My goal for this summer (besides finish writing my thesis) is to be able to swim. I've had the normal prescribed amount of swimming lessons as a kid but somehow I just never got it. Even my sister got it and she was in the same class as me! So I've enrolled with a few friends for adult beginners swimming class at our local swimming pool. We've had 3 lessons already and it's been really fun and scary at the same time. At present I can float (front and back), glide and kick. As soon as I incorporate a new thing like blowing bubbles under water or paddle I lose all coordination. Yes I'm pretty unco! Our instructor told us not to fear the water so much, he's a good guy. I'll update you on my progress from time to time.
