Today is the first time in my life rowing a dragon boat even though i work at bedok reservior under water venture for a year plus alr. I always thought that dragonboat was not fun at all, cos its jus gym gym gym, then row until wanna die like that, but today experience change my perception towards dragonboating.
When i started rowing with the rest, the momentum was the motivation to row, it urge and spure u to go on. The rapport and coordination is also cool yeah. It would be even better when we have some mini competition, it makes us go all the way out for victory, keke!!
I have decided to form a dragonboat team to row onces per week under NSECC-YEC, anione interested to join me, plz inform me asap. For your info, i be going ns soon, after my 2 weeks of confinement, i will be able to row on weekends.
Regarding my previous post, i realli am old le. jus row for a while only and my back is aching like xiaoz alr. Compare with the rest, they like nth wrong lay, maybe hands feel weak onli...die die, how to go NS like that, lol!!
Okay, tml outing to sentosa with BF0502 peeps, lets enjoy ourself at the island bahz!!

Haiz... think i am old already, in the past i could be so active to participate in various activities and event. I can even play basketball everyday, do hundreds of push-up, jog 2.4km in 9mins+,etc!!
Now? I cannot le. I only play basketball once per week and is onli for 3 hours. However, i will feel a strong pain on my knees, especially my right knee. The same applies if i force myself to jog long distance in fast timing. The pain was so painful that whenever i try to climb stairs, i will pain to death...haiz!!
My only console is that if i rest and dun over exercise myself, it would be fine, but the funni part is i am going to ns le...hahaha, how am i supposed to rest while i ned to cheong lay, lol...
Anione had this prob, plz share on how to counter it and provide me with good advices.

While working on sunday, was told by sx that popular sell this book on knots which is what i am looking for de. so after work, i went down to popular and search for the book, it took me so long to find la, its not easy to find a book in popular though.
Then found 2 book, the more useful one cost me $17.90, however while queuing to pay, i saw xiao pang(Jinfeng), he was working at popular la, then the staff ask if we know each other and jin feng say ya then she gave me a staff discount, now the book cost $15.20, keke, think the lady was so nice la!!
Then meet jen and jh for pool, jen go there watch movie onli, so the main player is me and jh. Play for 2 hours i think, but the cost is onli $5.60 wor, i dunno y so cheap. It should cost around $14+ de bahz...so lucky rite. Then took cab to sent jh home first follow by jen then i walk home myself.
The next day i started practising on the knots in the book, quite xianz lor. Realise that the instruction not clear de, the author MOI fail la, sadded. Some very nice/interesting de knots cannot be learn. But i still manage to learn how to tie a triple figure of 8, triple bowline and triple fisherman knot, keke!!
Finally i have watch finish Yuan Lai Wo Bu Shuai....when watching this show, got a sense of emoing feel flowing within me....was so sad la. The ending wasn't quite good lay, nv show xiao zhuang and cindy get together, guess all these can onli happen in drama, in the real world where will have such a pretty and nice gal will fall in love with a ugly boy, rite?
Last but not least, calling for all drama lovers, plz intro some new drama to me, otherwise will be hard for me to stone at home, keke^^, Thanks!!

Today woke up at 6am wor, super de early la... bath and get all my stuff and meet yc at 6.45am to have breakfast. Then went to meet sx,sy,xt to take bus 39 to pasir ris. We then went to mac to relax relax first cos it is still early. Then took bus 6 to the loyang PCG there.
Start of course was a lecture on all the jetty jump stuffs, what objectives la, jackets, buoy, mandatory regulations. Then after that, in groups of 10, we were assigned to a instructor, and without wasting much time, we were tested straight on reef knot, figure of 8, double figure of 8, bowline, Clove hitch and timber hitch. Tying of these knots were no kick la, i can tie even faster than the instructor expected. Then the instructor term used also not correct de, i tie the correct know then say mine too advance le, ask me simplfied, diaoz.
Then also tested on uses of knots which i believe all CIs should know it very well, so within a short timing like 5 to 10mins? All of us clear the test alr, and we sat down and wait for lunch, lol.
Lunch was good and after finishing my food, i still got 1 hour to slack, keke!! Then finally stone finish 1 hour le, listen to some theory again and then proceed to don my life jackets. Learn about throwing of life buoy, the 3 method to do rescue then follow by the jump. The jump was so cool la, after green light is given, i hold onto my life jackets, the other hand pinch onto my nose and i jump immediatly without ani hesitation, lol...maybe i cannot wait to try the feeling of dying, keke^^
But think the trainer crap la, ask we all wear long pants jump, the pants then become a bouyancy la, then cause me to do somersult in the water itself. Then onces re-surface, i swim to the rescue boat. And then wait for sy and yc, as sx is the first to jump, then we finish our course le, so easy wor!! Went to bath, lucky to be the first few, clean toilets, no ppl de, but the lau brother took so long la, like giving birth to eggs in there, haha!!
Went home after that, wait for a few minutes before realising that bus 6 has stop service after 3.16pm on sat. Diaoz, walk a further distance down before getting a bus back to pasir ris where we can take 39 home.
Then go home bath, at 7pm meet sx, sy, sl, jh and yw. Then we took mrt to toa payoh for dinner. Wanna eat fortune restaruant de, but after 7pm no dim sum alr, so we change to crystal jade. Spent about $14 to $18 each. Had a very full and nice dinner, cool cool^^
Then go play arcade a while and then go watch iron man. Okok lay, not very nice but also not bad lah. Cos aniway the main thing is there is improvement, keke!!
Haix, tml got to work, if really got work still okay, ask me go there slack, xianz lor, i sure sleep de, too tiring today le, 1st time off during weekends after such a long time, cool cool!!

