ok! now finally for my canoeing compeition updates! first day, i went to school to meet with the canoeists, wearing the big-red jersey with a big big "GESS canoe" there! i mean, they should bold the 'canoeist' and not the 'GESS' next year the students are soo gonna design the jersey mann, don't trust the teachers anymore X3

anyway, so everyone was wishing me good luck, but tuesday wasn't my race, LOL.. thanks anyway to those who wish me good luck! and the seniors didn't let us go into the staff room, they were making those encouragement things, which were like.. not very good? no offence to anyone, but it was photoframes.. and we can't bring those down when we paddle, unlike the BOTTLES! haha.

also! there were encourage notes in it, but all wirtten by teachers! which is so fake, at least not from ms.lim.. but mr.goh one is.. what the fuck? he wrote there "thank you for your commitment" then on the same day, on the bus he was complaining about my commitment, and that it should be better. stupid, didn't feel encouraged at all~ waste of time..

speaking about mr.goh, walao.. he damn noisy sehh. i mean, on the bus right, he was talking to the sec3 boys, and WE DIDN'T WANT HIM THERE! he just kept going on and on and on.. wapiang seh.. anyway, the first day was 1000m race, here the results:

lee yingying : 1st place! haha, yingying's race was really wow.. i mean sh thrashed like hell! (but then the teachers said that her compeitiors weren't good, but still.. congrats!) everyone was like high cheering

wong waichong: he got 5th or 6th place i think.. but still, good race lahh, i'd capsize X3 his k2 good though(:

choo joonguan: erm, he got 2nd or 3rd i think, but still semi-finals! and he was complaining that he off-form cos it was too cold.. he was one of the first racers i think.

kwan yuanzhen&tan wanlin: they were in K2 1000m, they got second i think. heh, i'd be happy if i got 2nd lorh.. then they were emo-ing cos it wasn't good enough.. but still(:

ahh, forget it, i'll go straight to the end..

end up me and jiasheng kena thrashed in our race, and i'm still sorry jiasheng.. don't think he'll wanna partner me anymore anyway.. but our k4 event! me, jiasheng, yangoyu and timothy! at least we didn't capsize, which was our goal lahh.. we total got about 3-4 trainings only sehh.. then we were training on the day of the compeitions.. cos we had a straight final event, so oour race was on friday. and even on thursday we cannot balance properly, so we were really worried..

but surprisingly, on the last day, can balance eh? but we didn't burst.. (which we could've) and we were lagging behind by 3 bouys.. but we were the only guys in the finals! so at least GESS sprint team didn't get 0 points! we got two instead! which is really pathetic! SJI won the first place with the minimum.. a 8-man team! haha, next year GESS gonna be the same!

GAMBATEH KUDASAI MINAH!

so in the end, GESS canoeing only got fengjia&yingying in their ks 500m race win silver medal, and yuanzhen in her T1 500m also silver medal.. that's it.. but the juniors like all very good lehh! all like 4th position for the 'C' boys, and the girls.. waseh! amirah got into the finals! but in the end, she got 4th.. but still the first sec1 in three years getting into the finals! haha, considered very good already (or is it out canoeing lousy?) then persis, aiyodeh! she got into finals for both her events! haha, felicia also! keren got into semi-finals i think.. (or was it finals?)
then the seniors, shahril and linken got into semi-finals, and actually shahril can get 3rd place go to finals, but he go and capsize cos of linken (so kind sia shahril) but end up linken panic then he capsize also.. hais, ah well. waihcong and shahril got into semi-finals, joonguan also. then all the sec3 guys got kicked out at semi-finals..
and then there's benjamin! haha, too bad he capsize.. he was leading in his heats by A LOT! sure can get a medal one.. nevermind, he got one in the NCC, first guy medalist in five years seh!

so that's about it for the canoeing compeition.. the rest all blurry liaos, and everyone complain my post veryy long.. haha, tried to cut it short already.. (acutally, i only talk about the results, never even talk about the process, heh)
