Thanks for the memories, whether good or bad, i will look upon them. Never forget what happened on Saturday, and you'll never forget the bitter taste of defeat. Our Men's team is very good, believe me. I was almost sure that we'll win Men's IVP, till misfortune struck us in the worst possible way. I'm sad that some of you didn't have the last chance to win a medal at the regatta, but that's life. Nonetheless, NPDB will churn out the next generation of rowers. Its future is bright, keep the fire burning; The Legend Continues...

Life's like that
It's been 4 days and my feet is still hurting but not as much though. So is my right arm which has been smarting since i got that tetanus shot. I have no doubts that i can row but whether to the best of my ability, that i don't know. But Dragonboating is such a mental sport, i'm confident i can overcome the pain barrier.
Just pray that i wouldn't slip on the stairs during loading. lol

Time to clear the Cobwebs
It's been quite a while since i've last blogged. Have been really really busy with training for the regatta and being involved with work in a new company. It's an events and artiste management company and the amount of work to do is overbearing. There's a company website - www.m5concept.com but it's still not ready yet for the big day so dun expect much.
Went to Devil's Bar on Oct 16th(it's like so long ago) with ryan and kevin loh and watched Man utd drew with Brimingham. Man that's like one of the most boring matches so far this year.
Die-hard Man Utd fans
Mr. Ryan Lim
Visited the guys in OCS the next day and boy do they look smart in their smart 4's and white stripes. It was family visiting day and while we were at the canteen, i can't help but smile as i noticed most of the mums and dads bought fast food (majority KFC) for their sons. Nothing weird but just a general observation. Even had to help lek finish his chicken. Heh free food~
Ryan trying too hard to open his eyes..
Short, tall, short, tall, short, tall, short... it's okay if you dun get it ;)
Taken at the top of SAFTI Tower, marvelous view.
Can't recall what i did then from mid october to early november but i guess a big chunk of it consisted of training sessions and meetings and more meetings. Went to double O on hallowen night with the officer cadets and bing and just chilled on the dancefloor with the guys. Saw this guy trying to get fresh with a gal and she just flipped out and confronted him. In the end, the bouncer had to seperate them. Should have just kicked the guy out, the loser despo. The ambience was okay but can't really dance to the music. Guess i just prefer phuture. =D
On the eve of Deepavali, i went down to Zouk and man.. i think the crowd could have easily reached 2k. Hundreds of people were turned away and heard that over at MS, Dbl O was jam packed too. Having lost our enthu-ness, we split into 2 groups. We went over to Geylang's You Tiao Da Wang (loosely translated - King of Dough Fritters) while the other group had a session of karaoke at Katong's KBox. After the late night supper, we went over to One Fullerton and proceeded on to Boat quay. Entered this bar/pub called Hoegarden i think.. Had a pint of hoegarden while watching some americans smash concrete blocks in a martial arts competition on cable tv. Once the show ended, we went outside and chilled beside Singapore River. Chatted till 3+ and we went home. Training on the following morning was a bitch, i almost fell asleep in the boat..
Today i caught the movie "Taxi" starring Queen Latifah and Jimmy Fallon. The storyline was pretty weak but it has its funny moments throughout the movie. Queen Latifah was the highlight of the show for me with her comic talent. Run time was about 1hr and 45min. "Taxi" gets 3/5. And there are so many shows coming up i wanna catch, like "The Incredibles" and "Alexander".
That's about it, i'm outta of brain memory and stopping here. If you're free this coming weekend (20th and 21st), might wanna come down to UOB Plaza to watch the Singapore River Regatta 2004 around 1pm-5pm. Heats on Sat and Finals on Sun.
