We all have our addictions from chocolate to smelling gasoline to playing hockey! But my one addiction is chlorine. I love that sting you get when you get pool water in your eye or the taste and smell. I know it's really weird but I was basically raised in the pool. Neither one of my parents can swim swim but I'd say I'm a pretty good swimmer. Swimming to me is the only time I can fully clear my mind without any distractions, its like my high. 

I've been swimming ever since I can remember! (But my mom says 3 and a half months) And at the beginning of the year I was swimming 3-4 times a week until I had emergency surgery in February! My appendix burst and I was in surgery shortly after. I wasn't discharged from the hospital for another 13 days later due to  complexions. (But that's another story.) I was only allowed to start swimming last week but just haven't yet.  I'm actually too scared to get into the pool again because I'm scared that I've lost all of it. I've worked my life for this and my little appendix is gonna ruin that! 

Here's my fvauirte pool/water song ever:




 
So I was watching a dove commercial last night, and it was asking women about what their favorite body part was. And none of them could name their favorite body part, I thought this was awful! Us women are so self conscious over social media and it's getting ridiculous! I thought for a couple minutes and I came to the conclusion that my favorite body is my feet! Yes that's right my bony, husky and scarred feet is my favorite part body. I bet most of you guys are wondering why, am I right??


I know it's kind of weird to hear but my feet are kind of like my best friend! So after counting all my blisters and scars a couple of times, I have 32 in total!! And I'm proud of all of them! There's amazing stories behind of all of them from running my first 8km race to my favorite soccer side tackles to breaking my favorite pair of flats in. But most of them are from running a WHOLE cross country season without out, did I mention that I HATE wearing socks and or shoes? Most people think it's weird but I think its normal. During summer you'll see me running barefoot, I will always come home with black feet. Even if I have a bad day, my feet are always there because they have too be. Haha, and that's why my feet are my favorite body part.

I encourage EVERYONE to do the same thing and try to figure out what your favorite body part is!
