quick thinking

I've played waterpolo this year and my coach always told us that playing this sport always involved quick thinking! and fast! haha but truly, i never once actually thought about what i was doing! I would go in there all scared that some big girl was gonna drown me to death,....turns out they can....but they i'm alive!,.....yet to my coach!,......quick thinking is not always the best, at times i guess u should just take time to realize,....ooh and never let the enemy grab a hold of you,....hard enough to pull you!
