I started to learn how to swim when I was in 2nd grade. When I was in 1st grade, I was afraid of the water because I watched lots of shark attack movies and also scary creatures living in the bottom of the ocean. So yeah I was very afraid of going inside the swimming pool even though it wasn't the ocean, but still it's a water!!! Big tank water! Hehe... anyways I don't even know how to float. After my 2nd year of my elementary school. I got the hang of it, then I started to love swimming a lot. But in my half year of my 2nd grade, I got into an accident. But my swimming teacher didn't see me. She was busy teaching the other student's on rules of our school swimming while I was practicing how to swim. She was mad because I was scared to go to the deep water and that I was way behind at stuff. Yes I was way behind because I was afraid of the water. Anyways you know those board where you hold into it and you paddle your feets around the water -- yeah. I accidentally went to the deep water. I didn't know how to control myself. I was going bit crazy because I was very scared. Then I accidentally let go off my board and I went down... I drank some of the water ehhh. I think I was in the water for more than 5 minutes. Because while I was paddling, I saw the clock. It was around something _:45am... so yeah... and I came back up. I saw the clock, it was something like _:00pm... so yeah... somewhere around the 00's heh. It was terrible, but I'm glad that I got saved. So now I'm still afraid to go to the water now. Just thinking of it makes me very nervous and scared. Well actually I'm not scared of the water. Just don't want to because I was thinking I might get another accident and no one will save me especially the lifeguards because you know sometimes the teenage guys are busy looking at "hot girls" yeah...
