alright. finally i can get to blog about what happen on saturday. woke up slightly later bcos of slacking in bed. missed the 7.25 bus, so i took the one at 740. it was raining on my way there and it delayed the time. got there 5mins later, have to do pumping. it was raining heavily, so we got delayed again and waited at the shed. loaded the boats down after the rain has calmed and went down into the boats after warming up. now, we have this new thingy added to our warm-up -> 50 jumping jets.
we did 2 km first, followed by the 2km. so we alternate because there weren't alot of people there but there weren't enough boats either, cos apparently, CGS moved some to bedok reservoir. did 2km first, then went to the toilet with sihong, by the time we were back, the girls have moved on with their 2nd set, so sihong and i paddled with the boys. then after that, coach told us to gather and for the first time, he allowed sihong and yuxin, me and adeline to try the K2. woots! excited. i was assigned to the front seat and when we were adjusting the seats, there were so much red ants and we were trying to drown them but they can swim!!! haha. so after sometime, murdered all the ants and tried to paddle off in K2. as anticipated, adeline and i capsized quite a number or times, even when we have just left the pontoon by a short distance. then yuxin changed to K1 while beverly joined sihong. though we capsized quite a numbe of times, but it was fun! so i guessed coach saw how hopeless we were, we were told to take off our seats. and miraculously, we were able to balance. went to 250m and back, then we tried 500m. a success. :D then coach told us to put back the seat, and filled the boat with water so its more stable. haha. we still capsized twice and thats it, we have to keep the boats liao.
the feeling is so cool. and when changing direction, we do not have to paddle harder on one side and lighter on the other. the raddle controls it all. no wonder the K4 turns that fast. we didn't even expect to try K2 at this stage luh. but i doubt coach is going to let us try again cos we have difficulty balancing with the seats. but it was fun. :D
went for lunch and took bev to supercut for her haircut and she likes the hairstyle. :D then to work.
went for training on sunday as well and it sort of spoils the relaxed feeling on sunday cos little people turn up on saturday, which explains the increase in the number of people who turned up on sunday. did 2 X 4km. then had lunch and went to town first. had a little walk, then i went to heeren to talk cock before my work starts. like finally, i see hong yi and derrick again. i thought they have been transfered away. walked to the station with the boys and took to marina bay with farhan cos i wanted to sleep and his lessons start at 1pm the following day. so slept till so shuang. HAHA. it was drizzling and the wind was strong when i was walking home. damn cold.
had land training yesterday. a few girls turn up only. i foresee this happening alrdy. but i think they will be back for the following training.
science module today is on fireflies. actually, its more on the chemical reaction that allows fireflies to emit light. got to do with electrons and photons. chim eh? i thought so too. poly students infact research much more on the problem.
went to try on the free singlet and shorts that RP is giving out for all sports IG. woohoo! cool. adding to my collection of free clothings from RP. :D
gtg.
au voirs!
