firstly, i want to give thanks to my republic canoe mates! they are among those important poeple who made my birthday memorable. thanks for all the cake smashing and for pressing my nose hard against the table. but my tears wasn't for the hurting nose. it was for my joy! loves republic canoe! i've found the hpt feeling from them, somehow. but canoeing is a individual sport, unlike hpt which works mostly or only in a team.
thanks to all those who wished me happy birthday, through sms, msn or friendster. and thanks to billy, yong ann and benjamin (forgive me if i missed out ur name) who sang me the happy birthday song at 12am on my birthday. sweet! thanks to the 2904 girls for the prezzies (adidas backpack, adidas lanyard, havaianas) and for celebrating eve's and mine's birthday. thanks to koon teck who kept his promise and gave me mrs fields on sunday!! was so high after that. and thanks to pinwen for making me the super filling breakfast- 4 slices of bread with the super gao tuna and egg, plus strawberry milk and vitasoy. ((:
school's been pretty fine. grades are alright. but it isnt enough. making through it and scoring well is 2 different matters. i want to score well. ((: and here i am blogging during lessons. need to stop. canoeing training has been increasing in its toughness. i still suck at my direction but i aim going to let it conquer me. i had class BBQ on wednesday. had lots of fun from the food and the stupidly horror movie. haha.
had training in the morning yesterday. paddled 6 km, if i'm not wrong. 1km by 1 km. i wanted to sprint. but i still suck at direction and alan was telling me to pull harder at each stroke. then sihong told me that i was too stiff which resulted in me unable to twist freely. hence, i slouched and relaxed and paddling was much more easier. shall not give up. the tougher it is, the more i want to stay.. its all in the mind.
went town after that and changed my havaianas to a size smaller. then we went to velocity, then we went home. i love my tann. haha.
*REPUBLIC CANOE! SA SA SA! OH YEAH?! WOO-AH!
au voirs!
