What a day!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
Yesterday was one of these days where I seem to lose all control and behaved like a newbie. At 11 am, after a nice powernap, I woke up and I started my Asus laptop. I noticed several minor problems and I decided to reinstall. The Hard Drive died! There goes the long list of painful […]

Great Weekend!

Very relaxing and excellent food as usual! We went to check all the stores around the area and even in Paris. I could see my Lolita again. She cannot move much but the memory from the old time came back. When I took her out for a little walk, she grabbed a small piece of […]

Weekend near Paris!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
I am going home this weekend. Lots of good vietnamese dishes and my little dog, Lolita! After that I will have 20 days break to brush up on my exams. They will happen sometimes in the last week of May if my information is correct. 4 modules of 15 credit each! Annoying! The change to […]

Recovery
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
My body is cramps and injuries free now. My wrist was a bit twisted yesterday and I thought I might not be able to swim fast today but I recovered overnight which is nice. I tried my new trendy swimwear this morning and it was OKAY. I do not think they look as nice in […]

I picked up my new blue swimsuit this morning. It fits me perfectly. This is not the first time I buy from Speedo’s website so I know exactly what my size is. I’ll be able to show off tomorrow :). I also bought new hand paddles just so that I can use their rubber tube […]

Speedo

It’s been a year and I’ve decided to change my boring and serious black Speedo swimwear for a trendy blue racer with some special design features on it. I also bought a stylish blue/white silicon cap with special drawings. I ordered them yesterday, and with a bit of luck, they will be here on Thursday. […]

Short Night!

4 hours of sleep or less! The swim was excellent though. Only good and fast swimmers in my lane. Monday are usually quiet, less crowded than any other day of the week. I talked to Jod, a fellow who swims regularly. He’s very impressed with my 6 kms a day. That was his first question […]

Good Weather!

Quite unusual for rainy Manchester, the last few days were really good! I cannot wait for summer time next Sunday, the pool is completely over saturated. There are excellent swimmers joining though. The wind of change has come. Last week was perfect, this week seems less positive. The movie, Body of Lies was excellent but […]

Very Ordered!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
Nice swim with fast and ordered swimmers. A real pleasure! Some of them are now using me to improve their own speed. They align themselves behind or switch lanes simultaneously. I don’t like dumb idiots who just clog up the fast lane. No class today and the weather is fantastic! I might walk around and […]

Moving On!

We went skiing with Dave M and Iris, a girl from Holland. An hour and half of good fun and it only cost us 14 GBP per person. Indoor skiing isn’t too bad. I managed not to fall despite my weak legs. My skiing style is really crappy though. I cannot do parallel skiing yet […]
