Picture this. It feels like 100 degrees outside and you’re sweating profusely. There’s a pool nearby, calling your name. It instantly cools you off. This, right here, is why pool days are the best. Of course, there’s the ocean and lakes too, but pools don’t have animals in them.
With a pool, you can have water fights. When I was growing up and even to this day, my brother and I have always had water fights. We splash and dunk each other repeatedly. Usually I’m the one to get annoyed, but it’s all fun and games!
You can also tan too. I tan just fine while wearing sunscreen! During the summer, tanning is an almost must for me! I don’t get spray tans or go to tanning beds, so the sun is my friend on these hot days. I have to say, wear sunscreen! It does hurt when you take a shower at night and the hot water hits your sunburn. The pool is a blessing when you’re tanning and sweating, you can easily cool off!
When I was in middle school, pool parties always made you the cool kid. Everyone loved them! I mean, what’s not to love? I never got the chance to have pool parties because my birthday is in February and I didn’t have a pool, but I went to my fair share and they were definitely the best parties.
Another good thing about swimming is being able to work out! Working out in a pool is easy but it works! You don’t even have to do something strenuous, you can just keep moving. Wade in the water!
You don’t have to wear makeup at the pool either. Or look presentable. You can just throw on your bathing suit and tie your hair up or put a hat on. Then you’re good to go! If you wear makeup, you may just scare all of the children away when your mascara starts running down your face. This can also be a good thing!
The one thing I’ve seen the most through social media is people swimming with the cutest floaties. There are swans, donuts, and fruit looking floats. All of them are the cutest ways to swim in style!
Or you can be like Beyoncé and swim in money. This is how I like to swim, obviously.
