argh.. i feel so tempted to reply to this on someone's friendster:
"hello! e guy who not only DQ but also caused someone to DQ! hahah but no worries e guy blur enough to listen to u :)"
cause i did not. did not, get dq-ed!!! but nvm, i shall not. i can imagine the replies i'll get. hahahahaha. anyway, we improved by 13s for the reswim! but it still wasn't enough. ): nationals are ending tomorrow, then it'll be back to school for me. how sad. and i heard that ms lim screwed the choir again. poor jh. don't worry, i'll be back on thursday!
some pics from enrichment week! scuba diving and chocolate making. i'm grossed out by chocolate now. i must have gotten an overdose. smelling and looking a chocolate now makes me nauseous, much less even tasting it. urghhh... scuba diving was the best!
ok, no pics, the browser isn't loading.

the heats are finally over. i'm very relieved...
i didn't get last for my 100 and 200m breastroke!
hahahaha. instead, i did my personal best, of which i'm quite satisfied with myself. i'm certainly pleased with my 100m today. i improved 11 seconds relative to last year! anyway, i'm not comparing myself to those club swimmers who bag all the medals. its just for the experience, as my parents said. i need to challenge myself physically once in a while. haha. anyway, something shitty happened during my 100m today. when it was time for my heat, some guy claimed that he was assigned to my lane (lane 2) and stepped up onto the board. i complained to the officials around, but 'take your mark' was still said, and the familiar honk sound rang. so basically, i didn't swim in my heat. i had mixed emotions at that point of time. i felt relieved and happy, partly because i thought that i wouldn't have to swim anymore :p on the other hand, there was the nerves that worsened. well, in the end, i swam in heat 4 and that guy got disqualified (poor him, his timing was better than mine, but it was not even recorded in the results).
i'm looking forward to tomorrow! scuba diving! (darn! water again, in a pool somemore..) it'll be my first event of enrichment week. was supposed to go for bio conc camp but was too tired. oh yes, i thought i'd be finished swimming. but apparently due to some 'technical error', the medley relay is going to be reswum. grr....
jun jun alina me and mother!

h3 econs was terrible. once the paper started, people around me started writing straight away. marianne didn't, but she wrote so fast! 2.5 sides for each 35 mark question. hahahaha. i wrote 4 sides for the h2 25 mark question. so ironic.
anyway, its my event on thursday! i believe i'll be last again because 200m is mad. i dunno why i got entered into that. its so hard to sustain! pray that i'll complete it!
just got photos of my birthday from charleen!
oh yes, i went out with alina, junqi and mother yesterday. they surprised me by giving me a birthday present! THANK YOU!! i can't believe i forgot the wang wang incident! it all seems like its yesterday, even though it has been 2 years. hahaha. it was nice to reminisce about the past! (:
hahaha. took this when i went to lot 1 with stella one day after training. apparently my face fits the body due to the correct proportions. hahaha.
