I was with my brother and were on our way to the pool in our apartments. It wasn't a really a long distance in fact it was really short. But worst of all it was a really steamy day for swiming so it was perfect. When we got there my brother's friends were aready there. They pointed where their towels and stuff were, so we could put our stuff by theirs. =====

When my brother and I are at the pool he likes to hang out with his friends. That's okay. I just hang out by myself. then I got a really amazing idea! I was going to jump in to the nine foot deep water. it was a big deal because that was the deepest I have ever jumped in. But then the memerories came flooding back from the year before. That time, it had been my first time ever going swimming where I could not reach, and, let's just say, it didn't go well. So when I went to get in this time, I was a little bit queasy with fear. =====

I stood there for a while, watching. The hot pavement stung against my bare feet while I watched the all the other people at the pool. That day I was so jealous of the people who knew how to swim. I was doubting myself for jumping and asking the what if's in my head like what if I lose my breath what if I drown those are the questions that bothered me. =====

I went to where my brother was and I said "I'm not going to jump in right now" he just nodded at me, but he was looking at something behind me. Little did i know, one of my brother friends had gotten out and very quietly he was right behind me and..... pushed me in in! =====

I landed right in the middle of the nine foot when i went under the cold water felt good on my skin it felt as if there were ice-cubes against my skin the bottom of the pool was slimy yet soothing once my foot toched the bottem i gave a powerful kick and I was up in seconds my vision was kinda blurry but I could make out my brother's hand I took his offer and he pulled me back to the edge .When I had my hand on the edge I broke out in a grinn because I was jolly because I did it. =====
