we take you CD like it or not... You'll be like the little kid who doesn't want to go into the water but once he's in has lots of fun 
that was me a few years back.
we were at this state park. my high school buddies and me were hanging out. this guy`s dad came along who was a professional diver. he organized the trip.
i was 13 years old at that time. i was in high school at age 12.
everybody was swimming except for me. i was not going to jump in this lake. i figured i would be better off learning how to swim at a shallow pool.
well needless to say, the professional diver threw me in the lake.
i was standing on the edge just checking out the lake and he pushed me in.
i did not panic for some reason. i hit bottom which was about 8-10 feet and then i came up on my own. he had already jumped in to try to help me.
turned out i did not need any help. i learned to swim on my own that day.
