I really suggest you see the movie Soul Surfer. It's the story of this young woman who surfs and has an accident and loses one of her arms . The film is about how she learned that surf was not everything and to be thankful that she survived a shark attack . She though that she will never be able to surf and do all day stuff because her arm was amputated and she will never be able to accomplish her dreams of being a professional surfer. Even trough all the difficulties, she accomplish her dreams to be a professional surfer. And she helped so many people to accomplish their dreams no matter their disability or difficulty it's all possible
This has to be one of my favorite movies and I will never get tired of it. It inspires me a lot every time I see it because I'm in a sport and don't have a disability and sometimes I say I can not do something and I am rather negative when she was in worse circumstances and was positive most of the time. If you want a role model, and inspirational movie be this is the right movie.

Decisions
Being a swimmer is hard; I have practice every day, the school responsibilities, the time with my family and the time for me. Sometimes you want to quit because you think that you have too many things in your plate. But when the times are hard you got to show them that you are capable of all of it and more. It’s not going be easy but it’s not impossible. Our decisions in our future will affect us or help us, so make the right decision and never regret it.

Competitions
In the past weekend I had my second competitions of the season. The events that I had to compete in were the longest of all the events. The competition was held in the university of El Turabo in Caguas. The first day I swam 400 meter IM. The second day of competition was the 1500 meter freestyle. The third day of competition was the 800 meter freestyle, the 400 meter freestyle and the 800 meter freestyle relay. I worked really hard for this competition and it was a complete success for me and my team. I broke my personal record in some of my events and I am very happy of it. I really hope I keep doing well in competitions but I have to work hard for it.

Work Hard
If you want something you have to work hard for it; because nothing is impossible in this life. I want to be a good swimmer and get a scholarship to get in a good university but I have to work hard to get it. First of all I have to get good grades and I have to put all my effords in the practice; is all or nothing. I have to be responsable with my things in school and spare my time between school, swimming practice, being with friends and family and some time for myself. I practice 6 days a week, if I want something I have to work hard don't I?

Hey!
Here I will publish my swimming experiences as an athlete. But first let me tell you about my life as a swimmer. I have been swimming since I was 11 years thanks to my mother who was the one to register me in the classes. And still here I am going to the pool everyday from Monday to Friday every afternoon. I begin the competitions the same year I begin with the classes. I had succeeded by going step by step, working hard and making the right decision for best of my future. That's why I had to change team, this one is the best seriously, but sometimes we have to make difficult decisions for the best of our future. The practices are hard but at the end it worth the effort, so here I am preparing myself for the season. See ya'!
