hahahaha..
:D

Yeah all wives are ALWAYS right... Try getting a boyfriend to oppose his dear and there would most likely be a sweet natural quarrel within the couple. Try getting a husband to say "no!" to the old hag at home and you know he's in for a jolly "good" time.. As the saying goes,...

When in love, your darling is a cute little sheep, so vulnerable all the time, deserving protection..

After marriage, she took off her sheep's skin, revealing her wolf colours and the dangerous teeth, making you vulnerable and deserving protection all the time...

HAha enough..Now, back to the main track,

As we can see, canoeing nationals was just over two days ago, with Raffles clinching a double bronze this time round. Erm this may sounds a bit lousy, but it is definitely not! There are only 3 awards each year and you are either the national champions, second or third or nothing at all! For the past, National JC and Hwa Chong Institution have always been thrashing Raffles to the game, leaving us to be considered ants among tigers. But for this time, a significant number of us have made it to the finals as underdogs and achieved considerable performance in the different races.

The result? We only lost to Hwa Chong by a few points! Say, only 2? If we had pushed a little harder, or had had more luck, Hwa Chong would be third instead of us! Haha.. But since the nationals are over, and it's a fact that we're third on the national level now, it's time for us to work harder, even more harder, to beat Hwa Chong next year and emerge second! I bet Hwa Chong must have felt threatened by Raffles on friday too!

SO, Raffles Canoeists out there should train doubly hard and fight for better results in the next nationals! For me, i hope and aspire that i can represent the college to compete in the next NAtionals for a medal but this may mean a challenging and difficult route ahead. As a typical schoolboy with not yet Selwyn's muscles, Kaiyang's body, Peter's stamina, Guoren's speed and Kenneth's charm... I have to really put in all i've got to clinch the very limited spaces we have.. (Aiya should have stayed in Victoria, where everyone gets to compete! (but no one wins la..=P sorry Victorians..:)))

SO, from now on, don't be surprised to see JAmes training real hard and hard and hard to improve himself. Don't be stunned to see James looking tired (or haggard?) all the time and don't be astonished to see James sleeping in school.. Haha..

All the way!
