Yesterday was national day, but i was away with Andrew and Hao Yun to beach road to buy watch, den we decided to go geyland to eat Tao hui.. But Hao Yun scared later see his unknown childrens coming up to him and call him Papa, so we went Kovan de Selegies there, the Tao hui there not bad actually. Then later they taught me how to play billard, kana eat by both of them.. eat me until gao gao lah.. Reach home very late liao then guess what the next morning?
Dragonboat training is at 9.30, luckily i reached late, and escaped from the 4.3km run leaded by the coach, can see that he is running with 2 in-built oxygen tanks. Ex-commando and ex national team dragon-boater if im not wrong.. Row 10km again and i swear to god i really cannot take the rowing. Its like doing 5kg weight for roughly 2000 raps or 62 mins (non-stop), totally pung chek at 6km. Then after the training, we celebrate for the 1st anniversary for this PLK. They bought 3 boxes of fresh durians and they used small swizz knife to cut open the durians.. Its so nice, but later on i keep smelling durians when i burp =.= Had buffet too and the PLK people are like hungry ghost that just came out this month.
The coach's birthday was yesterday which is like National Day? What a lucky guy! And guess what? His family came down to give him a surprise party, and the PLK members bought him shades, a big b'dae card and a group photo. Later, the organisers even give them each a '08 National day T-shirt to take family photo, rent 2 kayat boats for them to row as a family, how lovely ! I really admired the coach for having such a fufilled life, family, career and body. Also i admired how he is being respected and love by all the members, it's really hard to be strict and yet earning respect at the same time. Now its 8.35pm, gonna sleep till tomorrow!
