I Love Swimming

I like sport but only some of sports that I like. They are swimming, badminton and basketball. I love swimming better than badminton and basketball because many people said that swimming can help us to be taller and I want to be a tall women. Although basketball can help us to be taller but I think it so hard to practice. So, I choose swimming because it is more simple, easier and nicer than basketball.

Before I could swimm, I thought that swimming was difficult and I couldn’t to do it. But after I tried and practiced regularly, I can do it now. I want to express my special thanks to my friends, who has helped me to learn and practice it. Since that time, I often go swimming with my friend to a swimming pool in my hometown. Recently, I seldom go swimming because of my campus activities. I hope I can swimm again in my spare time.
