This year,we've gone through tough,hard,intensive trainings together,as a whole team. And finally,all these have paid off. Everyone have given off their best throughout these days. And all i can say is,GOOD JOB EVERYONE! You've made everyone proud!

14 April/Tuesday
1000m events on this day. Coach Markus only placed me in 500m events-T1 & K1. So,was a helper that day. Lingered around with the Sec 4s. Gosh. Laughing like no other business. haha. and Coach Keng Wi said that it was a good sign that i looked relax on this day,right on the day before my race. hee C: went home,quite tired though i didn't have any race. haha :D slept as early as 8.30pm,and woke up at 3.30am? what nonsense? haha. did visualisation and fell asleep soon enough.

15 April/Wednesday
and this was the day that will determine whether i can go to the next round or not. and it was the 500m events. it rained before my race and so all races were delayed. heh. so,it was my race.

K1 500m-'C' Division Heat 2
anyway,there were only two heats. and so,for my race,there were four boats. at the end,i managed to clinched in first place. gaahs. and,cause there were only two heats,so,first three from each heat go finals. but gladly,the first heat,two boats capsized which left two boats to go finals.

T1 500m-'C' Division
right after i got up from K1,did stretching on land. and back down on the water to go for T1 500m event. ahak. and so,went down. as there were 3 heats,1st from each heat is sure to go finals. while the 2nd and 3rd from each heat have to go through semi-finals. raced,i got in 2nd. which was split second different from the first boat. gaggs. SEE! it's the mentality which one must have. haga. got up,someone helped carried my boat,rushed to crescent for hmt classes. heh. tired you know. one race after another.

16 April/Thursday
yes. it was the kick butt day like what Coach Markus said. my race was the last event of the day. haha. but still,i was honoured though. hehe. gosh,it was like 12.10pm. where the sun was very high and damn scorching hot. haga. all boats occupied the 6 lanes. and my race was very interesting. haha :D 2 gess boats racing together. haha :D and,thank God i came in 2nd or 3rd,i wasn't sure. but i know i got into finals though. yes. and now,i've got 2 finals;K1 and T1. gerekzxc. cool shitzxc. haha :D

17 April/Friday
this was the day which Coach Markus said that it was GET MEDALS day. yes. i was mentally,physically prepared for my race. early morning,paddled 4km,just some warmup. cause,500m is a short distance with a high intensity. yesyes. got up,had stiff neck on the right. argh. it was really painful. told both Coach Markus and Keng Wi. was told to stretch. and then,ms lim knew about it,helped my massage my body. haha :D

was honoured though. with the life-jacket on. she told me to concentrate on my race,and not to worry about my stiff neck cause she's going to help me massage it. awwhh. how nice kan? hee :] she put the counterpain on my right shoulder. you know i know they know the feeling. gosh. the counterpain really burnt my shoulder. it was hot. and yes,it was dran painful. you've got to try it. and then she massaged abit more and then told me to just leave it. it was our school's race. everyone there rushed to support. left the two coaches alone. Markus and Keng Wi were very kind and caring. haha!

Keng Wi helped me by massaging my shoulder. haha! another one eh? greatzxc! haha. complaint to them of the hotness the counterpain that was applied to my shoulder. yesyes. alright. my event was at noon again! 12.50pm for K1 while 2.15pm for T1. heh. felt like as though there were butterflies in my stomach. haha. Coach Keng Wi was trying to be funny,he told me to bring out all of the butterflies in my stomach.

while waiting,lingered with the two coaches. especially with Coach Markus,haha. cause he knew about my stiff neck. he tried held both my shoulder. and massaged abit more. haha. another one? coolio! ^^V. haha. he said my shoulder was alright then. talked abit more about the race. yesyes.

then,did visualisation before races. it was the finals. extra kick butt time. and,at the starting line,all i know was to reach the finishing line as soon as possible. before it even started,what i know is to get a silver at least. well,kimberlyn from Katong Convent clinched in 1st. heh. she was fast siolzxc. ape case? it's the mentality. she caught up with me at 300m. grr. and taaadaaa. i got silver/2nd. as for my T1,i got in 5th. which was still great though. i know i've tried my best. even weishan saw how i trembled when i was eating my lunch.
