I can't imagine what I would be doing if I wasn't swimming. It is what I want to do now; it is what I want to do in the foreseeable future, and that is what I'm focusing on.

As long as I'm enjoying swimming, I will keep swimming.

Nothing would make me happier than doing nothing but drama for the foreseeable future.

Swimming a 50 m is like playing the pokies: you push a button, and you never know what is going come up; it may be a mixed bag.

I'm not dreaming of any podiums or any medals that I can put around my neck. I'm just focusing on what I need to do today in order to be better tomorrow.

I tend to be that swimmer that doesn't look like she is trying, but is actually dying on the inside. It's a little bit unfortunate because people are, like, 'Can you just try harder?' I was, like, 'If you can see what's going on in my head right now, you wouldn't be telling me that.'
