Letter to a Pen Pal about Swimming and Daily Life

I wish you a happy spring at your place in the Queens England. Sorry for my English – I know that it isn’t flawless. It was nice to hear from you, long time no see, as the smart people say. I think your interest is quite awesome; I would love to try river rafting. I will tell a little about myself. I’m 14 years old, and live in a little city called Birkeroed. The city itself is alright, but sometimes it’s boring to live here due to size of it. It isn’t all bad though - I’m excited to live here because I got a special interest. I swim. I’m training seven times at week, maybe its sounds like a lot, but it isn’t that much. When you’re first in it, you are finding it very nice and comfortable. For as long time I remember, I have been swimming, so I really don’t know, how i got interested in it. Many people just think I’m a nerd, and that I don’t want to socialize with them, because sometimes I skip birthdays and other special days, so I can swim. I swim in the local swimming club called sigma. It’s a bit annoying, that there is no one from my class who are swimming. Swimming is a very nice sport for your body; it doesn’t hurt your body, if you can use the technique properly. Another bonus from swimming is that you learn to be disciplined – an example is that you never will answer you teacher back or that you always meet on time. If you’re meeting too late at my swimming club, you will get an angry teacher, who not will teach you as normal. But there is also something bad about swimming. Swimming means something special for me, can’t explain it, all I know is just make me happy and healthy every day in the year. You will use your spare time at swimming but on the other hand you will have less time to spend with your friends from school.
