A new world.
Wow.
Why did I just discover it?
Goggles.
Yep.
I splurged yesterday... and bought my 20 buck goggles.
My swimming-mates (what do you call them!?) have been bugging me saying what a differences it makes...blah blah...
Anyways, our second last class, I've buy these grey-pink goggles and jump into the water. At first I do as I normally do, and close my eyes while going under only to realize, hey... I can open them now... Ikes!
WOW... what a diff! I can SEE. It really is like being like a fish!
It's lessens the fear of the deep end too... wowsers!
After opening my eyes for the first time underwater, I pop my head out and start laughing like that 7-year old child in me... haha... I think I was beaming. My swimming-mates, these middle-aged women, laughed with me and at my new found enthusiasm...
It's good to be able to see again...
Literally and figuratively...
