This morning the football team had our first swimming workout, which we'll do on Sunday mornings throughout the season. I had never swam as a workout before and I guess I was a little nervous about it. I dreamt that I got in the pool with my teammates and they were all world-class swimmers. They were coasting through the water with ease and I was struggling mightily. It was like I was in one of those pool treadmills where you can swim as hard as you can and not move.
I think you were just very nervous about this test, as it was something you have never done before. Whether you are really on the football team and had swim practice this morning could be the new experience, or just that fact that you are starting a new school year, and if you are a freshman, a whole new life almost. It is scary to start something new and we as humans often think that everyone else is better than us at something, but you just have to go for it!
