Sink Or Swim?

SINK?



OR

SWIM?



I went to PD last weekend with such a flutter of anticipation,convinced that I still remember how to swim.It was disappointing though I already expected the outcome.I thought I was swimming,but the fact was that I looked like I nearly drowned.How is that so?

The swimming pool:
I bathe,crawled,dove,dog-paddled,floated,did the freestyle, glided,waded,paddled,stroke and all those swimming crap but it looked more like a worm wriggling in the water than me swimming.Hilarious.What a jolly act.I chaffed myself.
Since I've got a brand new swimming suit (after years waiting),I think it's time to brush my rusted skills.A good friend of mine love swimming,think she might be able to help with the techniques.Will you Saby?

The sea:
I noticed that I am still afraid to swim in the sea.Being able to go only like a few steps ahead from the land,eventually I freak-out and waded away through the salt water heading to the beach.



It's scary enough to not being able to see your feet underwater.I did no other movement except standing in the gushing waves,staring and admiring those who can swim happily in the sea.I dared myself to just float for like 10 seconds and guess what..I made it for just 2 seconds.I prefer having on-water vehicles rather than being in the water,using my own hands and feet to move around.If I ever being force to swim in the sea,afraid that I'll ended up clinging on somebody's back.That would cause chaos as I might cry.Who knows?XD So,I could say that I have thalassophobia.Hohoho..I love the sea,the scent,the view,and everything related to it.Maybe in a few years later I'll have the gut to swim in it.(PRAY)
