patrons in the pool and ensure their safety. It was…
