Today's training was awesome!
Though it's really tiring and we have casualties here and there, it's still awesome!
Oh man, being out in the sea for around 6 hours straight makes me have that feeling as if I'm still in the sea.
Yes, I stayed for the two sessions.
One early in the morning, and one in the afternoon.
But at least I get to practice my strokes.
Tried rowing on the right side but Coach said it's super ugly.
Lol.
First session we had full boat but the second session not much people, Ignasia, Sandra and I were the only girls left, the guys? There's JunRui, Lexson, Jerome, Shawn (senior), Shawn (junior), PK, Jackson and Michelle (she came down only after we started our second session).
Things learnt from first session, lean forward and twist for the point, when paddle in the water, push it down until water touches wrist.
And as for coaching, never ever point out a mistake of one participant in front of the whole participating group.
Think I've learnt that in TPC.
And also never ever be lazy while rowing thus knocking your paddle or fingers against the outer gunrail.
Bernie had a deep cut on her right ring finger, I had a slight cut (no bloodshed though) and abrasion right after my nail on my left middle finger, my nail partially came off my left ring finger thus having a hard time to type.
I wonder what really did cut both me and Bernie.
Lol.
OH!
And while the few people who stayed for the second session, at the end of the session, we went to take a boat parked right under a concrete ramp of an army campsite nearby.
And suprisingly, Kevin from my secondary school who is in ns now, reconised me while he and his army mates look at us do our stuff.
While leaving JunRui and Shawn to bail the water from the other boat (it was really full of water that there were fishes living in it.) his (Kevin's) army mates shouted my name.
I was like wth lah.
They were like " KAREN!" and I was like "????" and they were like "KEVIN, FROM SECONDARY SCHOOL!" and I was like "OHHH!" and his army mates and the rest in my boat were like echoing lah.
So paiseh sia.
Anyway, JVS4T204 PEOPLE! I DEMAND A MEET UP!
It's been years since I've last seen you guys.
Okay, I did brief meet up WeiHan and JinHui, talked on the phone with Rosalyn so what?
I want to see EVERYBODY all over again and refresh our memories.
So I'll only meet up those whom I was once close with and not with Shafiee (who obviously stole my discman back in sec3) and gang.
Especially those who were once chao ahBengs.
Sigh, those were the sweetest memories in my mind.
Skipping classes, eating and using our cellphones in the library, always in trouble with the teachers.
Anyway, this isn't going anywhere.
To brother, please tvgc and GET WELL SOON!
