Re-Evaluating Goals

The local gym near my house is the Ian Thorpe Aquatic Center. Aptly named because Ian Thorpe is a great swimmer.

I am not. Not only am I not Ian Thorpe, I am not a great swimmer. I am not even a good swimmer, as I discovered today when I tried out the gym facilities for the first time. This has put a doubt into my mind as to whether I should attempt to learn how to surf, considering I would not like to drown.

I would hate to die whilst trying to swim back to shore, thus deprive the crocodiles, sharks, spiders, snakes, and dropbears a chance to kill me.
