unwell
i think jiaolian's finally cutting down on trg intensity. 6k on t1 and 2.8k on k4.. i missed my pb by 3secs and jl gave this disappointed look when he told me my timing. argh im already pushing myself as hard as i can pls! bah but failure la, i turned around after 500m buoy going out for my 3rd k for the 4k row thing. biceps/deltoids/shoulder area hurts pretty bad when i row now.. suck suckk. i was crying-ish during 2k timing boos. oh i realise why nash i good substitute name for bloody mary cos it's much easier to say when im yelling at her to help me move faster.. =/ well talking to my boat helps yes.
nationals is drawing near. hmm and at the rate gaby's improving, im quite sure she can make it to finals. she's wayy better than i was at this time last year. imba manz.. ah right and the number of injuries in the team has increased.. scary. hmm and i miss having the rest of the girls around.. loves all of yoos!
holiday to mersing was fun. very awful timing but lol i guess being with the family can be quite fun.. my family is lame lame and we laugh at the silliest things gosh. omg yar and we didnt book a hotel before that and we saw this hotel tt looked quite nice tt was perched on a hill. then when we drove up and parents went to the lobby, we waited in the car and scanned the hotel exterior and the best description for it is definitely dilapidated. like half the hotel was missing la pls. and windows were bare and the walls were rotting. but i guess it must've seen better days..
then parents came back to the car and we were like lol kay phew let's find another hotel. and they were doing tt "oh-noes-no room" thing and we were telling our parents bout the sad state of the hotel when dad suddenly turned the engine off and told us that he indeed got us a room and there was sudden silence in the car.
eh but mom mentioned earlier that she wanted a hotel tt had buffet breakfast but this hotel didnt. after we checked out the next day, mom told us that she felt hypnotized and got us checked in, despite them not having breakfast and not having checked the state of the rooms or anything like that. in fact, we were the only guests in the whole hotel wtg!
lol but we actually stayed in this other building that was a little further away from the main hotel and was 3 storeys high and our room had a GORGEOUS view of the sea, which made up for the relatively shabby state of the hotel and freaky vibe.. =/
spent most of our timing eating i think. dad thinks i eat alot boos! cos yst when we were driving home, instead of asking everyone whether we'd like to eat summore, he asked me whether i needed anymore food cos he says im the chief. nyeh. oh but i did eat alot ah. and it was very very very nice.. =D though meera and nw reminded me not to eat so much just because it's malaysia. but lol it would've been a waste if i hadnt. malaysia's food paradise yay!
bah i've been getting headaches alot lately. and i feel my body heating up nao gar!
im definitely definitely gonna screw econs and seahist for ct2. gotta try salvage the rest now. kay off to mug!

the time is now
stupid title hahaha! pretty good row today.. 11.6k on t1 and 2.4k on k4. when i went up for break during halftime, jiaolian said "today t1 very good! -pats back" O.o boat's gliding now apparently, no more jerky movements. just in time woo..
anw not every one of us had to do time trials cos some of us were confirmed rowing.. watching them row was kinda heartbreaking.. as in our teammates are in the lanes, fighting among themselves to row for nats, which is The competition we've worked so hard for, yet not everyone will get to compete in the end. i know tt nazzer says that competitive sports are all like that but still, it wasn't sposed to be this way.. ):
if prav manages to beat gaby on monday, there's a chance that she'll be competing.. 3 other j2 girls might not be competing as it is. and to think that im rowing two races. i feel awful, bother..
no 2k timing today but i pushed myself quite some yup.. i guess i basically tried to keep pace with meera and kept in my mind what i wanted to achieve for nats. gold for t1. i spose i've always had this goal from the start, but sometimes i'd think "how on earth am i sposed to beat certain unmentionable schools eh?" god and worse still i dont even know how the other t1s are faring at this point in time. the whole team is expecting no less than gold from me. yes there's relatively less competition for t1 cos there arent any nat team rowers but meh? no pressure whatsoever manz..
