If I could do anything .....

If money were no option......hmmmm.....this is a tough decision. But, if I could do anything I wanted then I would swim for the rest of my life. I would build and open my own Olympic sized pool. Swim teams could practice, swim lessons would be taught, and people would just have fun. It would mainly be for swim meets and swim practice though. It would be so amazing that the Olympics would be held there! I would not just stop at a pool either, there would be basketball courts , volleyball courts , baseball fields , football fields , a golf range , a gymnasium and an ice rink. Name a sport , and I've got it ! This would deffidently help society because anyone could come exercise and play here. This would be my dream come true , since I could swim all day and I would be responsible for other people's happiness. (:
But I unfortunately can not do that, so I shall just become an Olympic swim coach and teach the best swimmers in the world. Perhaps I would earn enough money being a coach that I could open my own pool.

Just a hobby ?

I know I write about swim team a lot, but it really is my passion. Swimming is my life, it has consumed my heart, mind, and soul. My mom even says my natural scent is chlorine. I love the water, because it accepts me for who I am. No matter how many time I kick and punch at it, it just welcomes me back with open arms. Now some people may say swim is 'easy' and is 'just something you instinctively do before you drown,' but it is SO much more than that ! Swimmers flip more then gymnasts, go more yards then any runner, and kick harder then a kick-boxer. Swim also gives me the biggest rush ever, 0.14 seconds could literally be the difference between 1st and 5th place ! So the real question is swim just a hobby ? No, it is a life style
