On Monday when the holidays finished I rushed my way to school. When I remembered I've forgot to tooth bush I rush inside the bathroom bushing my teeth normally just in case it bleed. After that I rushed inside the car with my bag but without my hat and swimming togs. My dad drove our big car that he soled on Wednesday the 16hs of October. We drove past the dairy and turned right arriving at school.
I walked passed the gate ready to start the first day of school but something was waiting for me. I walked passed the other gate and saw on the white board about "Remember Your Togs And Hat." When I saw I sign I realize that I don't have my togs and hat. But I was lucky with the sun hat part because it was cloudy the whole day. Mr Roberts announce that we don't have to wear our sun hat today.
I went inside room 6 then a few minutes the bell rings. We grabbed our togs and lined up outside but I didn't got my togs but I followed Miss D and went and lined up outside. When I saw some people who didn't got their togs holding a book and pen and paper I went back inside.
"Umm Miss D, I forgot my togs and I went outside like you said."
She went inside and gave me a spare togs and I was like Nani? (What?) I lined up ready to go to the bus but I was confused the whole time. Samuel said that I was a lair because I go a spare togs with me. "Samuel this is not my togs," I said "Its a spare togs that Miss D gave me," We calmed down and we went inside the bus. We went with room 4 and I think with room 11 but they have a different name. The bus was one of the loudest ride I've been in my life. When the bus started to move Miss D told someone in the bus to start a Karakia. After when Miss D started it the bus went from loud to normal voice. The bus was only a 2 minutes ride. The bus ride passed my house when we went back so I deiced to show finally show Samuel where my house is.
"Allright," Miss D Said "Seniors you'll go first but what words should we use when we are getting out of the bus."
"Excuse me, you go first and thank you bus driver." Someone said
"Okay Seniors go!"
We went saying thank you bus driver before we went out. We put our shoes and went inside the chaging room. Some people just took off their uniform and their togs were underneaths. I put on the spare togs and tight the draw string because it was too big for me. I put my cap on and walked to the seat. I waited for my swimming teacher and hoped the its a small pool not the big one. Its because I nearly drown at the other deep end because I was scared of deep water in the past but I was still scared. My swim teacher was Matthew. He is a funny guy and he tricked me when we streamed lined.
He tricked me by walking backwards while I streamed line. He was supposed to turn me back the other way but he just walked backwards. First we kicked with boards and then we did freestyle and some of us swam to the end like I did. Matthew said if you want to swim to the end you can, but if you stop come back because there is no reason to go there if you stop because you won't make it the whole way. Thats when I realize the its wasn't that deep anymore so I wasn't afraid. I swam to the end without stopping. But you can stop at the end and push your leg to the wall to boost yourself. I do freestyle really fast but I still lack on breathing.
Here is my Swimming video
You might have said that I'm not good at freestyle because of the video but that was only the 1st day of swimming. Here Is My Picture With My Swimming Group By The Way Some Were Away
