Watery Earth Lesson 1: My Water Story

    I went to the pool one time and this is how it went. It was when I was still little and I decided to go down the drop slide in the diving well. It looked like it was really high up even though it actually isn't that high. As I started to walk up the steps I saw that there was only 1 person in line so I didn't have much time to think about it. When I heard the lifeguard say "Okay you can go now" I knew that it was my turn so I went down. I went speeding down and plunged deep into the water with my eyes closed. I started to lose sense of direction since I was so deep down and I was panicking. I finally found my way up gasping for air and floated over to the ladder.
     "I think I'm gonna try the diving board next time" I said as I was climbing up out of the water onto dry, warm, land. After that I went to the snack bar to get some food to calm down and relax.
