It's hot!!!
Recently it is very hot... really hot. I am managing, but it is tough. And, because I don't use the air-condioner in my place, it is sometimes difficult to sleep...
But in order to stat cool, I go to the gym and swim. And the other day, at the pool, a funny thing happened. So, I will tell you. I was doing my normal 1 km plus a little swim. Before I used to swim constantly and never stop and the pace was slow. But recently I changed my style, and I spring about 50 or 100 meters, then I take a break for a minute or so, then sprint again. In all, I swim the same distance as the long slow swim, about 1km or so. So, let's get to the story. I was swimming, and after my 100m sprint, when I was taking a break in the water, another regular of the pool, an older guy about 50yrs old with a big gut, but a semi-fast swimmer, said "Have you taken a swimming lesson?" I said "Nah." He said, "Well you really should. Because your form is absolutely terrible! You are big, and if you take a lesson or two, your swimming will get so much better." I was shocked!!! Speechless!!! To be honest, recently I think my speed has gotten better, faster, much faster than one year ago!!! So now I am thinking about taking a lesson, or buying a new swimming suit(one that will help me swim faster just like all the pros wear!) But, I don't know...I am thinking...
Below is the the Kanemoto Bento which is exclusively sold only at Koshien Stadium. If I eat one, do you think I can swim faster?
Have a good weekend, or beginning of summer vacation for some!
p.s. below is also some more "Tough English." Give it a try and let me know if you understand or not.
1) The bandage was wound around the wound.
2) The farm was used to produce produce.
3) We must polish the Polish furniture.
4) They were too close to the door to close it.
5) The wind was too strong to wind the sail.
6) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.
