Swimming
|
As you know, most of the time nowadays I'm so free I'm practically rotting at home. I still don't understand why while studying I can have the motivation to exercise a bit at home. But when it comes to the holiday, why is it that I'm so lazy to go gym when I literally have nothing to do the whole day ? Maybe I'm so lazy I don't even want to step out of the house ?
Anyway, I went to swim 2 times this week. I dunno how else to say it but I really enjoy swimming. There's something deeply relaxing about it. It makes me wonder if it has got anything to do with my earplugs. I dunno, when I put them on I don't hear a thing. And being submerged in the water, timing of the movement of your arms and legs becomes second nature after a while. And usually when I swim at first the first few laps will be so tiring but the subsequent laps even though i'm still as tired, the breathing becomes easier. I'm sorry I'm going so much into details and being so zen-like but you get the point. And I remember the times I was still in camp Joy and I would go swimming during the 1 hour lunch break. We were so crazy then. We would practice the tumbleturn and I remember more than anything choking and swallowing water, gasping for air, and those horrible vacuumy headaches you get when you dive too deep. And occasionally get 1 or 2 times right ha ha. If you're wondering, tumbleturn is like when you swim to the edge of the pool and you do a 360 degree and kick off the edge with your feet and continue swimming. It's magnificent if you get it right I tell ya. I actually wanted to practice that but I'd be so embarrassed if I fail despite not many people around at that time. Just another 2 or 3 people in fact. But then again while I'm at it and miserably choking on water/gasping for air the lifeguard might take notice. Ha ha just a thought. |
