Well today just kind of started off as a slow day. My head was really pounding and I had a ton of stuff to do to catch up in school. Truthfully I couldn't stay focused all day because I really wanted a Shamrock Shake. Oh lord they are heaven in a cup. But after a day of watching another wrestling practice I had the pleasure of attending my first swim meet of the year.
It was against Montour and generally I was excited to see how the boys team of 4 would compete with what looked like a small army. Nothing against the girls, but I just know that they're going to win every time. So the meet just starts off with me and good old Tommy Forse as the lone student sections for the first few events. We share a few laugh's primarily because of a certain Montour swimmer. Let's just say he's the main reason for the title. God, he should have been wearing a girl's suit to conceal those bad boys. Aside from his hilarious physique, he gave us the biggest laugh after crashing head first into the wall during the 100 meter backstroke. He was hurting and I laughed, but I feel for the kid. I know what it's like to bash your head off a hard surface and I hope he isn't concussed and it ends his season. Jared came after the first intermission and was there with us for the rest of the event. We all chatted, shared a ton of laughs because of pretty much the same kid, and endured the epic boys 500 meter freestyle race. Watching paint dry was truly more exciting.
The meet ended and the boys suffered a defeat due to lack of numbers, but the girls scored yet another victory this year. I am very proud of our girls team this year. Them and hockey are the faces of West A sports this year, and they are doing a great job representing us. We said hello to our friends, congratulated them, talked to parents and were on our way. Tom, Jared, and I on the way to the van on our voyage to Enlow. I found it kind of ironic that the only 2 kids in the senior class without licenses bummed the same ride. We bumped some Mac Miller featuring my favorite line and the name of this blog 'White Boy Awesome' and made it to my home. That where this day takes me to this very moment.
To rate this day as a whole, I'd give it an 8 primarily because of hanging out with Tom and Jared at this meet. As I've said before on this, these are two kids that I greatly respect and am incredibly glad I am friends with them. Jared is the kind of kid that you can literally hold a conversation with about anything because he is wise a loads of the information I love. I swear we could sit down and talk about Pokemon for at least 2 hours with ease coming up with the perfect team, favorite moves, series, gym leaders, etc. Tom is a kid I've just known forever and aside from getting a ride from him, I could count on him for anything. He is the person that would have anyone's back if he knew you had his. He loves all his friends and know that we love him back. A true and ideal person with a great perspective on life. Much better than mine in my own opinion.
Well the three readers I have, I'm glad you could hang on through this one with me. Got some opinions on people out, summarized my day, and gave you a little swim meet anecdote. Hope you all enjoyed. Stay safe and healthy and i love you all.
