Haven't been updating my blog for quite some time I guess many ppl are missing me yah? lolz
I was juz lazy... Too many events took place, had so much to write so decided not to blog..
I guess it's a wrong choice...

Anyway, I went for a race for the Singapore Dragonboat Festival 2006 at bedok reservoir. The event ground was so grand for the 1st time. There was a bazaar and many participating teams hanging around at bedok as early as 7.30am in the morning on the 1st July. My team's first event started around 10.20am. It's the national open championship mixed 20men event. Competitors were strong: safra, canadian, NUS alumni, ITE, singapore paddle club and british chamber of commerce. First day of race, all excited n hype up. everything was smooth, competition was strong. Was in the 4th initially but overtook 2 boats at the last 200m or so during charging and came in 2nd. Cool~ So, off we go... into the semi finals.

For the womens race, competitors were too strong, we came in 4th. Nevertheless, we won't be discouraged. My team will train harder for greater achievements for river regetta race in Nov 2006.

The 2-day event at bedok was a great experience. My team became more bonded and will now hold on together to work towards our same goal. Also, we had a fun time hanging out with smu db team too. Watching the races, 'shopping' at the bazaar, doing land drills, having fun, it juz feel so nice though the weather was hot but it's the right weather for the event.

As for the 2nd July, there of cos were fewer teams cos only those who made it to the semis will be there for the race. 2nd day... everyone was aching already. Haven't recover from the 1st day race, the body have not recharge yet. So performance wasn't at the peak. However so, we all did our best though we didn't get into the grand finals.

Hello pEePs! you are now looking at MOI! blog

@|~Cookies for thought~|@

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness

That.. is a friend who cares...

Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity

The important thing is not the object of love, but the emotion itself

Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself

Never apologize for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologize for the truth

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter
Lessons learnt from moi life
