Chapter 140: Dragonboating

17/7/10-
Went dragonboating. Supposed to meet bing hui (bh) at 7 eleven at compasspoint. Took the lrt from Rumbia. Saw bh already inside the lrt, so we went str8 to take the mrt after reaching sengkang interchange. Went all the way to dhoby ghaut before changing to the circle line to reach stadium. Bh wanted to take this longer method to go there as he's like all the pregnant ladies and old people out there. HE JUST WANTS TO SIT! He claimed that that it is not possible if we changed at serangoon because of the crowd of people.

Reached stadium mrt station quite early. So we went to eat first. On the way, saw Mr. Lim and the new PE teacher. Bh pretended to be talking to me to avoid talking wif the teachers but obviously, his plan failed drastically. Mr. Lim spoke to him. He asked why we're here so early. Bh said we're going to eat. Then they talked abt lightning alert and briefing and bringing us there kind of stuffs. Then we went to kallang leisure park for breakfast. I didnt eat cause i dont really have the appetite nor the habit for breakfast, despite the fact that breakfast is good for me. He ordered bread, coffee and egg. He said he ate the egg and felt like vomitting. Why? Beats me.

So we went back and saw a crowd there alrdy. Matthew (Matt), Junfeng (Jf), Yi An (yian), josh has reached already. TO MY HORROR, i AM THE ONLY ONE WHO DIDNT BRING EXTRA CLOTHES !?!?!?
I didnt know dragonboating will result in showering effect. So we went there, cats and dogs were falling down from the sky. We seeked shelter. I shall skip most parts of the incident of sheltering.

Ok, it was still raining, and the odac people offered biscuits. We initially didnt really want to eat them. Then Jf, who was in odac but not on duty, took the biscuits and gave it to us. (or should i say force it upon us.) He shouted at us, "EH TAKE LA, EAT LA, EAT!" He was fierce to the extent that the odac girl holding the can of biscuits dropped the can -.- Epic funny la. (FYI: His shouting was for joking purposes only, no offence intended.)

Then the rain subsidised. And we went dragonboating. Surprisingly, all the 4 girls in my team already dragonboated before and some guys were the ones who is having their first shot at dragonboating. So we trained and attacked other dragonboats, by splashing water when the dragonboats are adjacent each other.

the competition came. We reached the finishing line together with the other team from puma house.
But we are given second just because our team has less girls compared to theirs. What rubbish. More guys = more weight
More girls = less weight
Furthermore, Cougar comes before Puma in alphabetical order.

This implies that We should be first :D
But they claimed that guys have more str so we're awarded FIRST runner's up.

They went to bathe but not me as i do not have extra clothes :X Went to kfc to eat before going home and i forgot to pay yian for the meal LOL.
