Swimming Festival - Part 1 [Chloe]
"Alright, students, the swimming festival will be happening tomorrow; information has been sent out regarding transport and the activities of the day. Those who participate will represent their house groups, and at the end of the day, the ranking of houses will be announced."
The swimming festival was a day I quite enjoyed. It was something different to the relatively uninteresting classes that I usually attend. It is something more challenging and thus more exhilarating because whilst I likely get the best grades out of everyone, my athletic ability was not yet at a point great enough to swamp the opposition. My favourite part is the rankings, the fact that you can come first, or second, or third. It is something that allows me to quantify my importance in the world in this narrative of mine.
