yes, and i even got enrolled (unwillingly) into water polo courses by my older sisters. understandably, the coach hated me because i was overweight and a slow swimmer.

there was a bit of inappropriate verbal harassment from the older members of the water polo team. after that, i got self-conscious and eventually stopped swimming.

maybe i'll try swimming again.
