I could still imagine how disastrous my first pool session went. I felt cold and dizzy. Drowning and dying. Panicking underwater felt like it was end of the world for me. Starting out has never been this hard for me and water has never been my element. For some reason, I grew up becoming afraid of the bathroom shower. So it was depressing going home after and accepting my fate as a frustrated water baby.
Resignation from the course obviously looks like the easiest solution to this because I could save myself from mental and psychological impact. Somehow, it was my teacher/coach's words and my classmates' encouragement that are telling me to calm down, take my time, and try again.
Hopefully, I will become an underwater buddha by the end of this year.
Calm in withstanding external and internal pressures and steadfast in enduring it all until I reach full nirvana.
Let's see how this goes.
