Today i was learning how to write a story better.

 Swimming Lessons
Walking into the Enterprise swimming pools I could smell the cold water brimmed with chlorine. I hopped.


 My swimming partner Mason took a grip of the smooth swimming board as I placed my hands firmly onto mine.
I accelerated my delicate body as I splashed my arms and legs in and out of the teal water. Splash, splash, splash.
“Onto my second length” I whispered to myself.
Splash! I paddled my straight legs and arms like a wave. Passing through, Mason catched up paddling vigorously, slowing down and getting tired as I went ahead  trying to use the smallest of my stamina. “Now you and Mason need to hold your breath underwater” the swimming teacher explained. I dived down into the deep, cold water. I closed my eyes hoping I could last enough in the deep blues of the pools.

Poof! The water splashed into the air with bubbles bouncing back into the water. “I think I improved.” I said. “I think we both did” Mason replied as i pushed myself out of the cold water.