fyi every boat that gets thru to finals will contribute points to the school and if i manage to get gold, that's 6 points to rj. and that is why i simply must get gold. WAH stress. D:
didnt go for trg on thurs tho cos of fever (i bet it's cos we ran in the rain on wed!) and basically mugged at home.. met nazzer on fri to mug.. yar and we popped by the pc show awhile and i've decided tt i feel quite claustraphobic in huge crowds. dont like gar.. i love nazri yay! (random fact hoho)
fathers' day tmr. mom's going out with dad for wedding so then sisters and i are gonna prepare fried chicken, garlic bread and mashed potato. and ordering pizza YES! -happy!
oh haha more pictures from women's open!
Short-term k4! <3! (ge's back in our boat now uhuh)
Single Boat Babes! =D
us being dao minus michelle! jr's dao face is cmi lol
our j3s look so white! and pretty and feminine~! =)
me and a sinking k1. and deb trying to save me.. bah.
okeh i try to mug nao.

it started raining pretty heavily otw to macs today and we couldnt run gorilla hill route.. ): -secretly relieved. but rain got lighter and we ran terrible trio route anws.. lol but after 12 rounds of monkey hill last week, terrible trio doesnt feel too terrible anymore yay!
good row today. 6k on t1 and 5.2k on k4. t1 2k timing improved by 15-17secs yayy! k4 was quite good too but we were rather unstable at times.. i lost my paddle a few times during tilts and whacked my arm against the combing and now i have a bruise near my elbow boos..
omg and i chipped my right paddle blade wtg! was in k4 and we were moving past the pontoon and my paddle got stuck underneath and i yelled at them to stop and tried to pull the boat back but it was too late and there was a Crack sound and now there's like a big-enough chip gar. it shouldnt affect my row much but meh i felt so sad! and like the paddle's been my trusty companion for so long (even longer than bloody mary!) and i didnt even give her a name! and i felt so awful. so thanks to the girls' contribution, my paddle has a name: *drumrolls.. FLASH! cos my frequency will be so fast and it'll be like a flash. or someth. =/
Flash and Nash speeding down the lane~
WHEE!
oh sports doc appt this aftn finally. back's okay-ish now but my deltoids'(sp?) been hurting lately.. so yar apparently i strained my shoulder rotator muscle thingies.. lol! just gotta try to relax abit or someth ah..
t1 and k1 showdown on sat & mon. time trials.. may the best man win ehs? everyone's improved tremendously, it ought to be a close fight.. I STILL THINK EVERYONE'S DAMN PRO NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS KAY! (dont think all of em would read this but,) jiayou all the way!

finally
yst morning, otw to macs, i was praying for goodluck and basically to keep calm.. then i looked at the sky and there was a bunch of pretty clouds and the sun was peeking out from behind it, and i thought, "today's gonna be a good day" =)
nazzer sweetheart darling came for my race yst whee~! it started raining after the 7th or 8th race tho so my race was pushed back about 3.5hrs.. spent that time with nw yup.. there was a hold up during the race before ours and we waited at the start line for about 30mins. it was still drizzling and we were freezing so i allowed myself to be angry so tt my blood would be warmer hoho! nw had to leave at 12 but he actually stayed till my race ended, which was ard 2.30 or so.. ahh lovelove! lol.
kinda overslept today and missed meemee's race.. 3 caps occurred today and it was really very awful.. ugh well they'll definitely be back with a vengeance for nats manz.. go go! oh and our j1s are zomg pro!
oh dear but afterwards, the pretty girl who saved me, capped during her race. selene says she's a super pro natl k1 rower so capping shouldnt be something she's used to, yes? she was crying when she reached the pontoon in the speedboat. ugh im not gonna touch a k1 again anytime soon.. D:
hmm so women's open this year was alright i guess. could've been better but owells we'll just show em during nats eh? i had an msn convo with na on friday night bout the inspirational blog posts by the team and she said,
pictures soon. =)
and indeed it was. 3rd for u19 k4 1000m, yo. improved from our pb by 9secs! i was quite disappointed right after the race though cos we lost 2nd to nj by a split second and michelle said tt i wasn't catching water towards the end.. i guess there's no point dwelling on what-ifs but haha it really was a good race la. cos 1. there's improvement! and 2. we really really fought till the last buoy and the feeling is great..
lol and omg finally getting something for my efforts is so sweet! before my race, i was thinking of the previous times when i was So close to getting a medal and i realized tt i desperately wanted to win this race cos i didnt know how much longer i could stay strong and deal with such disappointments.. but haha yay. =D..

