AS usual something wrong with my com and blogger is inaccessible .
Good things comes like when you were losing hope , that one little ray of light, though it does not light up the whole place , it provides that comfort that , somewhere out there , the sun is still shinning , and light is plentiful . Walk through the tunnel , get outta here
OK Recap on Fri’s teacher day celebration , a very retarded ACES day like every other, and a whizzing programmes in the CC … yupps but the AVA crew should really learn to control the lighting ambience .
After much delay decided to go back to Cat High , despite no one contacted me about any planned gathering , holla ..
Hehz class 4-2 had one of the highest returning students ratio, save for the AJC peeps who fell victim to their school’s erratic planning , but shawn and grayson still did make it out illegally ..
Tried to find back some of the teachers , and some of ourselves which we left behind , the time , the effort, the brain cells spent studying , the brotherhood forged with sweat , the quarrels and mini-fights , each one hold that bit to stir our memories within .
And its always good to gather back , look back and think : “ that was me”
Never having been a photogenic class, we didn’t really have that many photos taken together in those years that past, but now as we gathered , hell , what a waste not to take one big one together . And with Mrs Anna Tan our stand in form teacher , we did . With as much of the class that was present.
That was us .
Catholic High Sec 4-2 class of 2006 , and I neva tot I’ll miss it that much .
Hung around at bishan J8 , ate stood around and talked , while wasting time , rotting , as always. Its was always like that , and , seriously I really , cant have much to talk about all of us , and it makes no sense to dedicate the whole post . haha
Right Saturday , I defied the suspension with the permission of Ms Ong and went with some of the seniors to leisure paddle at Bedok.
Crapped a bit before lauching off , since TP was also training , so there was a lack of K1s available , so I decided might as well carry on with the C1 . Then was lost in my own world of exploring the C1 again , disregarding the others , experiencing the leans the tilts and the turns of the C1 , just like I did with the K1 months ago , lost in my world . And that’s when training are the most productive when learning to use a new boat.
K doing fine m and getting to love the C more and more as I paddle more and swim less . Movements are straight , turning arcs are crazily big , and strokes come wide and huge coupled with a big pull , managed to pick up some speed to feel a breeze caressing the face, and heh , its getting to feel more comfy . For all be known , ha I might end up C1-ing for good after all .
And of course like any leisure paddle session , there was the slacking time on the pontoons, and the stunt attempts . I practiced my edging and attempt to paddle the K1 half submerged, cupped several attempt to jump off the boat . Wai Kit stood in his PS’s K1 , I sat down and paddled the C1 with a wing paddle , and a K1 without a paddle
And the seniors tried to race using the C1s , off the pontoon , by competing who stays on the boat the longest without dropping out . Dude C1-ners ….
Had a pizza feast treat by coach after that during the afternoon , since he won quite some prize money from his recent adventure race in Malaysia. Quite a feat I would say , bao dao wei lao , and at his condition , to WIN the race , must have taken quite some guts and pro-ness to do it …
And that’s about it … Sunday’s spent rotting as usual , and the weekdays , are spent in school …. Duh ….
