One has to hope for his sake that he became more confident as he got older.

I normally enter the pool at the nearest point to the changing rooms, but yesterday some kid was sitting on the steps. So I walked to the middle entrance, but that was similarly blocked, so I ended up walking the full length of the pool before entering. It actually didn't feel bad at all, so I think I must be more confident than I used to be.
