finally, great weather for the whole day!
swam a couple of laps intermittently :P spent more time lazing about...
i realise that the demographics of the swimmers are totally skewed towards males and young tykes who're either learning swimming in the adult olympic pool (hence being obstacles to other users) or playing amongst themselves. i saw a total of 2 females who're probably aged between 15-25 in the adult pool.
what do the guys do at the pool? laze and hang out together (as in the case for many blokes, looks like they organise swimming outings), swim really slowly, or sun tan haphazardly around the perimeter of the pool (the swimming complex i go to has no space for poolside tables or chairs or reclining chairs BLAH) most of them are probably some sports people, swimming/waterpolo/rugby? or simply jocks haha. blah, i'm skinny. skinny and fair.
it's unbelievable how much different people's physique become after puberty (point of information, kids don't gain much muscle mass, they just get toned). and i have the physique of a 13 year old. as in, the height and built.
perhaps, perhaps, perhaps... regret, regret, regret.
random: why do (most) girls like to stay untanned?
anyway, my attempt to bake myself resulted in a half-cooked self. now i'm red everywhere especially the back, face, outer side of the arms and legs, whereas i'm relatively less touched at the belly (i'm trying to get rid of it, i mean the belly) and worse, the inner side of the arms are still the colour of like white chicken! need to swim more. and i realise that i probably never became properly fair again after getting tanned when i was around 5-6... i'm usually red in photos now. even before i restarted tanning. zzz.
i vaguely remember my swimming lessons when i was 5... swam at bukit batok complex, used those little foam surfboard-like floats and the stuff you put between your legs. only learnt breaststroke and some sidestroke i think. freestyle taught by my dad (i learnt unwillingly) and later i occasionally try backstroke for fun haha. OH YEA IF I SWIM BACKSTROKE I CAN TAN MY BELLY!
remembering that i really need to exercise (and that the morning's swimming went pretty much un-tiring), i decided to try jogging or something in the evening. but my lazy bums couldn't be lifted from the chair i'm sitting on right now as i type, and so no exercise yay... was supposed to do some other form of exercise (gymming :O ) but, er hem... :( oh well, maybe something cropped up on the other side...
overall, i'm still pretty glad i can have a day without rain, and actually see sky-blue :)
ok, need to eat dinner now... bye bye!
