Happy 4th of July! We're going to go see the fireworks later this evening which will be cool.
Okay, about swimming. I love it! I love my coach and I have a lot of friends on the team. The meets are a lot of fun too, although they are very long. They're usually on Thursdays, but sometimes on Tuesday like this week. This weeks was outdoors and nobody liked the pool at all. The walls were so high and you could barely get out of the pool. Also the walls were blue, so when you swam up to do your flip-turn, the wall kinda blended in with the water and you thought the wall was closer then it really was. And it was meters! Lately I've been swimming both relays and I swim breaststroke in the medely. I also swim the 100 IM and 50 breaststroke. My IM on Tuesday wasn't so good, but I dropped almost a second and a half on my breaststroke! My time was in meters so I don't know the exact yard time, but its 42. or 41. I was so happy!
We also get ribbons for every meet which is cool. We didn't win our last meet because the other team was so fast! I got second place in my relay, third in my breaststroke, and fith in my IM. I had fun even though we lost and my IM time wasn't so good. This week we have two meets! One on Tuesday and one on Thursday! I think it will be fun.
My brother's birthday was on Tuesday and he turned 11. He's not here though! Hee was at camp on his birthday and when he gets home tomorrow, we'll take him shopping so he can pick out the stuff he wants.
Bye!

HEY!!!!
It's been forever (again), since we have commented on each other's blogs. I remember when I was CrazyAboutMOnkeys, we used to comment each other all the time. Anyway, I am glad that you saw that I was online!
AS for "Burning Up", I do like the song, but I'm not sure that it's my favorite. I really like "A Little Bit Longer", because I love the end! And there is just something about that song that makes me like it! But I do like "Burning Up"! I didn't know that you like the jonas brothers. that's awesome! Who is your favorite? I like Nick, then Kevin, then Joe! LOL!

yeah~ I agree that not too many people like Kevin~ and it's kind-of sad. I don't like him the best, he's after Nick (to me), but I do think that he is just adorable (and he seems like one the of nicest guys in the universe! LOL!) I do think that Joe is cute and he is funny (and he has a good voice), but there is something about the other two that make me like THEM more. I know that I like Nick's voice more than Joe, and I have never really heard Kevin's voice~ but I bet if I would he would sound good too. I think that he probably has a good voice, just doesn't get to use it very much.
Oh, you should totally look up "A little bit longer" on youtube, or something! I think it's even out on Itunes! But it is a really good song.
I hope that we can start to comment on each other's blogs more too. I miss us commenting back and forth so much!
And here again, this is a long comment! LOL! When people get me started about the Jonas Brothers, I really can't stop! Thanks for starting me on it! LOL!
Much love,
Ashley
