Meets, Parties, and Plateaus

hmm, I went to a swim meet like 2 1/2 weeks ago (right?) but I swam like crap! I added about a total of 22 or 23 seconds, and I only swam 2 of my JO cuts. I was not happy with the results of that meet, but it was still a lot of fun. It was the first meet this whole season that I have not dropped major time, so my coach said that I was in for a bad meet. He also said that he thinks I have hit a plateau, and that every girl my age hits one, but I should just push through it and not get discouraged so that I can come out of it swimming even faster. :// Now, I must just push through and work hard, and apparently get better upper body strength. After the meet, we had a team party at my house! It was so so so so so fun, da bomb!!! Everyone on the gold squad came, plus some form the silver and one from the seniors! We watched lady in the water, it was weird but good. We also pigged out, a lot. Haha, 3 or 4 bags of popcorn, 2 bags of chips, LOTS of sodas, 5 pizzas, and COOKIES! Very fun.
