Sep 14th – Swimming Pool and Rain
After arranging and negotiating many times, I have been spending my weekend on land 
I missed one of my friend’s parties last night because of getting together with my family. Anyway, there are more chances for such those parties 
However, as I planned before, I would have a great weekend again. At late morning, I came over my friend’s and made brunch with him. We got some eggs, cheeses, breads, hams and ketchup. That’s enough. He made his own sandwhich and it was so good. I got a kind of big one.
2 slides of bread; 2 slides of cheese; 2 eggs; 1 spoon of butter; a bit muoi tieu (salt and pepper) and ketchup and drinks (any kind of drink. I got 7Up and he got Redbull). That is our regular brunch.
Kind of lazy to make pancakes this morning. My buddie, Evan, can play guitar so he played some. It is good. I cannot though. Then, we talked as usual. He is my happy buddie 
Annemie got back and we were gonna go to Victoria’s swimming pool. Brian also came over. He got back to Can Tho from Ca Mau. I did not talk much ‘cuz we ran out of time. She and I biked to Victoria. It was bright and full of sunglight on da way.
Okie, here was Victoria Hotel – 4 star hotel and the most fancy one in da town. It is in the low season now. There are a few guests in the hotel. More importantly, there was nobody in the swimming pool. Annemie told me that she has a membership card which can allow her to take along 1 person and offer her some discount on drinks, food or buying gifts there. We were lucky that nobody came to check the membership card. She led me to the toilet; we got changed. According to the pool rule, we have to take a quick shower before stepping into the pool. Hmm, we did not think so. We went directly to the pool. The water is so warm. There are 3 different depth levels: 1, 1.5 and 2.5 meter. Along the pool, there are many long chair to lay down with big red towels and of course, umberllas
I am known not able to swim. I thought I came here to see my friend swimming and I would play with water as usual. Annemie is so nice to show me how to swim; some instructions; she is such a kind girl. Well, I could not make my body float. I think I need to take a basis swimming course . Annemie said the important thing is to let the ass float. I tried and I did make it float. I used my hands to hang on the floor’s ground though. Anyway, I know the way. I waved my legs a lot. Water was everywhere around me. Annemie tried to take me to 1.5 meter level and promised to get me out of the water if I got sunk. I believed her of course. I went there. Stepped my legs down into the water strongly and a lot. That was so fun.
Then, it started to rain; lightly and got heavily later. We were still in the pool. Haha, that was so funny. I wondered if the receptionists thought we were weird girls; swimming in the rain. We sat in the pool, talked, floated, swam a bit (Annemie did). I got out of the swim once and I got cold. Man, I hate the wind; which made me so cold even though I had a big warm towel. Then, I decided to get back to the pool and sunk my body there . We also heard bells rung many times and wondered what happened. We did not see any fire, smoke or anything. Maybe it was just a practice or something.
This time of going to Vic, nobody asked me. That’s much better than the other time I went there. Or, maybe because of the low season?!?
After swimming, we got some smoothie. Oh my, I love smoothies, yogurts, breads and cakes a lot. This afternoon, I burnt a lot of energy eh?? hehe.
At weekend now, I love biking a lot. I am gonna make another biking tour again with some friends of mine. Swimming is ok (well, I do not scared of swimming; except for sliding away in the pool and then I fall down to the pool ground; that’s so scary). I think I will take swimming course soon. Duno when
YAY, Weekend with friends is so GOOD!!!
Happy weekend. T.G.I.W (Thanks God, it’s weekend!, hehe)
