I looked on helplessly as my old iPhone 5s refused to switch on. Damnit! Don't you dare die on me, you old piece of-argh! I took a deep breath and stared ahead. I've been in Rio for almost a week now and hadn't been able to call anyone since my phone refused to be switched on and just flat out died as soon as I touched down in Rio airport a week ago. All my numbers are in my phone and I can't really buy a phone here. Guess I'll just have to wait until I'm back in the states.
I missed Charlie like crazy. Not hearing her voice before the swimming tournament almost made me lose focus. I was glad that I would be back for her graduation in May, which would be next week. I already had it all planned. I even took a week off to spend time with her, which my coach did not like one bit, but had to give me since there would be no tournaments for at least a month. But I would be busy again in June.
