Around the pool in 20 laps

You might find the title somehow amusing but let me tell you its true. It was unusually crowded yesterday at the pool. There was 3 swimming classes and alot of other misc people around in the competition pool. It's impossible for you to keep in one lane even for a lap.

I started out on the right side but gradually after every lap, i found myself in another lane different from the previous. Until the end...PooF! i was on the left side of the pool already. My feelings were very mixed...angry, pissed, amused and tired. Of course i dont deny i might play a part in hindering other swimmers's path too cos after my swim when i was at the enterance, this guy approached me and the conversation goes like this...

Man: I like your swimming style

Me: Huh??

Man: I like the way you swim

Me: Huh how you see le?

Man: I was beside you all the while when you swim. You were the girl with the white
goggles right?

Me: Uh Yah

Man: You know just now when you go left, i also go left, you go right, i also have to
go right

Me: Oh issit i'm sorry

Man: I tot you were an adult cos you looked very fierce when you swim but now you
look like a little girl. ( Ok..both ain very good comments huh)

Me: Oh (laughed)

Man: Oh sorry i didnt get your name

Me: oh Geraldine

Man: Dennis, nice to meet you. Btw you know you're a dangerous swimmer (took out his
lighter and demonstrate). You were swimming straight and then suddenly whoosh!
you can change course very quickly. Not safe you know.

Me: Oh ok sorry but the pool was too crowded

Man: Yah i understand -------(can't remember what he said here)-------
so how many laps do you usually swim?

Me: 20??

Man: The most?

Me: err 30??

Man: Have you tried swimming 100 laps before not?

Me: *faint* Huh!!! Madness

Man: Yes you can. Go slow dun go for speed.

Me: Oh ok never before too crowded to try.

Man: So do you know how to swim free style?

Me: Eh no..

Man: Free style is good can train you up. I don't know how to in the past but i
learn. (blah blah k this conversation is getting long..gonna cut short here)

Man: You know how i recognise you now not..cos of your black earrings..(dumbfounded,
wat a small detail)....( towards the end of the conversation) We see la, if we
meet again, then we can qie cuo qie cuo...(and we parted)

seconds later...

Man: Geraldine...next time remember dun wear black earrings ah!


Ok that was the summary of the conversation..i found it rather funny that's why i decided to blog it down. If you think this is a young guy..nah..wrong..think he's in his 40s but he's english educated and ok has a certain charm for a guy of his age...If you think i'm interested..Wrong agAin!..he's a smoker n i already have my someone even better in my life. oH well...wat an interesting evening.
