yesterday

my comments don't post b/c with all the comments on the main page i was having trouble following in order and who's was what and what they were refering to. so i figured that minus-ing mine would clear it up a bit for myself. easily confused these days. i'll put it back if it's annoying!

yesterday i swam for a mile straight. this tells you what crap the pool. i swam with a pull-buouy. i am not in great swimming shape and i swam the whole thing non-stop (except when the pull-buoy popped out) and did it in 25 minutes. i am so frustrated. i'll have to wear drag suits too and i guess do pushups to try to make it a better workout or this open water swim will kill me. i felt great though, which is positive. but i shouldn't, so that was negative. ha.

today was a tough day for me. finished renal (thank god) and moved on, but didn't feel good all afternoon, sat next to a guy who chained smoked for an hour, and i had trouble really concentrating. i guess the studying is catching up. i even went to bed early last night. but now kaplan isn't working so i can't do my nightly practice exams. i guess i'll just move ahead on tomorrow's stuff but it sucks b/c i really don't want to. but i have to b/c this goal is within my reach (at least i think it is) and if i get bummed out or lose focus, it won't happen. stay strong. stay strong. tomorrow's another day.

    Comments do get confusing. I mainly use the combined page just to see if people have been writing, then go to everyone's one by one!

    So are you saying it's not that you are a 5-star swimmer, but that you're pool doesn't have any resistance so you need the pull-buoy to make it hard?

    You sound like you need a hug.

    OK, that's supposed to be a head and legs, but I think blogger eliminates useless spaces. You get the idea...

    Foxy Kate, woo!
