My Swim Final

... remember the last post when I talked about my swimming final? yeah... this is how it went down:

I had already attended my water aerobics class prior to my swim final so my body was already fairly tired. The fact that I had to put dry clothes on top of a wet swim suit was also equally annoying. u__u;;
Sooooooo... there we were, standing in a line at the edge of the deep end. We were fully clothed with long sleeve button-up shirts, jeans, shoes and socks. (and goggles, thankfully) I was really nervous just before we began. I looked over at the life guard guy who was also taking the class and I asked him if he would save me if I started drowning. He looked at me funny and said, "What? I'm going to be busy doing the same thing you're doing!"... that didn't make me feel any better. Our swim instructor kept us standing there for several minutes, practically clueless, as she began to vaguely describe how we're suppost to inflate our clothes. When we finally jumped in and started swimming, I started to feel a little better because I didn't feel like all the attention was focused on me. I was the last one to make the trip across the pool back to the deep end. It was really hard swimming fully dressed! When I got back to the deep end I started inflating my shirt... that wasn't so hard. The pants were the hard part. As I was trying to inflate my pants I breathed in a large amount of water and began to choke. Immediantly the life guard guy dropped what he was doing and came to my rescue along with another student! xD It was like instinct! Never the less, I somehow managed to finish the final and inflate my pants. (lol) Afterword everyone told me how good of a job I did... like they felt sorry for me! :p Oh well, as long as I get a A!
