Tranquiltity in the water

While swimming today in the hot afternoon sun after a nice workout at the gym, everything seems to be tranquil and calming about the water. When you look through the pair of goggles you have on while swimming into the deep pool floor, you feel a sort of calming effect that relaxes the tense muscles. I like it when I go to the pool and it's empty, devoid of anyone interrupting your swim that afternoon, though I know soon, I will be less able to enjoy such things anymore doing whatever I want, whenever I want. Still, I take comfort in the knowledge and enjoy every moment of "freedom" as I know it.

I don't know if you've seen the links that have been going around about someone's blog post of the memories of the 1990's and if you were in school during that time just like me, it'll bring back so many fantastic memories that will make you nod in agreement.

Just copy and past to the browser using the above link.
Reading this brings back so many memories of the past. Remember how we used little mugs and tooth brushes in pri school to brush our teeth before and after recess? Remember how we used to deface our pets notebook? Remember playing soccer with a tennis ball? We have so much fond memories of the past in primary school and coming from a neighbourhood school those were much wilder and vivid than you could ever imagine. Now, I wonder how all the primary school buddies are in their life now, I haven't caught up with them for ages. I used to be obsessed with WWE cards and little digimons that leveled up. The child in me still has a place for all these memories. :)
