Thing #52: Learn to swim

I share at least one common characteristic (our passion to excel) with Michael Phelps and that's not our swimming abilities. Nevertheless I can definitely float, I sort of swim and if needed I can go from A to B. That's enough for me. After all my favourite quote when it comes to the swimming is that: "I prefer seafood to the sea". If you don't believe me, then look at Thing #62!

Thing #63: Things Your Parents Say They'll Tell You When You're Older

I am trying hard to remember what they used to say, but I am failing so far. In fact, they seem to prefer the more generic but universally applicable: "You will see when you grow up". I've now grown up and I can testify for their infinite wisdom. More worryingly I have started using the very same words... Moral outcome of the story: "If you are still young and not boring, then listen to your parents!"