kinda overslept today and missed meemee's race.. 3 caps occurred today and it was really very awful.. ugh well they'll definitely be back with a vengeance for nats manz.. go go! oh and our j1s are zomg pro!
um yeah and i did someth very embarrassing today.. deb wanted to go row a k1 at the pond and i was like Yay okay i wanna row k1 too! and bern made me pinkypromise that i wont do anything stupid. cos everyone assumes i'd do someth stupid. humph!
so yeah the first time i pushed away from the pontoon, i capped. =/ then i tried again. this time i managed to row out to somewhere in the pond. and i realized that the bunch of em who were at our rj area were watching me row cos i rowed funny apparently. i think the boat was trembling like crazy and i braced like 10 times just to stabilize myself. eh at least i manage to recover from practically vertical tilts okay! (t1 ftw!) so anw yeah after 2 near caps, i finally capped. and i spose i turned my boat over a little too late cos it started filling up with water super fast and was sinking and it finally ended up vertical in the water! omg and i was panicking like crazy and deb was giving me her wtf expression.
then in the distance, i saw the most wonderful most amazing chiobu row towards me in a k1 with a no plate. i told her tt it's okay cos she has a race to row but she insisted on helping me and omg she's so amazing! but it didnt really work ah, then some guy came in a red k1 and saved me wooh! he said he's done this a million times, "okay no, maybe a few hundred times" and i told him this is my first. then he asked me the funniest qn ever. "are you competing later?" lol! me:"thankfully no." so anw when he finally got my boat back in the right position, his friends on the pontoon cheered damn loud. -faints and dies. so right i guess next time i wanna embarrass myself, i should do it when the whole of macritchie isn't watching. jr said that the scf ppl actually stopped midway through an announcement on the mic to see what the commotion was about.
and of course the team showed great camaraderie by laughing at me.. their first instinct after seeing me cap was to take pictures.. -.- yar and bern figured tt next time she ought to be more specific when she tells me "dont do stupid things"
oh dear but afterwards, the pretty girl who saved me, capped during her race. selene says she's a super pro natl k1 rower so capping shouldnt be something she's used to, yes? she was crying when she reached the pontoon in the speedboat. ugh im not gonna touch a k1 again anytime soon.. D:
hmm so women's open this year was alright i guess. could've been better but owells we'll just show em during nats eh? i had an msn convo with na on friday night bout the inspirational blog posts by the team and she said,
lol so eventhough we didnt own all the other boats, i think we did show em what raffles canoeing is all about. eugene said this on the guys' blog: "we will fight till the end together". it's not the end yet and yes we will fight.
RAFFLES ROW FTW!
RAFFLES ROW FTW!
pictures soon. =)

stupid monkeys
monkey hill before row is ggxxyyzz. WAH pain.. D: plus i didnt have dinner nor breakfast so i puked out basically just stomach acids (priya says it's bile but it has a sharp and sour taste, which is the defn for acid, cos i cant find stomach acid on dictionary.com. hoho!).. yar so i puked a few times in between and after run. gross.. 12 rounds on monkeyhill. -dieded.
then pretty soon after, we took out boats and had water trg. all of us were aching everywhere. run before row is definitely teh shit. 8k on k4 and 3k on t1. some j1 guy took nash for c1 and i stood at the pontoon in the rain till he came, and by then the single boaters finished 1 500 redi.. ): owells and selene and jiaqi are owning my ass for 200m sets redi.. but lol i beat them for last one cos jiaqi told me to stop slacking.. ><
the girls scammed deb after trg. first they were trying to scam me by saying that it was my fault tt we're having more land sets cos i said i wanted more. or something. then i became public enemy no1. then deb came along and after they told her tt we're running another 12rounds on monkey hill, she went crazy. her reaction was extreme, to say the least. im quite sure she was gonna kill me there and then.
