I am a GENIUS...

Ok, so, I decided to go outside and swim cause it was just too hot for me to be inside sitting at the computer and doing nothing.

So I got my swimsuit on, and went out swimming all by myself. The water was FREEZINGUH. I was jumping around for a little while, practing some strokes swimming back and forth width wise, doing flip turns and then just being crazy and having a good time.

After awhile I decided to sing and fing my scales underwater cause I'm just that AWESOM. ;D I was seeing how many of them I could sing before having to take a breath---I got to four. :P

So then I'm doing that on the bottom of the pool and looking up at the sky (which looks SO COOL through the water), and lying there made me think of the breathing exercises we do with Mr. O. And then THAT reminded me of how Mr. O. shows us how to breathe, with the stomach thing.

So for awhile I'm just standing in the middle of the pool, with my head down, looking at my stomach and just...uh...breathing.

All of a sudden I hear, "...Rachel?" and I look up and say, "Yeah??" and my mom pauses for a moment and then says, "What are you DOING???"/"Oh...HAHA. I guess I do look kinda silly..."/"Yes you look absolutely ridiculous, but what are you doing??"/"...breathing exercises Mr. O. taught us."/"Haha! Ok then..." She heads back inside and I am standing there LAUGHING MY HEAD OFF. I can just imagine what I looked like...WOW.

So then, being the genius I am, I had a BRILLIANT idea (or at least I thought it was brilliant at the time). I decided that I'd do the breathing exercises UNDERWATER. That way mom wouldn't have to see me looking all stupid...

So I go under, and take a HUGE breath and as the water is travelling down my throat and into my lungs I realize...oh, you can't do breathing exercises underwater cause you can't BREAHTE UNDERWATER!!!!

Just as soon as I realize that I start choking on the water and decide then I should probably get out of the pool...

Wow...breathing exercises underwater...I am a GENIUS...
