My Swimming Experience
This semester of swimming I got to level 3 on the second day we started swimming. At first it was pretty slow because we were just working on our conditioning so that we could do the next swimming form. It was boring for the first two weeks because I was all alone in the deep side and my friends were in lvl 2. I had to get used to being in the water because I hadn't been in a pool in a while.

Some of the strokes that we had to do were freestyle, breast stroke, butterfly, backstroke, and we also had to practice diving in and how to get out of the pool. After getting the hang of diving I had to dive in and then freestyle all the way to the other side of the pool. To make it easier for myself I jumped as far as I could so that I wouldn't have to swim as far.

I liked swimming more this semester because the heater actually worked this year so it wasn't as cold as it was last year. I especially liked the last day of swimming because we got to do whatever we wanted and I had a lot of fun jumping off of the blue diving board. I learned how to do backstroke pretty well and I mastered the freestyle way of swimming.
