A Provincials!!!!




CLUNKS!!! That means Crazy Lauran Unleashed New Killer Somersaults!! The reason for that is:


I was in Saskatoon over the weekend for a swim meet and when I was doing my 100m Backstroke...I well... I forgot my flag count and I hit the wall five or six times with my legs, arms, butt and head! The rest of my swims were pretty good, I got 4th in my 200m Breaststroke and 6th in my 100m I.M.. Altogether my favorite race was 100m Freestyle. I got second because one of the girls was faster than me by three seconds!!!! I was soooooo close to getting gold but at least I got silver!!!

Buds Who Play Basketball!!!


Basketball. Friends. I wonder do they go well together?? Sometimes.... when Lexy, Caisia, Laera, Maddie and Cortni play basketball, it gets really hectic! Sometimes I wish I played to but with swimming, my shoulders and the way I play basketball....well that won't work!!!!! So, sometimes I'm a loner on the playground........

The Night with Jay and Tyra


"Let's play make-up!!!" Oy Vay!!! That's all I heard Friday Night, while babysitting. It was sorta a last minute job. Joyce had to go to her sleepover in her school gym for volleyball. So, I went to go over to my dad to ask him for some money for a snack after swimming, as soon as I got there Sabine asked me to babysit. So... I said: sure!!! And that's how I ended up with Jay and Tyra on my Friday night!! Hey, at least I got paid $20.00!!

SkAtInG!!


Music and Skating. Now that sounds like fun! Through school we have been going skating, sure my skates cut my legs, I get helmet hair, and the rink smells bad, but it's fun. The only parts that I really do not like are it's cold, we have to walk to the rink and I keep forgetting I have my skate guards on when I step onto the ice!!! Now as you can tell, I'm a really klutz.

Have fun skating!!

Libby and Lauran


Alright on the weekend, my friend Libby and I spent ALL of Saturday together. At first, because everyone else had to go to the weight room orientation, Libby and I had the WHOLE base pool to ourselves. We wanted to use just one out of the five lanes, but Mika wouldn't let us.... After we swam and fooled around, I went to Libby's house and we ate pita's. Then she changed for Basketball and I talked to her mom. After talking for a while we went to Lib's basketball game. She won, scored half the points and totally impressed me. She's such a good little player.

Later that day at about..... 7:20pm, Libby and I went to Paul Blart Mall Cop. It was SO Funny!!! I think I'll go to see it again sometime.

Snow......


Snow. What is wrong with it?? I think it hates me.... no.... well..... yeah. Whenever I'm driving with someone, somewhere there's always a blizzard, snowstorm or it's doing something to drive me insane. Why me??? Does it have to snow in winter???? I must be insane to think that!! What do you think????

Change in Plans and My Results!!




Okay, are you ready for it?!?! I swam on the weekend and I did really good. My time was 3:05.22! The best time was 2:28.00 something. So mines a pretty decent time, at least I got an "AA" time!! That was my goal and I reached it!!
The only way I was aloud to go to this meet was if I did only one swim and if my shoulder wasn't killing me to the point I was balling but I did really good anyway!! It was an awesome meet! I stayed until 8:45pm in Regina with my friend Libby, even though I was done at 2:30pm and she was done at 6:30pm. We stayed and watched he brother Ryder play soccer. The score was 3-1!!!! It was so funny because Ryder was goalie so Libby and I sat behind the net saying:
"Hey Ryder! Whatcha doing on this fine day??" He just shook his head and laughed!!! Ha Ha Ha!!!

Oh well, I'm in Saskatoon next weekend from Friday night till Sunday night!! Yay!! BYE!!!

No Meets for 2 Months!!!!!!

It just got even worse..... My coach says that I can't go to swim meets because of the stupid shoulder problem I have!!! I totally hate it. I can't go to any of the meets I wanted to, and everyone else does!!! Especially because "A" Provincials are coming up, and I can't go. They're in 2 weeks! I wish that I was just able to go and get surgery, instead of all these ultrasounds. Ultrasounds are supposed to strengthen tissue and soothe the muscles. Well, right now we are only doing my right. LEFT IS LITERALLY KILLING ME!!!! McMaster says he wants to wait to see if the one feels better. Is he kidding???? I really wanted to just want to get both done!!

MAJOR SHOULDER ISSUES!!!!!


OUCH!!! That is all you can really here coming from me right now and for the past couple months. I went to Dr. G.R. McMaster's place.... By over using my shoulders I have developed Tendonosis in my Rotator Cuff!!! It gets really sore, so sore that surgery could be in my future. OUCH!!! I have gone for two massage treatments and one ultrasound treatment. The initial visit to the massage therapist really helped. I lasted two weeks!! The second didn't go to well. It didn't even last the day!! I got my ultrasound treatment on Friday. We are only starting on one shoulder.... the right! Then if it works then we'll do my left. But, my left shoulder is killing me right now!!!! Oy Vay!!! Now I have to go for Ultrasound twice a week!!!

Dancin' Around in the Gym at Christmas Time!!!







Well, the title says it all! We had our Christmas Dance the day before Christmas Break!! It was off the hook!! That's right, I said it OFF THE HOOK!!! They played So What, Womanizer, Whatever You Like and Love Story. Plus more REALLY good songs. The snowballs were kinda awkward... dancing with the guys in your classes. Now that was weird!! Oh well..... Chance and Thomas were the "FUN" police. Now that explains it all. Especially if you know who I'm talking about!!!




PS Before the dance we were on the laptop all day!!!!(morning?) And for lunch we got McDonald's!!!

Drunk with Soda and Potato Chips....


5...4...3...2...1... HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! Then toasts, kisses and hugs follow. That's what happened at Midnight on Wednesday and 12:01 am on Thursday. Problem was I think I drank a bit... no a lot of soda and kinda went crazy til about 11pm. Then I started eating potato chips.... It was all downhill from there.....


A different version is.... I was literally babysitting 10 kids on New Years Eve!!! They were all hyped on sugar (Parents were upstairs!) The one kid broke my sister's, friends, mom's dish. I just burst! I had a fit. I literally yelled!! I stormed up the stairs but as soon as I got into the room I was like:

" Oh my gosh.... Lynda, Sam broke the chip dish. He picked it up and it broke. It was an accident and all... but it's the one you said was your favorite!!!" His mom came downstairs and asked him what happened. They left about 3 hours later because it was REALLY late!

And I woke up the next day at 2pm!!!


Top That New Years....
