First Time in the Pool; Swimming is not Only For Fingerlings, Dolphins and Whales

Dear Diary,

Better late than never, I thought I could write earlier, but it seems words were far-fetched, so I had to relax my mind and bring to reminisce the feeling I had at the pool. The last time I swam was two and a half years ago, and not in well-treated water like in the pool but in the stream, and in most of them, they were shallow at the edge and the part deep enough for people to submerge was full of green algae, and they are disgusting for me, so if I may say, I only go to the stream but don't swim; it's very irritating swimming close to spirogyras or other algae and fingerlings.

Happiness doesn't lie in how much money you have, but it has many factors; how much love you receive makes you happy; to others, their definition may be different. Anytime you are not loved, your smile is forceful and can never be from the real expression of your heart.

Today was a very special day, and we decided to chase a little sliver of the sun's intensity by submerging and slamming our body on the pool. Actually, I didn't slam, but Mummy Ngoenyi and alli001 did, because if I did, the water pressure would have carried me to where I don't know. I wasn't afraid actually, because rescue teams, like @alli001 and other swimmers who came to chill were here, I don't know how to swim. Who can coach us on this? I really need a swimming coach.

All I could do was see how I could last in the water while holding my breathe. I tried in that aspect. It was a competition between me @bossj23, ngoenyi, and @whizzbro4eva. I would have lasted, but I wanted to bring out bubbles in the pool using my mouth and then water streamed into my nostril, making it choking for me. I sprang my body out, discovering that I couldn't last. The second person to spring up was @whizzbro4eva, followed by bossj23 and then @ngoenyi. She is excellent in swimming. @alli001 was recording the scene, and I would replay this over and over again each time I scrolled through my gallery.

So I was happy today; with companionship, we become happier than being confined by the four walls of our rooms, struck with varying emotional emotions that may cause depression. @alli001 paid for my swimming; Mummy Ngoenyi and @alli001 taught us (I, bossj23, and whizzbro4eva) how to swim into the deep; we are learning and will definitely attain perfection, and @benton3 exempted voluntary from this exercise to watch over our bags and phones for protection even though the camera by the side of the bar room was watching too; he did that for us. Moreover, he drove us in and out of the place; I really appreciate them.

To the Three Musketeers who couldn't swim deep, we will definitely learn those backstrokes, front strokes, butterfly strokes, and all swimming styles one could ever think of.
