Tonia came twelfth in the women’s 10m individual prelims, so made it through to the semi-final. She dived really consistently and we all thought she had come fourteenth, but she had actually come in twelfth place again and I picked her up and hugged her really hard. In the final, she was fifth going into the last round but dropped her reverse dive, and ended up in eighth place. I was really happy for her.

I was also able to show Mum and Dad round the village and where I was staying. Dad, like me, thought the best thing was the food hall and the free McDonald’s! I showed them all the pictures I had been taking and they bought loads of souvenirs from the special shop. It was really good knowing they were there just outside the village. I spoke to them on the phone, too, with special SIM cards.

One day in the village we chatted to the swimmers, who had competed on the third day and said they were really bored but I could not understand it. In our free time, there always seemed like there was loads to do. I even had my hair cut in the special hairdresser’s. Apparently they were trainees and my hair was a bit thin afterwards!

I sorted out my play list for my competition: I chose ‘Cold Shoulder’ – Basement Jaxx remix; ‘I Can Walk on Water I Can Fly’ – Basshunter; ‘Jumpstyle’ – Basshunter; ‘Piece Of Me’ – Britney Spears (Bimbo Jones remix); ‘Trippin on You’ – Cahill; ‘Forever’ – Chris Brown; ‘I Just Wanna Make Love to You’ – Etta James; ‘Sweet About Me’ – Gabriella Cilmi; ‘What We Gonna Do’ – H20; ‘No Air’ – Jordin Sparks featuring Chris Brown; ‘Give It to Me’ – Madonna; ‘If I Never See Your Face Again’ – Maroon 5 featuring Rihanna; ‘Disturbia’ – Rihanna; ‘Who’s That Girl’ – Robyn; ‘Cry for You’ – September; ‘Take a Bow’ – Rihanna Clubland B remix; ‘Fix Me’ – Velvet; ‘Run the Show’ – Kat DeLuna; ‘Watch Out Alex’ – Gaudino featuring Shena; ‘All I Ever Wanted’ – Basshunter; and ‘Groove Coverage’ – Poison. This list seems really old now but it was good at the time. After doing that I started to mentally prepare myself as I faced the individual event.