Let's tok about the sentosa trip that i had today. Nv try to go sentosa wif total of 4 ppl onli, saddist!!
Lets tok bout the items i brought to sentosa bahz, i got bring extra clothes (Nv use), Towel (Nv use), First aid kit (good that not using it), Lays chips ( Onli Jen give face and eat), Lightstick (Popular), tissue ( Jen use quite a fair bit), Camera ( Pics very little, Essence of the song of the sea is captured in it), Spare batt (Used up), Showering kit (Nv use), water bottle (Water all finish up), volleyball (had alof of fun wif it) & Sunglass (Fully utilized)...
We met up at Vivo mrt de control station. Me and jh went for lunch at hawker centre while sy and jen accompany us cos they ate alr. Then initially wan take the sentosa bus over de, but they say nv sit monorail before, so walk over to vivo to take lor.
Reach the beach station very quickly, went to buy the tickets for song of the sea for 8.40pm de show, cos 7.40pm de full le. Then planned to go to tanjong beach de, but we stopped halfway and cross the bridge to the 2 towers on an island, took some pics there and we headed to watch an animal show for free. Saw cute animals like monkey, husky, birds, rats, and snake!! This is the first time i ever touch a snake before, and congrats jen on conquering her fear for snakes (in the day), haha!!
Then went to check out the rates for the kart ride before heading to siloso beach for volleyball. Unable to get a court lor, public holiday got so many ppl lay, play at one corner until about late 6+pm then got court to use. Haha, had so much fun playing volleyball la!! But too bad we play until too late le, mus go watch the song of the sea and thus unable to play the ride, next time bahz, got chance de!! Headed to the siloso big rock for photo taking again, too quite a few nice shot there.
Watch the song of the sea, quite nice, the graphic very power and for fireworks, cool cool. But the duration of the show is too short, maybe its too nice, thats why i feel it is short, lol!! But feedback from me is dun buy the popcorns from the shop, CMI de, taste bad!
Then went to try the dragon trail, omg, was so dark la, even got light stick also no use. Can see our location but cannot see the path. Luckily jh de hp got light de, can lead the way. Walk for some distance before reaching the first checkpoint of the trail, it's a pavilion, however the pillar got snakes de craving on it. Then i disturb jen saying got snake, cos she from afternoon say that she not afraid le mahz. But jus as i have finish saying, she grab me and run lor, lol, nv saw her run so fast before.
Then we saw a bunch of ppl heading towards us, jus as they saw us, they hid their torchlight and we hid our lightstick and phone too. As we approach near to each other, we shout to scare the opposite ppl, lol, damn lame la, but was so fun,keke!! Then somehow we walk out of the dragon trail and jen i think is too scare to go back there and she request to walk down the main road to take the monorail.
Then using the monorail, we reach vivo. This is the point when sy swing swing swing his lightstick and is fly all the way down the escalator, from 4th storey to 2nd storey bahz, lol. Lucky nv hit anione, then after "changing parade", we tried to retrieve the lightstick, but the string attached to the lightstick got stuck, so no choice got to leave it there le.
Went to the bus interchange and took 855 home, it was so much cheaper than NR1 which cost $3, lol!!
So before going NS, i have gone to sentosa le, left a few more places like haw par villa, zoo, bird park, s'pore flyer, etc bahz!!
