Like a dolphin yo.

Hey there, didn’t see you. *Turns around chair* Today is the first day in my quest to become an ultimate dolphin. 

*Head looks down* Yes, I do not know how to swim. Hey, there’s a first for everything. Here’s how my my first lesson went down. Case A and Case B. 

Case A

A 20-year old boy tries to swim. Breathing in an air of courage, he jumps in the swimming pool. Full of confidence, his legs started kicking against the water. His hands move out in a V-shape athlete manner creating the ultimate breaststroke. Breathes out into the water. Breathes in air as he rises… He was on his way… to not move an inch. 

Case B

A 10-year old girl down into the deep end of the pool and starts swimming. 

Well, the girl was my instructor’s daughter. Haha. I have to say it was pretty fun. I used to fear what would happen to me if I go into the swimming pool. When I sit on planes, I used to imagine situations where I jumped heroically out of the plane wearing the ugly yellow duckling vest and then the vest burst. When you can’t swim, there’s a lot of things you can’t do without worrying not that I worry much.

I’m hoping my future lessons will be better and I can really start swimming like a fish. Imagine the things I can do! Like 

Swimming, more swimming and more more swimming. There isn’t really much to do. But I can start banana boating or go into a ship without worrying that much.

Here’s to uncharted waters. Cheers!
