Thats a Wrap!!! (almost)

Ciao!
    School is out officially in 16 days (not that we are counting), and Senior Nationals is in one week! We cannot wait to be in sunny California for one last chance to show our stuff. Especially exciting is that this is going to be Senior Sharada's official last swim with her favorite Wheaties! 
    To take some stress off the end of the year, we have been having "fun" practices. A couple nights ago we did a "Midnight Madness" practice, where we had practice from 10pm-midnight. We shut the lights off and put pretty strobe lights in the pool and did our unders. Also today, we put on ridiculous suits and swam our team routine in groups. 
    Next Monday we are doing a community service project for the Kim Miller Scholarship fund! We are doing an exhibition and will have games and special guests. We are doing this right before we leave for Seniors, as another "fun" practice. 
    Finals are coming up! We are going to be having team study sessions and hopefully will ace all of our finals for a cap off to a successful academic year. Ana and I are staying for Commencement, and will be helping out, and hopefully driving golf carts.
    We just had spring weekend, which was so much fun it should be illegal. We participated in the annual boat race and surprisingly stayed afloat. That pond was freezing, but we stuck it out like troopers. There were outside concerts and tons of games on campus. 

Pictures!
