"She's in love, and the world gets blurry
She makes mistakes, and she's in no hurry to grow up
'Cause grownups, they don't understand her
Well it's a big, big world out there, but she's not scared...
She finds hope in the strangest places
She reads her books, and she knows the faces
Of everyone that ever said she's alone
She knows every word to the saddest songs
And she sings along, though her friends all tell her
That she can't sing...
She's eighteen, much too young
To know what a kiss like that would mean
But her lips, they were no stranger to the touch
And she likes it way too much."

"What happened today?"

I'd just like to take a moment to announce that our high school swim team is still undefeated.

And today, we became county champions.

The closest competitor was 40 points below us.

It was AWESOME.

I wasn't swimming (didn't qualify this year) but it was possibly the most intense, nerve-racking meet I've ever attended. And we WON!

So after we went out to dinner, we all took nice naps and then had a bonfire/party. And every time we'd start lapsing into normal conversation that had little to do with our win, one of the parents or our coach would lean out the back door and yell, "What happened today, girls?"

And their question would be met with a fierce "WE WON COUNTIES!!!" followed by much dancing and rejoicing.

I love my Lady Falcons :D Long live our memories from this amazing season...
