Swimming pool and crocodile

Laugh. Laugh at all siliness in life

I have 1 irrational fear. That is I cannot swim alone in swimming pool. Because I’m afraid there’s crocodile in it. Each time I tell my friend, they will laugh until their tears come out. They suppose someone so logic and forward thinking person like me wouldn’t have such fear. Since crocodile in a civilized swimming pool is not justified. But, I just can’t go around it.

So recently I’ve been swimming a lot because I decided be more serious about my back injury. I want to first fully recover from my injury before getting back into my sports routine. Swimming is the only sport I find that doesn’t make my injury worst (not cycling, not yoga). I’m beginning to swim at 400m, my aim is to be able to swim at 1000m. Ha, but I’m not sure if I could really do that. Regardless, yesterday weather was a little gloomy after some rain in the noon.

So once I reached MGCC, I asked the girl at the counter if I could peek there’s anyone at the pool first. To my surprise, nobody was at the pool. And the pool water was as calm as a perfect breeding space for crocodile. So, like that, I just left the pool. Arghhhhh… how wish I could muster the courage to swim alone. It’s such an inconvenience! Imagine, halfway swimming, the everyone leave, and I’m just at my 200m swimming lap. Niaseng.
