Canoeists gather!

Dear TomHa,
Ar.. Mid-Autumn, my all time favorite chinese festival, where the moon is round and bright, the mooncakes are sweet and high in cholestrol, when the tea is just so bittersweet. The festival of all time, when I spend time with family, playing with my siblings around in the local playground while my parents go chatting up with the Bangladeshi sweepers doing their jobs (HUH???), where lantern riddles becomes lame jokes in the end, and also, of being able to catch up with people whom you have lost touch with, for a while.

We had canoeist gathering of some sorts at Daming's house, where I wanted to have some sort of a Mid-Autumn celebrations over a hotplate, but perhaps the sauna and the jacuzzi had cleaned out too much toxins in me that I forgot more than half the things that I wanted to do. But never mind, we were a bunch of joyful people who indulged ourselves in the joy of being able to laugh at each others' achievements, or rather, the lack thereof. Joseph was there, a delightful sight, I presume to actually see your coach outside training hours. The weird accent which I presume that everyone of us were able to imitate to some level of perfection. Haha. The cranky people remained cranky, the fat remained the fat, but the muscular became a bit nuah. But most noteworthy is the fact that wenyang created a stir in the pool when he arrived showing off his singlet tan with all the pecs and muscles. Beware, I think the guy in purple trunks already have you marked loh.

Indeed, I must comment that we had toned down a little as most of them had some transformation in the Army. They had grew up to be almost man-like, though I am not sure if that will last after their ORD. I hope it will, but please, let us remain as childish, sarcastic individuals in front of each other ok? Afterall, any actions on your part to act like a mature and serious man would only result in you being labelled as a wayang king, refer Bryan Yip..(I dreamt to become a policeman since I was a child).

A joyful day of festivities. If only Liverpool had won the battle with Manchester United, today would have been even sweeter.
