this low-esteemed gruppy old man is just mad with the ppl ard around him.
jUz 2 days b4 the River Regatta, my buddies in CBE,
I just dislike my clique.. they do all they can to make the friendship as normal as they can. Just left me to rot.. haiz.. I NOE I STAND OUT LIKE A SORE THUMB. I�� Malay..
I�� no MANJEN!!! Cheebye.. u think I wanna be like u guys.. and aft all the sarcasm, ��h ya, sorry for everything. We were just kidding��A few guys onli. Fang Rui though is a gd fren. Jun Xiang u too.. U guys rock maN!!
Lets just make it clear. I am proud to be a PURE-BLOODED Malay. The only reason I am hanging out with Chinese is cause they just happen to be. I am no MAT who goes ard and hang arnd void decks and make noise.. I dun steal and smoke.. [drinking, well maybe a bit]
And I dun go FUCKING ard for the fun of it at every dark spot I see..
Chinese has a huge culture and long history which I find interesting.
If it wasn�� that they weren�� too many of u, I wont be in this shit..
If I lived in Malaysia, I�� sure to befriend more Malays, and in India more Indians��
Who gives a FUCK..
More importantly, River Regatta..
26/11/05 ��27/11/05
11.30am ��4 pm
The day b4 I played Mahjong and won $10.. not bad ne.. I guess I was just lucky.. hehe..
But I couldn�� say the same for my race.
MENS OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP 300m Race
NGEE ANN POLYTECHNIC TEAM B
Event 9, 11.55 am..
Lane 3, Green Boat
Just minutes before the race, the rain started to pick up. on the way there it was seriously raining!! The river was FUCKING choppy.. fuck care, we are going to win this one.. all my 5 months of training, $150 worth of GNC, $$$ for the food that I carefully picked to keep myself strong & fit, most importantly the time I sacrifice away from my friends and family, the life that I have given away��. I came down to this. I am going to win back a medal to show it to them that it was all to gd use..
100m in, we were leading the race by 1/4 of a boat with the trailing team.. out of no where, Canadian Team of Commerce just bang onto us on the left.. that just dragged us and we were on par.. a lot of paddles colidded.. mine landed on the 1st right rower on the boat. The captain I suppose. Directly on the ribs. What u expect.. they��e the one who is kissin our ass..
But manage to break away. Swirl a bit to the right to avoid them, then NTU come to kiss our ass.. ANOTHER COLLISION. Now the left rowers of our boat must row harder to make up for it.. I reserve no energy.. by the time, we were off track. Now in lane 1, must turn like 45 degrees to go back lane 3 to cross the finishing line..
All I could say is that my luck ran dry. I noe I can blame that. The reason was cos of the rain. The current cause all 5 boats to sway to the left making it unleveled waters.. we got 3rd.. not too bad but experienced learned.. 365 days for another round..
24th REGATTA be prepared for me!!
And ya, the rain stopped as soon as our race was over.. and it was sunny til the next day���������������..
The Seniors [TEAM C] later qualified and later got to 2nd heats then, the semifinals where they lost to other stronger teams from teams like SCDF, GERMANS and the Canadian team.
But got 3rd for the Plate Title.
I was so FREAKING upset tt day that I went and to get drunk tt day.. I guess all the training made me look 20 or sth. They handed me the beer as if they were free..
Thanks guys.. Financially and emotionally. Haha.. hey, I was broke ok..
Han Ming was my bro for that day.. I guess i saw him in a different light.
He is realli a great buddy to be with.. haha~
Vomitting bits of food along the way on our way back home..
~cos scared get lost maybe..
U ROCK MY WORLD..
The next day they were a few other races. I personally was drained..
The womens team didn�� do so good. They got last for IVP.
the guys got Silver and lost to NUS by 0.01 secs��WTF?????!!!!!
That was the climate of the whole race. The juniors ran on the roads along the river.. we were cheering like mad as they rowed all the way. Our support was given to them in any way we could.
We had our Race Dinner aft tt.. at Chijmes. $30 worth of buffet. The restaurant was Gatsby.. haha.. not from japan de.. we were like hooligans who haven ate for 2 yrs. Every time they replenish the food, it was gone b4 u could say ��AM SENG��.
We had Bolognaise, Oriental Fried Rice, Teriyaki Chicken,rendang chicken, Fish Fillet in wine cream sauce, [oppss] all that SHIT.. our coach gave a speech and all those stuff.. dun wanna go into details..
Our captains played a round of arm wrestling. And the Co-Captain won.. I took a piX with him aft tt.. will upload as soon as I get hold of it..
Ok cao.. Next entry will be on the trip of sending XR of to China at the airport..
Til then, I leave u with a piX of my buddies in NPDB..