but of course, thank god and merciful bern, no more pt.
lil sis came back from beijing yst. and yar i guess i missed her.. we had swensens and YES MEGA BURGER!!! and parents think im very smart cos i knew how to make full use of the students' offer thingy. O.o we got 6 meals and 2 sundaes for $90 or something.. =/ ohyar and sis bought lotsa little gifts and she made us choose what we want.. lol cute..
sunday, mon and tues were filled with uh mugging and nothing else much basically..
sad life!
i hate caring too much about you.

woah
haha Fever pitch is still lovely. jimmy falon is yay! and i watched Speed before that (Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock yay yay!), which reminded me of The Lakehouse, which is woohyay! -pleased.
ohyeh i cant believe i forgot to mention this in my previous entry, but haha my lovely prata babies, ie. Part As who are now Part Cs and just recently completed their Specialists' course and one of em called me on thursday night and out of 11 of em who went for the course (not all 20(or is it 18/17 now?) could go cos of the 70% thing. die hq.), 6 of em got awards out of the 12 available. course best. 1 company best. 2 pltn best. ifc best (ohshit or was it someth else?). and gsk best. AMAZING phwoar! alrights gosh it's been so long since i've heard from the company or anything ncc related, save for pltnmates. but yeah, manz i miss my babies so so much.. D:
hoho ncc totally initated me to the world of physical torture and mental strength.
which reminds me, trg today was Painful. i had breakfast too late so yeah was feeling god-awful. swallowed what tasted like vomit a few times cos i was rowing. and k4 is just Awful cos you cant stop. even when you feel like crap. 8k on t1 and 7.6k on k4. exciting stuff
ohyeah i was browsing through my phone dictionary today on a whim and discovered something rather interesting.
kay so firstly i always thought that doppelganger (a ghostly double or counterpart of a living person) had some supernatural attachment to it cos sis once told me that apparently there have been occurences where people have seen their doppelganger in a situation that somewhat foretold the way in which they would die. but well i guess the dictionary reference doesnt imply that.
butBut on the other hand,
Fetch(according to my phone dictionary): the apparition or double of a living person. formerly believed to be a warning of that person's impending death. AHAH! fascinating, yes? actually no i think it's just another word for doppelganger. nyeh.
oh hmm i think stability's all the mind. with reference to canoeing, of course. cos like i rmb early last year, i was terrified of the water and i would wobble about in a t1 (yes, it is a fat and practically uncapsizeable boat) and manage to even cap a few times. simply because i believed that i was unstable and all that. ohwells random.
most of the single boaters have been improving quite exponentially. then there's Me, who hasnt hit her old pb in a thousand million years and deproving like crap. sometimes i guess giving up is such a tempting option. pushing myself in and out of the water (and i believe that every other canoeist is familiar with this as well) is just damn tiring and painful and having to bring ourselves to get back in our boat the next trg and the next and the next.. and it's so much worse when you just dont seem to be getting any better. im scared. im Freaking terrified. but ugh i guess i just gotta stay strong, for the girls and for my own sanity. yeah.. so i just gotta keep pushing.
we're almost there.
3 years is a long time.. im the most patient girlfriend in the whole world yeah!

confused~!
nyeh just watched 'I am legend' on vcd and the ending scene is different ZOMG!
okeh since you cant possibly watch it in the cinemas anymore, the ending goes like this,
1. will smith and the woman, Anna, and her son, Ethan, go down to his lab in the basement, followed close by the infected people/vampire creatures .
2. so the three of them go into the room with thick glass walls, where a vampire girl lay, having been injected with the possible vaccine earlier on in the show.
