My Sister's Birthday

Today is my sister's birthday. She is turning nine years old. She sometimes acts like she is three but other time she is alright. She is always lying to my parents about something that I DIDN'T do, but I still get into trouble. She makes me so mad sometimes because if I try to do that I would get into trouble for lying. She is just a pest. For her birthday she got to pick out her own pair of Ugg boots and a bunch of clothes. She is spoiled all the time. She is the youngest so she gets a lot of the attention. She is in third grade so for school she brought some fruit cups because of the healthy food program and was so excited that she dropped a bunch of them. It made this huge mess and of course, I had to pick it up. So, I guess that all I can say on her birthday is, "Happy Birthday!" and see what she is going to do next -- the unpredictable.

Silence

Silence is the time to get work done. It is the time where you can think without getting distracted by the constant rush of your everyday life. It's the time that you won't get distracted by your pesky brother or sister. It's just you and nothing else. Silence is the best because that's when I get everything accomplished. If it is noisy, you can't concentrate.  Noise also means big groups of people which sometimes is frightening to some people. Noise is the time to be social and silence it the time to get things accomplished. Without silence, I wouldn't know how to concentrate to get anything done. Also, silence means time to sleep which is the best. One extra hour of sleep a day would make my day a whole lot better. Silence is time to yourself and whatever you want to do; whether it is music, homework, or even reading a book. Silence is better because you are around noise all day long in school and just a couple of hours after school of silence is when I get everything done.

Swimming in Faribuilt is great!

I swim three days a week up in Faribuilt with 2 of my friends. We are just swimming up there to get some training in before the boys swim season starts in the winter around the end of November. The coach up there is so great. I feel like I can go there and get the help that I'm needing while still getting a great workout which is really important. The coach is always commenting on what we need to work on and what we are doing a great job on. Also, it is so relaxing to forget about school work for a few hours to go and swim. I like to work hard and do my best and the coach pushes us to do just that. Swimming is kind of a dying sport in Albert Lea so us as the current swim team are trying to get a few more people to join. And it would be cool if anyone else would want to come up to Faribuilt to get a few yards in before the season starts. This is why swimming in Faribuilt is such a great opportunity.

Friendship

I have never really stopped to think about how lucky we are to have friends. Without them you would never have an accountability partner to always be there when you are down. Just think how lucky you are. When you enter your first few days of middle school, your fate is sealed whether you are the jock, prep, nerd, etc. and you can't break those groups or you will be considered stupid. Kids with disabilities don't even have a chance because they don't "fit in" which is so sad because just someone to talk to can make their day a whole lot better. So when I am sitting here typing this I just am thinking about how lucky each person is to have a friend. Everyone just takes friends for granted and it is very hard to find someone that you can trust and rely on. You don't have to have a ton of friends to be cool, all that matters is that you have friends that you can count on. So I guess that this is my little blurb about friendship.

About me and my blog.

My name is Corbin Schultz if you don't already know. I am a big swimmer. Boys swim team is a winter sport that starts around the end of November. But I'm still swimming right now up in Faribuilt three times a week with a couple of my friends. Swimming is the only sport that I am in so I guess that I take it pretty seriously and I'm pretty competitive. Also, I'm in choir and show choir (forcefully by my parents). So right now my life is pretty busy with swimming and extracurricular activities. My blog's title, "Crazy swimming life" I guess just means that I have a crazy life right now and swimming involves most of my time right now. It's kind of a stupid title but that's all I could come up with at the moment. So I guess this is my blog introduction. I have never blogged before so I don't know if I'm posting something stupid of doing something wrong.
