Being lazy in the swimming pool.

I went for a swim, it had to at 10:00 otherwise the sun would have focused all of its heat on me. When I touched the water it felt so nice and without thinking twice I just got in.

Being lazy and all, I decided to ask my sister to go fetch a cap. I put the cap on my head and sat on a chair in the water. This was the most relaxing thing that I have ever done in my life.

Sitting in the swimming pool with the water covering my body, just touching the top of my shoulders, leaving my head above the water and the cap providing enough shade to cover my face. A burnt face was not what I was looking for so some precautions had to be taken. I didn't use my arms or legs I just sat there, closed my eyes and listened to nature.

Thinking back I would have liked an outdoor TV and some sort of floating table that contained a variety of exotic fruits, water and different types of juice. I guess I'll do that next time.

There is literally no better way of relaxing when the sun is striving to reach its maximum temperature. I want this to be a new trend, I even thought of a name for it... "pool-sitting". "Pool-sitting" - sitting on a chair in the swimming pool. While pool sitting you can even take a paddle and paddle yourself around in the pool.

So what if your pool is too deep and you can't sit comfortably on a chair in your pool? Well I suggest taking a few chairs and putting them on top of each other, making the sitting profile of the top chair higher than only using one chair. Or asking a neighbour with a shallow pool if you could "pool-sit" in their swimming pool.

Advantages - no sunburn, no heat, ultimate relaxation, ultimate escape from the wrath of the sun.

Disadvantages - I would like to say none but chilling too long in the water causes wrinkled fingers and toes. After leaving the water, wrinkled toes and fingers will become normal after a few minutes.

Please be careful while "pool-sitting". I will not be held responsible for any damage or lives lost while "pool-sitting". "Pool-sitting" should be done at own risk and for children under the age of eighteen parental supervision is advised.

Enjoy your summer and be sure to try out this new trend.