3. Anna saw that the vampire girl was getting better and realizes that wow the vaccine actually worked!
3. the vampire chief dude is still slamming relentlessly against the glass and the rest of the vampire dudes are howling and stuff
4. then will smith has a revelation!
5. he rmb-ed his daughter saying during their last moments together, "daddy look it's a butterfly~!"
6. then he looks at the cracks on the glass and realizes that it forms the shape of a butterfly.
7. then he looks back at Anna and notices a butterfly tattoo at the nape of her neck.
8. then he withdraws a sample of the vampire girl's blood and passes this to Anna and tells her to hide in this cubby hole thing at the back of the room and to stay there till dawn, when the vampires will retreat/melt, then leave for the 'survivors' colony' to pass them 'the cure'.
9. Anna tells him to stay with them but he says, No cos they wont go away.
10. then he closes the door, grabs a hand grenade from one of the drawers and charges towards the bloody vampire bastards.
11. at dawn, Anna drives off for the colony (and makes it there safely), with her voice in the background saying how Will Smith sacrificed his life in finding the cure something something.
if you wanna know the alternate ending in the vcd (they explain this strange phenomenon as well), WATCH THIS!
http://www.firstshowing.net/2008/03/05/must-watch-i-am-legends-original-ending-this-is-amazing/
and i shall quote the dude on the site, "It's rare that I'm this moved by something like an alternate ending, but this was truly breathtaking!" hah liyana! am not strange.
freaking weird..
im gonna do physics now.. INEFFICIENT MUGGING GAR!
trg tmr ftw! im back in the other k4 apparently. for NWKC next week at least.. strange strange..

dirty sexy money
i find the way the dude who says Dirty Sexy Money on the channel 5 trailer for the show(what dyou call him ah?).. well in any case, he says it funny. but the show's pretty interesting, go watch! and watch Fever Pitch on saturday at channel 5 10pm! i watched it at cameron highlands while on holiday and i think it's a mush but pretty show yay.. ><
i think i've been watching too much tv.. and wayy too much psp-ing too!
ohyeh! on the North-South mrt line, ard Kranji/Yew tee or Admiralty/Woodlands, the 'voice woman' (ack honestly, what dyou call em??) will say "somethingsomething going to Johor Bahru, you can take bus no. ** from Marsiling mrt station. thankyou" anw point is, the way she says Johor Bahru is funny cos it sounds slutty and skank. dont ask me why.. =/ seriously go listen out for it haha!
kay another random thought. just read prav's blog and she was saying how she'd make her son join canoeing/water polo and her daughter will join canoing/track/canoeing. lol so i gave it some thought, and i think that i want all my kids to be able to swim (cos i cant and it's sad) and they must have some musical/artistic ability! learn guitar/violin/piano, be able to dance and it'll be nice if they can draw somewhat but it's okay if they cant do any of those cos i cant either owells (grade 1 piano ftw~!).. sports-wise, i spose i'd like them to be somewhat inclined to a sport but i dont mind if they're not, just not book-ish and frail.. EH! i want my kids to be everything im not! what is this.. =/
saw youngest sis off at the terminal3 earlyearly yst morning with parents.. she's in beijing now for some cultural festival thing doing malay dance.. -.- -jealous! ahwell hope she comes home safe.. knocked out when i got home, then went with parents and younger sis to jb.. i ate alot heh.. (:
ohyeah talked to parents bout trg frequency this month.. i can only go for 3 per week instead of 4, and parents arent too happy with that even so owells just gotta make do i guess.. to top it off, i've been having chest pains.. i'd take deep breaths to alleviate the pain but then i'd get intense sharp pain in my back within the same area. happened at least four times yst bother..
okeh. really gotta clear 3 topics for physics by today, or DIE! =/

trg today was verily gg. we rowed 11.6k only today but i felt awfully shagged, dunno why. and after my 2k timing, as i was carrying nash up, jiaolian said, "ey what happened? today 2k not good" "yeah.." "yaryaryar" so yeah jl's not very happy with me lately ohnoes.. oh but he's been sending me off to die and choke on meera's backwash cos he wants us to push each other. t1 and Ak1 are completely different boats so whaii! D=
monkeyhill is still hatred. my left shin was giving me problems again. i couldnt decide if it was sweat or tears tt blinded me during the last sprint up. soo and i decided tt our legs cant carry our body weight anymore. SMS club ftw lol..

