i used to have the same problem when i was younger... i know you said you cant blow water out of your nose, but give this a shot...

while you are standing in a pool, close your eyes and breathe in

exhale though your nose, keeping your mouth shut, and slowly submerge your head

as you run out of breath resurface, but make sure you are still breathing out once you get out

if your nose doesnt hurt, reapeat over and over again until you can do it with your eyes open/moving/diving etc.

if this doesnt work, just wear the nose plugs and get it over with, they are kind of kewl anyway

I'm sorry, but you only have three options. The first is to not go underwater. The second is wearing those "geeky" goggles, and the third is holding your nose. These are the only ways that you can protect your nose. The safest one that still allows you to go underwater is wearing the goggles. I have never seen anyone insulted because of them, and maybe some cute boy who has the same problem will come over and ask if he can borrow them. ;-)
