i saw Weezer!

so as you all should know by now, i went to see Weezer and Dashboard Confessional. They were amazing, and played most of my favorite songs.

On friday, i let something bad happened. I took my roommate's siblings to the pool, since she was sleeping. The two kids seem to know how to swim, so i didn't really watch them constantly. suddenly, the little sister, jen was calling my name to help dan (her little brother, 10yrs) I ran and reached my hands into the water to pick him up. it was one of the scariest moment of my life. i thought what would have happened, if he was in a worse condition. Grrr..i was really angry with myself. aside from all of this, my roommates didn't believe me that he was drowning. she just said that he was swallowing water...??


so what is drowning? isn't it when someone is under water and can't come up?