met nw for takoyaki again.. honestly, the only reason i visit jp so faithfully is for their heavenly takoyaki nyeh.. im a pig..
oh py, meera hongcheng and i left trg early yst for seahist makeup lecture cum tutorial.. i only barely managed to finished 2k timing, tho i wasnt sposed to cos of lightning threat. ohwells..

MEMORABLE
HAHA i forgot to add! the most LOL-ing thing bout today haha.. after our k4 capped during first 2k timing, we tried to self-rescue. i went in first, did a dip thing and sticking one foot in before nose-diving into my seat. jr on the other hand took forever to get in haha (cos she says her legs were too long) but yar finally got in but facing me instead of the front hahaha! then meera tried to get in but failed lol. finally a pj k2 came to help and yar so we got saved. >< they said im like a monkey cos i got into the boat strange(after our 2nd cap) and like a c rower woo..
eh yar and the girls said tt i can do jumping jacks fast only cos im short and have short limbs! AM NOT SHORT! not really.. D:
kay that's all. haha amused.
eh yar and the girls said tt i can do jumping jacks fast only cos im short and have short limbs! AM NOT SHORT! not really.. D:
kay that's all. haha amused.
push
today's trg was teh ouch. 7k on t1 incl 500m time trials. not bad ah got improvement but muddy beat me by abit cos i maxed out before 250m i think.. =/ 2k timing was timing-wise better than usual i spose, but jiaolian said "today, not good." ): ah hell, but i got the t1s to all try the k2 2k timing plan(or at least from what i observed ah) and i think it works pretty well so i'll cont. working on it uhuh..
right after 2k timing(and i was still panting away like a buffalo), the k4 girls were out at the pontoon redi so i hadta rush up, keep nash, grab a drink and my cap then plopped right into the k4 and 2k timing straight away. i was like shitttt. but we capped ard 750m and it was super sudden. after rowing back in our new t4. the water level was near the combing and water rushed in everytime we tilt and i'd shriek.. nyeh. so anw the problem was apparently tt my strokes were very diff from the rest. so i tried to correct it, then it was better but second 2k timing wasnt too good either.. and jiaolian made me 4th man as well and it's so weird gar. i hope he moves me back to 3rd man.. =( owells so 9k on k4..
jumping jacks is fun.. =D reminds me of ncc. we did 365 complicated jumping jacks for one of the years for achievement day. hella shiok.. love it. oh bern gave us Royce chocs yummy!
recap of the week!
wed: sch was okay. na and lakshmi ponned! lessons weren't too useful but my pen completely dried up during ihist, which was really lucky cos i only had one pen tt day so i managed to buy a new for gp ct. which was quite crap ah. see how it goes.. team talk after tt.
thurs: civics was awful cos the teacher was rather awful and the stories i heard bout him was tsktsk. the video was interesting tho.. ohyeh we got our yearbooks. i look fat. =/ maths tut was draining and my brain wasnt working too good. then na and i went for our 'break' with the guys at ri. food was good but they were playing with my food(which btw just looks better organized. im not anal!) and making the fish, chicken and wantan do drills. bullshit la haha.. and NIGEL did someth very stupid but the canteen was rather empty by then save for a table full of mats who stared and laughed. =) yar and i bought some of the girls bookmarks..
ohyar and i ran after sch with taufiq cos pe was cancelled. where btw i was told to go for Fitness cos i didnt take napfa yet. -.- yeah we ran some funny sets on the track, around pe block and also in the mph later on. i ran approx 10-11 rounds. taufiq-the-lazy kept stopping every once in awhile eventho he forced me to run summore.. showered and met nazri at jp for lunch afterwards.. takoyaki ftw!! & frozen yogurt is lovee..
