A pencil dive, when you're half way down into the cool deep, finally realizing how bad you need air. Then it becomes a struggle, a battle of  pushes and pulls. It would be some much easier to give up but as your lungs shriek in despair you know its the last thing you can do.   So you get over the five seconds of struggle and you make it back to civilization again.   You continue this somewhat insane pattern of deprivation and struggle just to remind yourself how much you love the taste of air
