hey sharil, yeah.. SA = Shah Alam Aquatic Centre. in fact i'm going later during my lunchtime. hehe.. where do you swim?

Just wanna know if you tried swimming in natural lake? Last time used to fish/camp in melawati dam and would swim there, very nice, the feeling is totally different when swimming in the lake, you know the water is more than 100M deep, but suprisingly its easier to tread as compared to swimming pool.

wah.. you swim in the dam lake aaa?
from what i know, it's a restricted area... the front gate lock all the time..
how to enter that place?
i would like to go there also...

last time we mix with the kampung people, they;ve special passes to enter the area, we even built a big rakit, reason is before building the dam inside there got a lot of durian orchard, so now the folks need to get thier harvest. They're an unwritten understanding that we do not go near the watergate, we fish and camp on the other end of the lake, theres a stream on the other end. The pegawai also close one eye.

Before dis when i study in Shah Alam.. i always swim in University pool... u know cheap and Very.....clean.

Just once i think i swim in shah alam aquatic center, its pool the condition for me very bad....

but now i dont know where i want to find regular pool for me in KL... coz I'm 6 years in shah alam, dah biasa swim there. and i start like to

swim also when i in university.

Swimming in deep water is always easier to swim; provided there's no current. This; I think; is because larger water mass = less resistance. However, got to be very careful of undercurrents. Especially in waters which appear calm.

Not because of it's deep then you're easier to swim, it's because of the content of lake water. Lake water have more minerals source, higher salinity and resulting higher density relatively to human body compared to pool water. The theory is the same with seawater, just the factor of salinity is a bit different for each water, seawater consist more sodium but lake from the other way else....

Wow... great.. , u 4 month not swimming , i more than dat...

u mean u swim in UITM pool? i went to the aquatic center last week for the first time... its ok la, decent. not dirty but oso not clean... i like the depth, and there's no one during lunch so its nice.

how long do you usually swim?

Yup.. in UITM pool...

at deep area it pool can consider clean la.. but the outside one ... so dirty.. but at deep area always close everytime i come donno why..

hmm..normally just about 2-3 hours, sometime longer a bit..

my U pool can be consider clean,but no chicks swimming around..hehe

Erm; I was talking 'bout water depth in general. Even in a swimming pool; if the water is deeper; it's easier to move through the water compared to if the water's shallow.

going to swim tmr on chin wu plaza rakyat with my fren on 4pm any one wan join?

That place got damn a lot of gays.
Seriously.

i've never been to the pool outside, too shallow not nice to swim...

wahh... 2-3 hours means u swim quite far lohh.. so far maximum i tahan is 1h15min non stop...

chin wu plaza rakyat which area?
