This yr's dragonboating race held by the breast cancer foundation was our virgin race.yesterday we had a taste of the 500m raceand today it was 200m.we came in 4th for the 500m event.there was this super f***ing coxsair who fell into the boat.so in the end, their boat totally swayed into our lane n we crashed.fortunately, there was not much harm done bcos the collision wasn't very strongIn the end, we still went ahead with the race, after the accident.heheyeah.Ah Hee, our coach, says that we went more than 50m away from the starting pointso we can't re-race. had to cont rowing until the finishing point.too bad :(today was much better, for the heats onliwe were 2nd.but i think we waited too long for the grand finals, that we weren't exactly energetic or high for the race.we came in last! 5th position for the grand finals.dammit.Anyway, it was a great experience.I feel that everyone is more tightly bonded after the races.we're going for 'River Regatta' soon.on the 11th & 12th of November, just days before my 1st paper starts.hopefully i can survive this.but, i just wanna say this: Racing is fun!!!haha :) especially for beginners, bcos we need not worry too much.din realli feel the pressure at all.just need to give in our best and treat it as a training.Must take note of my management of my time.bcos the 'River Regatta' is super near to the exam dates.so had to make sure i have sufficient time & energy to revise & study.Am studying now. :Dbut cant really concentrate cos realli too tired & shag.jia you!will always remember these words.-end-
I love my world:D
