2007-08-21T16:59:00.000+08:00

haha.. k.. haven blogged for really long.. i shall now.. haha.. ok.. just came back from.. kiel.. youth worlds.. europeans.. haha.. really hectic.. n.. something like 6 competitions in between.. nationals.. kiel week.. interschools.. youth worlds.. pesta sukan.. europeans.. haha.. crazy.. 6 regattas in 3 months in 3 different boats.. haha.. 1st, 6th,7th,13th,1st,1st.. at least it started and ended with a first.. haha.. but those 29er n byte races really crap.. haha.. 29er wasnt tat bad.. but byte.. lets just say i wont be sailing bytes for long now.. haha.. ok.. n pictures.. from all events.. here it goes..

29er sailing in kiel.. the best sailing venue so far.. except that we were at a different harbour this time.. kyc. kiel yacht club.. no hoses.. the only time we washed the boats were on the last day when it rained(:

29er sailing after the last race of the day.. finished 5th.. n auntie was 6th.. saving the best for the last race of the day.. so can go back early(:

youth worlds.. kingston.. freaking thermal effect here everyday.. blows 15 knots in a 29er.. not funny.. well.. heres the start.. ownage pin end start.. thats not the entire story though. apparently we were over the line.. supposed to be 'ocs'.. but they screwed up the x flag.. so.. its still a good start right?

light wind day in kingston.. one of the few days.. we won that day.. 2,4,2.. n won the top 3 in every race.. if only everyday was light wind.. here.. the top 3 with light blue spins.. note. there were only 3 light blue spins in the regatta.. n this was the last race of the day.. going back to shore early again.. (:

last day in kingston.. freaking blowing 25knots.. everything went wrong today.. capsized on the way to the course.. spin twisted in the bag (n that really suxs in 25knots).. 5 capsizes in one race.. 3 pitch poles... one broken harness.. that tells the story..

second day of qualifying.. n our only bullet the whole regatta.. dunno how far we were in front.. but it really did feel good.. even without 'o' flag..

yellow sticker on the sail.. its nvr coming off after this.. sure feels good.. even though it was on for only one race of the regatta..

poor 420 boat.. 25-30 knots on the practice race.. n.. this is wad happens.. mayb thats why we didnt sail the next time 30 knots came.. i forgot to thank them..

how cool is this.. n this shall end off my post.. great trips.. fun trips.. n im sure looking forward to the next one.. (:

2005-03-28T21:07:00.000+08:00

sigh... back to school liao.. sigh... after two weeks of holiday.. i can seriously say i m not ready for school... well... woke up a bit later than my norm today... woke up at like 6.10... was like rushing to get out of e house.... sigh... got lotsa homework during e holidays which i didnt finish... esp chinese n english.. which is so god damn hard.. well... this two weeks of holiday has definitely been slightly stressful... well... also not tt lucky in sailing... didnt make it for the trials... well.. this weekend's race... if only... if only... the last race went on... n i got 1st... then i would be top 3 overall at least.. sigh... well... tt is just the freaking unpredictability of sailing... sigh...

so... the two regattas... both screwed up... in a sense la... considering where i think i should be... well... its another 2 months be4 e next regatta... which happens to be the sea games 1st selection... really need to get back down to trng and more trng... hard work... n back to more stamina work in the gym...

school life is back now too... it totally suxs... cant believe there is no holiday in april... oh screw it... next holidays will be in june... a month of holiday.. already looking forward to it... but conisdering the days of school... its gonna be a long long wait again... even longer than first term which was relatively short... much more work now... more pressure... more stress... but sailing is still the same... jared is going on to byte liao... wish him the best of luck in his next class...

so... back to today... went to school... normal stuff... just tt i was like finishing my work in class... haven finish a lot of stuff.. well... after school.. watched miss congeniality 2... gd show... quite funny... haha... recommended movie i guess... its definitely better than all e other movies on show now... well.. tmr is tues... lessons will be boring i guess... but theres training tmr as well... so tts good... must really start training hard as i said earlier... so... ya.... gonna go do my chinese work now... still have a real heck lot of work left... too lazy to do it... but i m forcing myself... so... ya... k... later...

this week is yet another week of holidays for me... but the days are all filled with boredom... only training to look forward to... take today for example... frens come over to do work... then after tt... nothing to do at all... sit down.. wanna do work... start on a bit... then too lazy... go n laze around... like an idiot... well... guess tt is just me...

this coming weekend... will be yet another regatta... hopefully i can forget abt youth championships... concentrate on the regatta.. can i do well? really hope i can... well.. now... its back to training hard... waiting for the next chance.. sea games selections... yeah? working on my training now... wont be long though... be4 the selections come again... ya.... so.. signing off...

training n tiger cup

2005-01-02T22:22:00.000+08:00

haha... january the 2nd.. finally back in training.. at long last.. too bad it was raining the WHOLE day... Sigh... no on water training.. so whole day in the gym.. haha.. good to be back "gymming" as well.. feeling the stretch from gym already... what a workout.. well.. tt was training.. the normal... what was bizarre was the match between singapore n myanmar... the tiger cup semi-finals... needing to win by 2 goals, myanmar scored 2 goals after 50 mins... then singapore scored one to bring the score back to a tie on aggregate... what came next was the bizarre moment... haha.. well a myanmar player was sent off after a second yellow card before singapore were awarded a penalty in the 87th minute... the myanmar player was sent off... n it started a free-for-all fight.. haha... so another myanmar player gets sent off for kicking the mud at the referee... so funny.. then singapore misses the penalty n goes into extra time... with 11 men against 8 men... n thus singapore score 3 goals ... n myanmar get another red card... n one singapore defender (subramani) gets a water bottle thrown at him... so singapore go on to win 4-2 n proceed to the final... wierd huh? haha... so back to life... school tmr... F*** !!! sigh hope we dun have lessons tmr... i doubt so though... well.. ya... have a happy new year...

happy new year

2005-01-01T00:00:00.000+08:00

hey.. yo.. happy new year... year 2005-the year of the rooster... haha. i dun understand why people have resolutions.. in the end they break it... sigh.. well... on a look back to year 2004 where there have been many ups n downs for me... so here are what have been good n bad:

ups during the year: 1. asian champion-scott 2. asean champion-griselda 3. finishing 10th in asian.. 4. sherman finally hooking a "good-looking" gal... 5. getting back into a-squad... 6. me passing my exams.. 7. new faces in the squad... denise n bryan...

the downs: 1. asian team finishing runner-ups in team racing... 2. asean team also finishing runner-ups in team racing... (coincidence?) 3. getting demoted to b-squad 4. failing my geog n chinese twice in first semester 5. worlds championship pple not making an impact in ecuador (no offence) 6. the ever-so-flirtatious tim not having any luck with the gals (neither did i) 7. many broken hearts (from break ups) 8. arsenal winning the premier league 9. captain ming n vice captain chun stepping down n converting to byte...

haha... so... oh well.. tts year 2004 for me... sad to say there were more downs than ups... well whats over is over... so... once again. happy new year... haha
