~ Swimming Lesson... ~
7:59:00 pm
Sigh... Feeling so physically drained... Even as I'm writing this blog, I'm feeling so tired and lethargic... Well, maybe I'm just trying too hard... Trying too hard to prove my friends wrong... Trying too hard not to let them make fun of me just cuz I can't swim...
Yes, I can't swim... Well, it wasn't really a big issue for me that I can't swim but ever since I got to poly, everyone was like "You can't swim?" those sorts of thing... It then got stuck to me that not knowing to swim was such a big issue... But yeah, I won't deny that knowing how to swim is a useful tool... Just that, haiyoh, I don't like to be ridiculed over such a minor thing... So yeah, I went to the swimming pool today with Flora after SO many years of not stepping into one...
Reached the school pool complex at about 2pm... It did freaked me out a little bit that there were quite a lot of people at the deep pool... Ended up sitting at the benches for a few minutes with Flora, chit-chatting about stuffs (I realise that I haven't REALLY talked to her face-to-face about what we think and what we're facing for quite a period of time... So we really had a good heart-to-heart talk just now... Which of course includes gossipping... Heh...) Finally got into the pool where Flora was teaching me how to use my legs and kick in the water... Was quite tough and tiring... Basically she was teaching me the 'Frog Style' or what I would rather call 'Breaststroke' technique...Haha... Couldn't coordinate my leg movements with my hands...
Got tired so we moved to the medium pool, followed by the baby pool where we had a good chat, moved back to the medium pool, sat on the 'beach' chair, back to the benches and finally, again into the deep pool... Haha... Complicated eh...
Everything ended at about 5... Got into the shower room and stuff... And yeah, I can see a two-colour tone on my skin... But I'm gonna keep trying till I can swim and have a firm butt!! Haha...
