It seems very similar to what we were seeing a couple weeks ago with the hurricane. This is something that's weather related and we can't control.
I've been in the shallow end of a pool, just kind of walking around, but this was my first time really swimming - and I was horrified! I actually lost it whenever I saw the edge of the pool. But I took baby steps and rewarded myself every step of the way.
I talk to myself. It's my worst habit. I often muse aloud, or, when people drive me crazy, I curse them aloud. I might do a ranting monologue about how pissed off I am about them, occasionally forgetting that they might still be in the room; now, that's weird!
Ever since I was a little girl, I always loved fashion. I would watch my mother get dressed and suggest things she should wear.
It's just really disappointing. We were just so close. I think we had all the tools in place to win the national championship. Sometimes things don't work out the way you want it to.
Just being in that venue and being at the Final Four knowing my team could be there the following year, I wanted to be part of that. I knew I had made the right decision even if we hadn't made it to this point. It's all the sweeter that we actually are here.
'The White Woman on the Green Bicycle' is a love story mapped onto an unfolding political tragedy: that of the failure of the Independence era in Trinidad.
I think I was frustrated early on because we weren't playing very well. I guess we woke up. We got things together, got things rolling.
I think at times that my team looks to me to put the ball in the basket.
Right now, we have a normal operation, but we are expecting snow accumulation after 3 p.m., overnight, and into the morning. Probably overnight is when we're going to see the attack.
My parents had a long and eventful marriage and were always a bit like movie stars to me when they were young.
I was over it when the game ended. I try not to dwell on things that happen. It was a bad game. It was unacceptable to me, but I just have to keep moving.
I knew I needed to come out and be prepared for this game. I knew I needed to be more aggressive and make better decisions and try to be under control. I was really focused on doing that.
I'm really not sure I've got it all together. Things are happening so fast. I had a pretty tough loss, so I have a lot of emotions and mixed feelings. But I'm a pro now and it feels great.
