Champions





Dear TomHa,
Yesterday was a rather funny day.

I went to school with only 2 things in mind, 1. to take photos of the ongoing canoe polo IFG and 2. to try out some canoe polo since I know some people in it.

But what was truly unexpected was the call from Guowei to ask me to play as one of their team mates need to leave early. So, there I was, with no skills other than knowing how to row and steer the boat in the water. Was totally useless out there and my rowing skills, after a 3 year hiatus, proved as crappy as crap. But I did have 2 assists to the account since my team mates were rather good sharp shooters. What was really funny also was the fact that despite my inability to do anything in the water, I was marked rather closely by the opposition! I meant, all I did is to find holes in the defense and row into it, that being the only thing I knew and then two boats came crashing into me, marking me like I know what I am doing. Haha. Pretty funny.

Well, thanks to Guowei and Zhemin, especially, I have an IFG canoe polo gold medal to my account for my NUS memories.

Cheers!
