Conference

Here I am, one month removed from my last blog post sitting in a hotel bed about to spend the next few days swimming really fast.

If you have no idea what I’m talking about, I’ll enlighten you. I’m at conference, which is held at a pool in Gresham, Oregon this year. It is in a pool that is normally outdoors, and it is covered by a pressurized bubble to make it adaptable to the snow that is currently dumping down.

Crazy thing, so it hasn’t been snowing at all in the past month, other than a few fluffs here and there, and all the snow was melted. Well last night it dumped an entire foot in Spokane! There wasn’t too much bad weather on the way here, but there was a scary part where we were driving on a cliff and it was foggy, like in a movie.

Starting Spring term classes hasn’t been very exciting. I’m taking the gen ed Core class on worldviews, which is a pain in the butt. Chemistry has been simple, and my Biology teacher is funny and nice but he wants spot-on specificity on exams, which was irritating for the first one. I’m also in the Book of Revelation for my bible-lit class which has been very interesting, and it involves a lot of reading. Lastly, I’m taking a seminar for health professions, which meets once a week and features guest speakers from different health professions.

Obviously, swimming has been winding down and I am about to reach the climax of the year. I will be swimming the 200IM, 400IM, and 200 Fly, and I might time trial a few other events. You can follow live results here (http://www.lcpioneers.com/sports/swimdive/2010-11/NWC_championships/NWC_championship_page) . After this weekend I’ll have so much free time I won’t know what to do with myself! Except I’ll probably keep working out right away so it’s not like I’ll have a ton more free time or anything, but I will have a much more favorable bedtime. Kbye!
