 I wanted to go somewhere where I felt challenged. For me that was just what Berkeley was. My Tuesdays and Thursdays we go 6 to 8 o'clock in the morning. I have to get up around 5.15 and then I have 3 hour and a half long classes back to back after that and then I'm back at Haas for weights at 12.45. Then we swim again until 3.30. Then I go home and I have all my homework to do for the day. There's a lot to handle but if you do have that time management and you just are really prepared with things you know you have to get done and making sure you're getting done the things that need to get done then it's very much doable. I've been swimming for 15 years and I still it's just as hard to keep me out of the water now as it was when I was 4. It's a time where I can just either sort out all my thoughts and spend 2 hours at a workout planning what homework I have to do that night and what I have going on in the weekend or it's a time where I can just totally shut off and not think about anything and know that all I have to do in that moment is swim. This is my last year swimming collegiately. I'm still going to be here. I'm still going to be training with the team. I just won't actually be competing for the team collegiately but still live here. I'll still go to school here. I'm absolutely 110% set on getting my degree so I'll still be taking classes. I'm learning so much. Halfway through my second semester freshman year definitely decided that psychology was the thing that interested me the most and I would like to minor in education because I would love to be a young elementary school teacher preferably kindergarten and maybe special education. I 100% will do whatever I can do to get that diploma.
