Nostalgia...

My brother, sister, and I went swimming today. I didn't swim many laps because it was open swim, so there was hardly room to do anything but "play." But, I did go off the diving board and I got chlorine water up my nose :P. It was a lot of fun, but it did remind me of my days on the swim team and I kind of miss it. I mean, it's good to grow up, but if I had to relive some days, I think the swim team would be good. The adrenaline rushes, the PR's, the friendships, the parties...I loved it all. I remember the first time my mom came to one of my meets she walks into the pool and says "Oh I hate that smell." I looked at her and said "What smell?" :D And one of my friends at a basketball game where we played for pep band told me I smelled like chlorine. Ah, the perfume of swimmers. Anyway, so I've grown up and I'll forever have those memories.

I love to swim.. However I am not a very strong swimmer... mostly these days I just float!

good luck getting back into it! I bet you will not have a problem...

Mmmm... water..

My favorite thing to do is to hold my breath, lay underwater, and listen to my heart beat. Very relaxing. :)
