Oh look, I found a time sink. The music I can do without as I make a bunch of character avatars...

It's also very tough for me to move in it, seriously when we would walk on the water I'm like 10 feet away from the group thanks to the sand.

Yeah, sand sucks!

Quickman · « **Reply #22702 on:** August 10, 2014, 08:40:38 AM »

I'd take sand over trying to traverse a creek in my bare feet!

Them rocks is slippery.

I want to go swimming, but I'm definitely bringing a t-shirt to wear. Perhaps I shall wear my Japanese R2-D2 t-shirt while swimming...

Mirby · « **Reply #22703 on:** August 10, 2014, 01:42:36 PM »

yeah, and those slippery rocks are no fun. once lost my big toenail cause of them

I think for once I didn't get sunburned.

Victory!!!!

Sakura Leic · « **Reply #22706 on:** August 10, 2014, 08:24:53 PM »

Though I feel a little sore.

Protoman Blues · « **Reply #22707 on:** August 10, 2014, 08:26:07 PM »

From all the swimming?

Sakura Leic · « **Reply #22708 on:** August 10, 2014, 08:27:33 PM »

I can't swim, I think it was just trying to walk in the sand.

Protoman Blues · « **Reply #22709 on:** August 10, 2014, 09:09:15 PM »

Ahhhh. Well then yeah, could be that!

Quickman · « **Reply #22710 on:** August 11, 2014, 12:11:04 AM »

We need to teach you how to swim! PB can hold you so you can kick!

I might be going swimming this week. Mostly I like treading water in one spot for almost an hour. It's relaxing and great exercise.

Servant Phi · « **Reply #22711 on:** August 11, 2014, 12:48:22 AM »

I can't swim, either. D:

Quickman · « **Reply #22712 on:** August 11, 2014, 01:02:14 AM »

I guess I'll have to teach you how to swim, too.

It boggles my mind that there are so many adults out there who don't know how to swim. Learning to swim is important as it teaches you to be comfortable in the water. I learned when I was a little kid, and not through some fancy class. It was more like "toss you into the water. You either swim or you drown."

ViperAcidZX · « **Reply #22713 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:06:01 AM »

I was able to learn to swim from school, mainly to get over my fear of drowning.

Sounds like a plan to me!

I don't really plan to be a deep sea fisherman so I don't think I need to learn how to swim...

Anyway my brother just got a 32 iPhone 5s on sale, so he also got a Otterbox case, a really fancy glass screen protector and a car charger.

I'm still happy with my Galaxy S5.

Quickman · « **Reply #22716 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:31:04 AM »

So, another blog I'm following has a black-furred Hypno with some extreme form of stigmata. Like very extreme. Not just spontaneous bleeding from palms and feet; no, blood from practically everywhere.

And I was chastising myself for mine being nearly blind and having unpleasant run-ins with less-than-gentle authorities...

Eh, like I said in response to Sakura's Anti-Sue vs Mary Sue response... I can overlook a lot of stuff so long as that character is likable.

I don't plan to go deep-sea fishing, but I learned how to swim for recreation. You should learn for not only recreation, but boat safety. Should you ever go out on a boat for any reason, you need to be prepared. Life vests are fine, but you'd be far better off if you also knew how to swim. Life vests can be damaged and you may need to rely solely on your own natural buoyancy. Learning how to swim and tread water can be lifesaving.

Mirby · « **Reply #22717 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:36:03 AM »

Yeah, better safe than sorry when it comes to knowing how to swim.

Sakura Leic · « **Reply #22718 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:37:31 AM »

The thing is that I tried to learn how to swim and it never works out. I just can't turn my head and breath on my side while swimming.

Quickman · « **Reply #22719 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:43:11 AM »

I can't do the American Crawl, either. So, I simply don't do it. Instead, I do the breaststroke and sidestroke.

Mirby · « **Reply #22720 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:47:35 AM »

Yeah, there are quite a few ways to swim. Just because one method doesn't work for you doesn't mean others won't as well.

Sakura Leic · « **Reply #22721 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:49:12 AM »

But that's the method the swimming classes teach and you have to be able to that pass even the intermediate level.

Mirby · « **Reply #22722 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:50:32 AM »

Well that's just not cool. Obviously you'd need to find some other way to learn, probably from someone who understands that some people can't do that.

Sakura Leic · « **Reply #22723 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:51:59 AM »

Maybe, I would need to find one that teaches adults and not kids though.

Quickman · « **Reply #22724 on:** August 11, 2014, 02:53:00 AM »

Then don't take a swimming class. I didn't. Ask a friend who knows how to swim to teach you the other strokes.

As long as you're supervised by a swimmer, you could ostensibly learn on your own. The biggest hurdle will be overcoming the fear of getting your head wet or water up your nose. My niece is still afraid of getting water up her nose. She still holds her nose when she dives, and thus never learned to dive properly.

Hell, I never learned to dive properly, but I'm going to learn. My half-brother told me a trick to keeping my body in form, so I'll need to try it out. My problem is getting over the fear of looking stupid as I clumsily belly-flop into the pool while learning how to dive.
