swim teacher!

my shadowing went quite well yesterday. i was super nervous before that as i had to drive there myself (in my daddy's big car!) and the traffic was quite heavy, and i wasn't too sure if i was on the right track. besides, i was running a little late.....

but once i jumped into the pool, i settled down and the person i was shadowing with was really cool. i think she's south african, judging from her accent, and she's been teaching for over 20 years now. she's really cool with kids and have patience that i have never seen before - it reaches the sky and beyond :p

then i went with another instructur called winner. pretty cool name aye! she basically explained to me a few things about working there and some tips and tricks to teach kids, which was pretty awesome!

time just went ticktockticktock and before i knew it, it was 5.45pm already, which means i've been teaching for over 2 hours without realising! see, when you enjoy doing something, time just flies by without you realizing!

anyway, they told me yesterday that the shadowing was to make sure i'll enjoy teaching and working with the people there. i think they're all very very cool and nice people - didn't see anyone i didnt like or seem bitchy or bossy. the pool is awesome as it's bromine and chlorine free, so i didnt smell like a walking bottle of chlorine after soaking in there for over 2 hours. somehow, the water had a soft and smooth feel - when i was in the water and when i rub my skin, it feels really nice and soft and smooth! i wonder why?

they use some ozone process thingy to keep the water clean which is pretty impressive coz the water looks much cleaner than the swimming school at LEP. i'll be more than happy to accept the job once they offer me UNLESS the pay is lower than what i'm getting :p

back to microbiology. t00dles!
