A Great (Terrible) Adventure.
Well today, I find, is a great day to be recorded. As you all sigh and groan in horrible boredom at how I have started this whole entry off. But anyways. Today was the day that four friends (Vikki, Chris, Mike and my boyfriend, Shane) and I, all went to one of the local Aquatic Center for a nice dip in the pool. As happy as this all sounds, there's a catch; I left my swim suit at my Godparent's, where I am staying for the next few days. Hopelessy in despair, seeing as I was at my friend's house since the night before and we wanted to go swimming. So, I just grab the phone, punch in a few numbers and await for someone to pick up. But after a few measly rings, the answering machine picks up. Thinking to myself that since my godfather had gone to work already, my godmum must be outside gardening. With that thought in mind and a lot of hope, I head down to the house, only to find NO ONE HOME. Cursing to myself I slam the screen door closed and climb back into my friend's car. Explaining my story, her mother, being a life-saver, pulls out a bag and said that she had expected this to happen and had come prepared; she had brought two bathing suits in hope of helping me out. Okay I know this sounds horrendous, but I didn't care, I just want to go swimming. Taking the bag and thanking her, we all make our way into the Aquatic Center. Paying the price of $3.48 we all make our way to the seperate change rooms of the men and women. Hoping to GOD that there was a reasonable swimsuit in the bag, I extracted a black one-piece. Glad that I had managed to bring a pair of nice white shorts, I put the whole atire on and ask my friend for her opinion. Glad that I didn't look horridly ugly, we entered the pool. We joined the guys in the hot tub for a bit before we spilt up and headed our own ways; some of us heading into the bigger pool, or the smaller pool. Me, going to the smaller one, Vikki, Shane and I hung out for a bit. (Well as far as I can remember sweatdrop )There was this extended part of the smaller, or wave pool, that is called the river. It is a winding strip of pool that goes around in a circle with a small current. Swimming along the current, we decided to go against it for the hell of it. Later on we all go to the bigger pool, or cold pool, and hung out for a bit. Then things got interesting. We headed back to the wave pool and played a bit of Keep Away with a beach ball. The chase to get the ball, ended up in the river and sadly to say, my own teammate ended up smacking me in the face with her foot seeing as she was ahead of me. Writhing in slight pain, I stand up and cover my mouth, where I had gotten hit. Shaking off the sudden shock of getting hit in the face, I resume to play. The game continued for a bit before we got exhausted and settled into heading out, three hours later, to put it quickly. Grabbing a few snacks of chocolate bars and chips, we sat and conversed until we were picked up. And thus is my day.
