first day of swim class

My first day of intermediate swim class at CCSF and I arrived over prepared. It's swim class. I expected the first day would involve jumping in the pool, being tested the basics and go right into learning new swim strokes.

This wasn't the case. I arrived early, changed into swim gear, and showered before entering the pool area. I walked out and stood there dripping wet with a tower over my shoulders staring at my classmates sitting on the bleachers, fully clothed and staring at me. I turned right back into the locker room, quickly dried myself off, changed into street clothes and joined the class on the bleachers.

Unfortunately, I didn't dry off well enough and my pants absorbed the water from my damp swimsuit which left a nice wet spot that appeared as though I failed to make it to the restroom in time. That's two embarrassing strikes against me.
