I am glad i knew how to swim.Or else, i drowned yesterday.
We went to Isla Mellousa Beach Resort yesterday with my family. Then had a boating trip since a lot of corals and color blue fishes in the deep side of the beach.
So we went there with a small boat with my 2 nephews and 3 nieces.Unfortunately, because we keep moving inside,the little boat turned and we all go down to the sea.
Im glad that all of us know how to swim.So we went to the seashore by just swimming carrying the little boat since it is already full of sea water inside.Lol...
And we keep laughing while swimming until we arrived in the sea shore...
Do you have any experiences and test your swimming ability???Lets share it here then!!!

I learned to swim when I was about 2. My mom was a fishing guide and we grew up boating and fishing so we needed to know how to swim, I didn't like lessons though and my friend and I used to love to goof around and swim on the bottom. One day the swimming teacher asked my mom if she could throw me in the deep end. She did and I swam like I never swam before. I loved to swim and I joined a swim team and was a competitive swimmer until I left school. I don't get much of a chance to swim these days and I sure miss it.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to swim! I tried to learn last time from my elder brother, but it was to no avail. I still don't know how to swim now. Furthermore, I am afraid of being too long in the water! I feel suffocated every time I am in the water!

You know now that I think about it, I've never learned how to swim and I'm 21 years old. I'm not much of a water person either so I guess I should be fine. Right? lol