friday: sch was ohkay. hed pizza hut with lq and linda (who treated us to chicken. lovelove!) and fungs who just pimped(which is a word tt we've decided isnt really deragatory cos the meaning of various words change over time due to its usage. which really is rather strange, cos it's usage should depend on its meaning to begin with.. ohnoes confused! ah yar depends on context too. ohwells) cos he was going to gym afterwards..
got home and watched ICJ court presentation thing for Pedra Branca results. rtm, which btw is a malaysian channel, was having a live telecast whereas no spore channel bothered to show it lol.. anw dude was reading from this thick book thing(no wonder ah results took so long to come out, they had to produce the book first haha) and so we flipped channels quite alot before the final result came out much much later. and in some foreign language, how silly. so we only found out the results when the msian reporter said in malay, (the whole report was read in english to begin with, i duno why they had live telecast. =/) something along the lines of "tt was very sad news for msia.." so yeah hurrah spore? na was surprised by my nationalistic sentiments but i guess taking history kinda screwed me up quite abit. inter-state tensions for seahist was very enlightening.. =) shant say more..
ohyeah and i went for maulidur rasul at the mosque where parents usually go for religion lessons. i kinda like having my throat hurt singing religious stuff, which i spose you can call hymns. strange..
watched sweeney todd at night, which thanks to nazri and mommy dearest, was spoiled for me and it was awful. i like surprises and the show would've been awesome if i hadnt known the ending bother..
okeh tired. should do some maths now or something. eh super long entry seh!

passion
this is rather belated but i spose it's just to wrap up my thoughts prior to our hardcore june trgs before the final Nationals.
so yup approx 6 weeks left and i guess everyone's pretty much concluded that we're not ready to give the other schools a run for their money. we have politics now of all times too, so yeah i guess things are a bit screwed up..
on my part, i spose i ought to clarify what i said on wed. it's still true that i, unlike most of the other girls, dont exactly look forward to trainings all the time, or even do extra sets/gym/run on my own. i guess it does imply tt im not as passionate or hardcore as them. i suppose it's partly cos 1. im lazy and i hate running. 2. i've honestly never had to work very hard to get results(not in my studies tho haha. D:). i've always been rather physically fit. plus getting into the snr team last year, and getting all those extra water time, i still didnt appreciate what i had. 3. i figured that on my non-trg days, i might as well not tire myself out cos i already do tt on trg days= too shagged to study. and god knows how much i need to.
so when the girls mentioned about putting in the extra effort and all that, it made me qn my passion for canoeing. and how dedicated i am to the team and this sport. having mentioned this to bim, she said tt she does see me put in effort during trgs(at least) and i spose that's true. im not giving excuses for myself, but yes as an afterthought, i do test my limits and push myself every trg, even if it's not for my 'love' for canoeing, than at least for the single-boaters, whom i row with every trg and die together after every set. im most fortunate to be able to row rather fast and am honoured to have the other singles pace me. and im thankful for them pushing me forward(cos i dont want them to beat me). and it's this very special relationship that i have with them that keeps me going in canoeing.
every 500m row, i'd allign with the girls and then we'd do maintainance in a line, and everyone yelling encouragement to each other once in awhile. and then as we approach the last 4buoys, i'd yell, "3-2-1-burst" and haha i love the adrenanaline building up to that point and the flurry of paddles and splashing of water as we burst.. honestly, i have seen the girls improve so much from when we started rowing together at the start of the year.
so here's to the single babes, whose plight really cannot be understood by other ppl. we've grown really close this year, having spent most of our trg time together, that it pains me tt we have to compete against one another for limited spaces. and esp the fact that not every one of us will row. so sigh, no matter what happens, i just want you guys to know that i have utmost respect for every single one of you. and the amount of sweat and tears you've put into this sport have not gone unnnoticed. you dont need medals to be a winner.
k1
Cheryl: please dont cry or be disheartened bout trgs cos you've improved So much eventhough you're so new. so yes, really just continue fighting okay?
