it's here.. the swimming nationals start for me tmr morning.

it's been quite a week. i am just glad that i am standing ready to compete levelly with the rest of the swimmers. it is a huge relief that my groin injury has shaken off. i'm pumped up and ready to go.. in practice today, the arms were doing right, so were the legs, and i wish to max it out tmr.. all the weeks of training, culminates in a single race(s).

well, some neighbourhood news. got a pretty good look at the neighbourhood ah bengs who were at the pool getting some of the afternoon sun. aiyoh, they play catching in the swimming pool. with their gfs, they prowl the pool, making it theirs. they cut around, cutting into the way of the swimmers doing laps. today, i counted three groups.. u know, with bengs, anything can happen.

greece. they are the champions. they were the underdogs, they are the team. in spite of their success, the common perception still holds that they aren't the accomplished team. it remains to be seen if they can stay at the top of their game in the future tournaments. if they do, it does almost certainly represent a titanic shift in the balance of power in european football.

i'm just jumping from topic to topic.
got to talk to ruoxi, laura and tao sun. rox n tao sun are back from melb and hk respectively.. glad they're going the path of life they have decided to pursue. it's really great to be talking to these 'old' friends. the world isn't just studies. there's certainly more to it, more to learn, more to experience, more to live for.

to wesley and siwei, the competition period now beckons. it doesn't loom, u race up to it, u face it, u grab it, carpe diem. be well fellows, let's get some results.
