Experience: Drowned in A Swimming Pool

It happened ten years ago when I still could not swim well. The night before, the electricity in our house was out so my father wanted to book a hotel room for a day.

The next morning, we got up later than usual because it was a weekend. Then we went to the swimming pool. It was a weekend so the pool was very crowded. Then, I forced myself to swim in the deeper side. It was the first time for me to swim in the deeper side, unfortunately, I was drowned. Some kids saw me drowning but they didn’t help me because they could not swim well either. Fortunately, a man rescued me.

From that experience, I’ve learned how to swim well. So, now, anytime I swim, I won’t be drowned anymore. Lucky me.
