after the math test, i was all happy and cheery. even at training, when it was raining, i sang thrice as much. everybody could testify.
but how could i. i realised, later, today was actually unworthy of happy thoughts.
first the boy of my life. malcolm has been sad these few days, over him and louis going slow. yet today we raced and they couldnt manage to win me. i mean, how could i do that to them! i know malcolm feels very motivated to buff up now, but i feel that i shouldnt be doing this to the k2. on that very k2, sits not only the boy of my life, but also one of my best friends who have been with me for like, forever?
i apologise to louis and mal. i felt so sad after training thinking about what happened. you guys might think little about it, but i really care. :)
well sometimes i think too much for myself, ive seem to forget about caring for the people around me. them for which without, i wouldnt have gotten thus far. be it my teamamtes, sibling, classmates, it has all been an uanimous motivation for me to live my life to the fullest.
and i feel like doing some teammate appreciation. not by any order:
jone. a great motivator and guy who 'njs' with me all the time! really enthusiastic canoeist with overflowing potential, you've been a good pal to me, man.
ivan. SO WEIRD but he's my sparring partner, very hardworking. i appreciate all the times we've trained together, i guess we'll be seeing each other again in college?
kangjie. the handsome cute boy1. very serious guy, for both good and bad. anyways you've been very very encourage-ey, and i know the whole team appreciates your effort.
damien. the handsome cute boy2. always happy and smiling, your positive attitude is something ive been trying to emulate. thanks for being a model for me man.
JON HU. man of my life. abit the slacker, but nevertheless the one and only farnie poofy guy. thanks for all your sarcasm and cute faces, i really appreciate them during training!( i appreciate them outside training too xD)
jon lee. hmmm dont care what the other guys say alright? win a medal and prove your manhood. HAHAH train harder dude the nationals are approaching. do us proud alright.
MALCOLM<3 dont feel so bad already alright! enhjoyed gaying around with you during training, we both know we care about each other. your presence really cherred me up during training!
louis. what can i say. racing partner for every double race i took. always there to train with me, or to offer his valuable and comical(sometimes) inights. little words can express my appreciation for you being able to make it for training despite your other commitments man, really a teammate of wonderful physical and mental tenacity.
jian rui. the other guy in the team who likes chinese music. yay we can relate yah. always a hard trainer, and i believe you'll do us proud in nationals.
JEREMY. YESS. im so lost for words for this wonderful teammate of mine. the joesph-liker i shall say. train hard man.
last, but definitely nowhere near the least.
paul. we dont agree much sometimes, big slacker, lies.
BUT. he's the guy who ive seen so much will, sense of improvement and resolve within such a small frame. he'll do well in his first ever official race, and wont let us down no matter what. because. we know you've done your best. all the way, fellow canoeist. fellow friend.
( i know i've left out sec 3s, plus its so short. perhaps after the nationals, i'll work on it.)
GO HWACHONG! :))
