Original: New skill

This summer I decided to learn a new skill -swimming. When I was a child, I always had gent to the swimming pool. In fact, I just have stood in the water and played the water ball with my friends. The reason way we went to there maybe just as we had free tickets, and it was only more interesting way to spent our summer holiday.

There are two things influence me, as below:

First thing: I tried to diving twice at two sea islands, I started to love undersea word and enjoyed that fish swimming around you.

Second thing: I saw a story about one couple, whose career are undersea cameramen. They enjoyed every undersea opportunity.

So for me, I want to learn how to swimming, which is the first step. Acutely, we have another great plan, which is that get a diving licence.

Edited: New skill

This summer I decided to learn a new skill -swimming. When I was a child, I always used to go to the swimming pool. In fact, I used to stand in the water and play with a beachball with my friends. Maybe the only reason we went there was that we had free tickets, and it was the only interesting way to spend our summer holiday.

There are two things that influenced me, as shown below:

Firstly, I tried scuba-diving twice while visiting two islands, I started to love being underwater and enjoyed the fish swimming around me.

Secondly, I saw a story about one couple, whose careers are undersea cameramen. They enjoyed every opportunity to be underwater.

So for me, I want to learn how to swim, which is the first step. Actually, my husband and I have another great plan: to get a scuba-diving licence.
