How inconsiderate some people can be! Very irritating to come across people like when you are very motivated.
I had wanted to swim today, having postpone my date with the pool for the past 2 days. Furthermore, coming home early was another push for me to fully utilize my time and myself. I am in progress to get fit and on diet. So naturally, with the pool so conveniently located in this apartment unit, swimming is the first choice, if not walking.
Hence, with the grey skies looming above, I had thought that I should not miss the opportunity. Blaming the weather for the misses in swimming is just too convenient since now is the rainy season. So, my motivated-self decided today, I must go before it starts to pour.
I changed and went down, all done by 5. Walking towards the pool, I did hear children playing in the pool. Voices told me that there were quite a number of them. I suspected they must the same group of children who plays there almost each time I past by. Yes, I was right. The same group of children, playing about in the pool and it's surrounding.
I had thought it was alright. The pool's big enough to accommodate all of us. So, undeterred, I went it. They were outside of the pool, playing a game of catch, I presume. I swam, at the side of the pool.
Barely completing a lap, I noticed that some of them using the pool to like get away from being caught by their friend. I was appalled! After running barefooted outside the pool, they just conveniently dipped in! Then, there was the thing of not giving way. I was swimming laps, they were walking around in the pool. Do let me past when I was coming, but no. They instead forced me to stop, and divert my course!
Gosh, how inconsiderate people can be! Kids or not. Wonder why our children of such character? Where's the problem, what's the best solution? Sigh, for the our future generation, so bleak..Shudder at this thought!
