I don't remember much of this dream, but it had me very exhausted that I couldn't jog prperly, and yawning for the whole day!

I was walking around our house, and came upon a bug hole dug out in our backyard. It would seem that we were getting a pool built. Great care was taken that none of the trees were chopped down. At that point, I see that it was just a big, dry "hole"

While I was changing in to my old worn out bathing suit, happy I was to swim. In the corner of my eye, the pool was already made -- tiles, water, chlorine, you name it! I also saw in my peripheral vision, my One-Time Fling (same guy in Dresses, Dinners, Dolphins and Dad) in his white t-shirt and blue shorts was watching me.

A classmate from my old swimming class appeared and challenged me to a race, after lecturing me on how easily give up on relationships. I got into the water first, enjoying the deep end... however, each time I surfaced, I just kept on being pulled down. I only floated back up when the race was about to start.

The race was a one-way the length of the pool, using my most hated stroke: the Freestyle, or Crawl. I was doing everything all wrong -- my kicks were too shallow, I wasn't kicking fast enough, my arms were not in sync with the rest of my body, and my breathing was shot. I knew I was going to lose and that I was going to get a lecture again...

... Until I touched the other end of the pool a few seconds before my classmate did. She let me off without a word.
