Awesome competition, awesome people.

A short post.

First of all, GOOD JOB EVERYONE. Each and every one of you. You guys did great and did not give up even if you could have, even if every part of your body or whatever was telling you to. It was obvious that no matter how tired, no matter how many events you guys have (back to back) you continued on and gave your best. and that's what matters in the end :)

The teamwork was fantastic as well ! Thank you everybody for these awesome two days and for the encouragement + cheering that were given throughout. We all needed it.

Also, A VERY BIG THANK YOU TO JOSEPH who has lost his voice by shouting/cheering. Do drink more water and I hope you recover soon. And of course, not forgetting, the food/water bring-ers (no such thing but whatever) ! We had such awesome food to fill our stomach during lunch and adequate water to hydrate so thank you for taking the time to buy them/prepare them, much appreciated !!

Have a good night and see y'all soon !

-Cass

BEST OF LUCK !

HELLOOOOOOOOO



I know the blog haven't been updated for a really long time, so here's a post.

This weekend, 18th and 19th September, we have our annual National Open Waters at Sentosa. I suppose all of us are like super kanjiong now, especially for the majority of us, who are first-timers for this event.

I wish all the competitiors well, and do your best. No matter the results, just remember that if you have put in your best, any results attained, is a good result (:

Anyway, just a little encouragement: You're not a machine. You're a human being. You're not always going to produce product. Losses are important too. The peaks aren't as high if you're always on top of them. You need the valleys too. And from there, you build yourself up again. (Only With Passion - Katarina Witt)

Cheers,
Hui Hiang (:

Please show your support for all of them, especially for Rachelle, Jonathan, Agnes and Winnie. Make their jobs easier by co-operating with them yea ? (:

Many thanks also to Jeremy (Coach), Jeremy Wu and Gary Su for your constant support, and many tough trainings to make us stronger, discipline and more resilient. (:

Cheers,
Hui Hiang :D

'you got it all, believe it'

hi all,

it really touches me so much to know and be able to feel your care and support during the past sunday's still water competition. i may have been competing against team rp but i was really glad that i had all your backs when i hit rock bottom. i didnt need to ask at all but like a natural instinct, i had you guys lending me shoulders for me to cry on and pats on the back and words of comfort and encouragement. i cant explain how happy i am to you guys that im so thankful for the support and never giving up on me though i was representing a different team.

i was never wrong to not give up on team rp, it was worth the fight to build us up and it will never be unworthy at all for all that we have gone through and will go through.

thank you team :)

Everyone, GREAT job in this year's NUS Invitational !

As for those who did not do well in some of your events, don't be sad or discouraged, as this is just the beginning of the competition !

There is still the Nationals to come in the later part of this year, which we shall aim to do better in our events than what we did in NUS. It means that we'll have to train harder for it ;)

Believe in yourself and NEVER let others sway you off by what they say or do.
Never ever forget that your team will always be there to share your pain and joy ! :D

Failure is part of success, we will all have to learn in our life :)

Cheers,
Hui Hiang (with many contributions from Marvin)

Hey,

To all that visit this blog, please note that the holiday training timing is as follow:

* MEET AT THE POOL NOT THE BADMINTON HALL. BE THERE AT 9 AM SHARP !

No matter how tough training is, or how much you wanna give up, don't quit :)

It'll all be worth it in the end.

i must say that i really am truly touched and i do appreciate all your efforts for throwing me a surprise birthday party. i've never had a birthday party before, not to mention even a surprise one but you guys made me so happy on the 4th of april 2010.

my 21st with you guys was awesome. me being me, i loved all the surprises, the decorations, the cake, the games and basically everything that all of you put together for me. in short, i felt in the lime light, centre stage and obviously like queen. haha! love it all!!!

anyway, the point is that i just want you guys to know that i am so thankful to have team mates like each and everyone of you. though i have graduated and havent known the juniors for very long, but im so happy that we bonded and all of you still made the effort to want to celebrate my big 21st with me :)

thank you so much for making my 21st so special my dear team. this day i shall remember for the rest of my life!

xoxoME.
