sea carnvial

yesterday was sea carnvial i wanted so much to blog but my hands were aching and my brain was failing so slept early... besides i was down with flu and cough hate it!!!
it was damn fun yesterday... oh manz for the first time i was kayaking!! and mean woah.. it felt like it was gonna capsize anytime manz.i was in the relay team with my class girls cos dawn didnt come. me and eileen were partners. both being so blur (i with no experience and eileen who ha kayak only once) were damn worried.. esp after seeing jess and ee ping go around the circumference of the river i was even more worried. haha so ya me and eileen praticed our "left right left right" command and was ready for the advantage. i warned eileen that if i was to capsize i wld grab her really tight.. haha however never got the chance to do that. we managed to stay above water. but the worst was yet to come. we were suppose to U turn at the flag which was near to the other end of the shore. so we kayak happily all ready to turn and then the sea sports person shouted "stear left stear left" me and eileen started to panick we totally forgot what is left and right and so we keep stearing right.. until we realise we were stuck to the shore.. darn! now that we needed help no one shouts. so using our smart brains we push ourselves using the paddle off the shore!! push push push!!! yeah we got it.. now we must turn in the direction such that it heads back to shore and not to the other side of the river.. haha all went well in the end.. what a journey i must say!! great job eileen...

before our kayak there was the class dragon boat race. all of us were hoping not to get last.(last yr we got last) so we placed the girls in the middle so it wld not affect the start or end.. haha we were all ready.. the whole class was in except the soccer boys. the helper at the back stearing direction for us was quite mean i must say. we started off not straight such that when the race start he has to position us to the right place when everyone was ahead already.. probably could have got better but at least we did not end last.. haha great job manz!!

it was fun watching my friends get wet and myself learning to kayak. i guess its something we wld always remember as a class. sad that some could not make it.. but all in all we all had our fun!!! till next time class. now we better study really hard!
