the sophomore plunge

This is me.

This is me happily walking to the end of the diving board, cracking my knuckles, gazing innocently at the sparkling water below and, with great anticipation, leaping.

This is me sailing down through the air, thinking "what is so hard about this? This isn't bad - in fact, it's rather easy."

This is me hitting the water, realizing too late that I jumped off the high-dive. Now I'm sputtering, splashing, in pain and I have water up my nose.

This is me learning how to swim.
