Swimming and Dancing
Today was one of the first initiations into the swim team. We swam the channel connecting Lake Monitackwa (or whatever) to Lake Michigan. We started at one pier, dove in, swam the 50-100 yards across the freezing cold lake with the 2 foot waves, got out and stood on the other pier for a while. While over there we completed a few tradtions and did a cheer, then dove in and swam back. I think I froze my triceps on the way to, and shoulders on the way back.
Tomorrow, bright and early, is the camping trip. I don't know where we are going, but we are camping ON the beach in the wilderness. Sounds like a blast.
Tonight was the first meeting of the swing dance club. It was my first time actually doing swing dance, and I was told I am a natural (*hoorah!*). It is so much fun, I gave myself a blister and sore feet but I learned so much and had a blast. On my FIRST TIME, I learned the pendulum! (girl jumps, swings legs to one side, sits on your hip, repeat on other side, then straddles you, then you throw her up in the air and hold her there, way fun.) Katie: when I get home I will be able to dance with you! And MAYBE outshine you!
Dancing is a good excuse to put your arms around a very pretty girl, which seem to be in no short supply at Hope.
Ok, I have to get up at 7:15 tomorrow, so I will cease talking.
And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
Was the hardest part
And the strangest thing
Was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the strangest start
I could feel it go down
Bittersweet, I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the cloud
Oh and I
I wish that I could work it out
And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
You really broke my heart
And I tried to s i n g
But I couldn’t think of anything
And that was the hardest part
I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
You're a silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
Oh and I
I wonder what it’s all about
I wonder what it’s all about
Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do, it's just comes undone
And everything is torn apart
Oh and it’s the part
That’s the hardest part
Yeah that’s the hardest part
That’s the hardest part
