that is my mental mantra for a successful elementary backstroke.
it was good times.
so long as i dont have to put my face in the water and breathe, i seem to be ok. when i have to coordinate the inhale/exhale with body movements and try not to think about water rushing into every available cavity of my head, THEN i get panicked and things go all out of whack.
i had to talk myself into calm in order to use a snorkel tube. SNORKEL TUBE! ABOVE WATER!
i have a problem.
but we're facing the fears, ladies and gents, facing the fears.
got to do a little show and tell of my fabulous new skills when my swimming lesson merged into the impromptu pool party.
yes yes, good times.
and i made a wicked pasta salad too!
but now my face feels burnt.
ah, the price to pay...
=)
