It was never in my book of dreams to be involved in any athletic activity. Nonetheless, I was encouraged by my co-majors to at least join the tryouts so that our department could be represented. For me swimming is not a conservative sport so I did not really liked the idea. When Liz , a bio freshman, said that she's willing to tryout swimming with me, I conceded. We then expressed our interests to our coordinator yet we were not entertained nor consolidated for a while. It was only yesterday that they contacted us and required us to rush our athlete's application. The shocking thing was that we we're told that we are already part of the team since there were only five of us-swimmers for the whole College of Arts and Sciences. My! Startled by the fact of competing, I rushed this morning to the nearest pool in Carmen and started to test my skill. My goal was to lap 12 times but I suddenly ran out of stamina by the sixth lap... not bad for an amateur. =)
