En's First Swimming Lesson : Jul-2015

Since En has announced that she wanted to learn how to swim at the start of the June holidays, she has remained serious and resolute about her intention even after the holidays had ended. Much as I want to enrol her for swimming class, I was not sure if there would be a suitable timing. After I mulled over it and discussed with Victor and subsequently En herself, I sent a text message to one of the swimming instructors' contact numbers on my mobile; I have been asking some friends of their children's swimming instructors contact to store juz in case I might need it one day. I believe the first such number was when I had wanted to enrol Qi and Xuan to learn how to swim! So many years ago!!

After looking at the 3 instructors' contact on whatsapp, I sent a text message to Desmond. Looked like he is still an active swimming coach from his profile picture! After I asked him for an available beginner class, he also readily asked for my preferred timing and swimming pool. It was a Tuesday evening that I first text Desmond, by Tuesday night, I have confirmed a Sunday morning 8am @hougang pool swimming lesson for En!!

En was exhilarated, most excited!! Forgoing my only available-sometimes Sunday sleep-in morning is more tolerable after seeing En's excitement..

I had thought Desmond was Kristie's contact and maybe Nicole's swimming instructor. However from a recent chat, I realized he isn't!!? Now, I really wonder from where or whom I got Desmond's contact. Regardless, En enjoys her swimming lesson tremendously!!