Jiaqi: you're improving bloody fast. im so proud of you really really. work on your bursts and you'd be bloody imba, seriously.
Bimqi: k1 babe ah? i wont talk bout your rowing (cos you're really good already. i still rmb tt one time you rowed after being away for so long and you beat me for 2k timing. ack imba.) but yeah, injuries are a pain. (literally) but yeah i've had back injuries, and all sorts of stupid injuries as well, and i know how it hurts to have to pon trgs and let your teammates down. and esp when everytime you hafta tell them about it, it sounds less real everytime. and you feel like you're just faking it even. But yeah you know what's best for yourself. and i really admire your passion for canoeing, so just keep it burning kays..
Selene: longest lasting k1 babe eh? you've improved quite some since last year so jiayou and improve summore, for the team, for jiaolian and for yourself. hmm i know it's been difficult for you this past month/few weeks with your injury, esp since you've hardly missed any trgs since last year, best attendance eh lol.. so yeah now that you're back, i bet you're way stronger than before so wooh all the way aight?
Meera: what's there to say manz, you're the bluetack and pro-rower. so do your thing and pwnz aights?
t1 bitches
which reminds me, another reason as to why i dont look forward to trgs is that it's really difficult to when you're rowing a t1. you're always moving so slowly and all the other boats just sail past. and it's so painful and demoralizing. we have this theory tt jiaolian picked us for t1 partly cos we're optimistic ppl to begin with, and this is oh-so-impt to keep us going. thus t1 humour etc. ohyeah and partly cos of our built, Bah.
Prav: you are fast. and improving really fast too. to be honest, im really scared of you and everytime i see you and your white boat from the corner of my eye during our 2k timings, i'd just do my hard 10s just to keep a distance from you. so Yes you're my motivator and pacer and i love you to bits. your dertermination to row inspires me as well and i look forward to rowing with you at nats. =) (oh and im sorry for missing trgs lately. i know how disgustingly painful it is to row t1 alone. bah.)
Priya: okay it took me awhile to come up with what to say and i guess i have nothing. noone can understand exactly how you're feeling right now so yeah i cant say much. you've always been so strong, physically and mentally, and i hate to see you so sad nowadays. rowing-wise, i have seen the power in you and i know you can row really fast if you put your mind to it. i guess the injuries dont help very much, but i just hope you'd stay strong and know that the t1 bitches are here for you always. so yeah just keep the passion burning no matter what happens kay? i look forward to doing dragon-boating and k2-ing with you next year.. ><
so 6 weeks to row my ass off and i guess there really isnt much to lose in putting in the extra effort(other than my grades of course) but yeah i aim to get t1 500 gold. now that i've said it, i will do what it takes to get it. it wont be easy, i know. so when i do get it, it will be all the sweeter. im rowing for the single boaters and yeah i love all of them very much. so yeah to hell bout what jiaolian says or how we row in the end. let's just end off our season with no regrets.
RAFFLES ROW FTW! (hell yeah)

so yup approx 6 weeks left and i guess everyone's pretty much concluded that we're not ready to give the other schools a run for their money. we have politics now of all times too, so yeah i guess things are a bit screwed up..

speaking of embarrassing events, i just rmbed that on friday, FariNa, melz and i had pizza hut for lunch. and there were two guys at the table next to us and they left without finishing their pizza and the hut platter thing. and i was like O.o! and so uh when we were leaving, i asked the waitress whether i should grab a fry and she laughed and said sure. so i did and rushed out after the dudes. melz shared the criss-cross fry thing with me lol.. liyana thinks im a vulture and am teh embarrassing.
then when we got to sch and walking to the admin block, they were playing flo rida's low for the MR party and i was dancing to it as we walked but didnt realize tt there was a j1 boy right behind me and he looked O.o
okay i think i should try to be less embarrassing..
anw just watched Ayat-ayat cinta which is an adaptation from a novel. really nice stuff and they touched on polygamy as well.. i dont think i'd ever be alright with sharing my husband with another woman..
hmm twice yst i dreamt that nazzer came back already..:(
