--------------------
Pointer 1: You just can't be too arrogant of which your opponent's ability might just screw you up.
Reason: Come on, needless to even mention, I'm happy with my 32 sec / 50 metre timing that beat him by a mere 3-4 seconds.
Denotation: Despite getting 2nd on my heats, even though my overall time didn't qualify me to get a medal, beating him was deemed enough
Pointer 2: Tight goggles are not always good, loose goggles are never good; but goggles you're used to always beats a new one just for that certain event.
Reason: (1) Hurts you till you can't race no more (2) Your dive instantly costs you your race (3) Cause you know how and when it will or won't work
Denotation: You're off to a competition, just please don't get something new just to show off or said to be specially for that event, you just won't have the time to calibrate.
Pointer 3: Please oh please co-operate with us while we gather our finest swimmers from the school.
Reason: We're aiming for at least 9 in the aquatics team next year; you're gonna be trained needless to say; don't we all wanna win something from what we worked hard for? ; The amount is what drives nervousness aside.
Denotation: It's good to have someone who got your back during the relays; full scale training for a year to win; and as a matter of fact, having someone beside you just gives you the confidence after some awesome training in a year.
