I've first learned swimming when I was a little kid about 5 years old. This is because my house is near the beach. I always go swimming together with my brothers and young cousins. One time, my brothers and I were the only one swimming at the beach at noon time and was high tide without the knowledge of my parents, and something happened to us. We were drowned. To make a long story short, we were saved by our adult neighbor who at that time was also swimming. But even so, I am not afraid and did not give up swimming. I still have the determination to swim. During my college years, this was the time that I was aware of the styles of swimming because I had subject in Physical Education class as swimming lesson. This has paid a lot through my determination and not giving up despite of what happened to me. Therefore, if you have determination and willingness you can be able to reach want you like and make it happened. I may not be the best swimmer in the whole world but at least I know how to swim and won't drown.
