Week 1: Physical limits, Day 5: Against the odds, Activity 2: Swimming to safety.
Week 1: Physical limits, Day 5: Against the odds, Activity 2: Swimming to safety.
For this activity, listen to the podcast of Yusra Mardini, or read her story on her personal website.
Yusra marini was a swimmer in Damascus Syria, but she was not always a swimmer. When she was younger, she was a little bit scared and nervous to get in the pool, when the other kids were swimming, she would be be standing at the edge of the deep end of the pool, while staring into the water. Then she thought about plunging her head in first, her heart was beating fast...She was nervous, but she wasnt only scared, she was scared and excited! She was having Adrenalin, so she started breathing slowly. A few seconds later, she dipped her toes in the pool, and plunged her head in the water, just for a second, and eventually she started swimming!
She didn't want to just swim, she wanted to swim competitively, so her dad and her older sister started training her, she also entered into swimming competitions and she was winning competitions a lot. She was so confident in swimming, that she even forgot what it felt like to be scared of the water, that now the pool was her favourite place to be in, because whenever she was in the pool, she felt like she was in a different world, and she loved it! When she swam, all the noise around her stopped, and she was swimming faster and faster, all that she could only hear was her heart beat, and the water as she swam by. Every time she swam, she felt like all her problems disappeared. But when Yusra was 13, she had problems swimming could not solve, her country was at war.
Yusra and her older sister flew to her country, where the war was, they went to save people in the sea, they swam in the sea for 3 and a half hours and saved 20 people. When she was in the sea she didn't know if she would survive or not, but she survived, but she didn't only survive, she went to compete at Rio in 2016, helping to represent over 60 million displaced people from all over the world.
After that, Yusra has addressed the Untied states general assembly and world leaders, she met the US president Barack Obama. Yusra now lives in Berlin, Germany and is concentrating on her professional swimming career, her next goal is to compete at the next Olympic games in Tokyo in 2020, which is next year.
(I´m sorry if i have any mistakes in this summary.)
Yusra Mardini´s message of hope, determination and courage reminds us that those who flee their countries are capable of achieving great things.

Week 1: Physical limits, Day 4: Individual Pursuits Activity 2: What's in a name?
For this activity, imagine that you were allowed to change your name to anything that you wanted.
On your blog, tell us what you would change your name to and why you would choose that name.
Please read everything so you understand.
Hmm. If I could change my name, I would probably change it to Amelia Tu'ipulotu? I'm not really sure, it's the name I thought would "match" me? What do you think? But my parents did changed my name when I was 2 years old, it used to be Monica Olivia Tu'ipulotu, but then they changed my name to Toe'umu Tu'ipulotu, they changed my name so I would be named after my dad's mother. But I don't really mind. What name suits me the most? Toe'umu, Amelia or Monica, comment it down below.
Here's a few images of me:
