I’m glad NAPFA’s over- specifically the dreaded standing broad jump. I’ve never done well in that station before. Nonetheless, I guess I did alright ((:

Yesterday was the first time I went back to school in over 2 months, I must say, enjoyed my time in school. I felt like a student again, meeting my ex club-members, walking the same path I used to take when I walked to the clubroom or to the stadium.

And I met Joanne! ((: HI JOANNE, I MISS U.

My first partner for relay duathlon k2. Remember the time when we saw the ‘croc’ at Macritchie? Not to forget Yanli and Patricia. I miss training with u guys whether land or water. You guys really gave me the strength to push on. I enjoyed my time in SPCT, but nothing beats the time spent with you guys.

Yanli & Joanne: You two were practically like my boyfriends, I’ve never spent so much time with someone. Being together on land wasn’t enough. We also had to be together on water and in the water (when we capsize)! You guys played a major part in my poly life. Training hard & sacrificing my body to bring home a medal, it was totally worth it.  I <3 u all! MWAHS.

Sadly, I had to concentrate on another sport.It’s not that I dislike wakeboarding. In fact, I enjoyed it a lot. I brought up the club, to what it is now.

Coming to that topic, I would like to say that I’m really proud of you Donavan. I’ve seen what you have done from the club. Yes, I know you feel demoralised when members leave the club, when you tried your best to pull people in for land training and only a handful of them turned up. You know, I’ve been through all those(maybe worse). I was really alone, no seniors(but they were a great bunch of guys) to help me as they had graduated.  All those crap that people throw at you, you just have to take it, and learn from it. But of course, those who are just being unreasonable, forget about it. Take it as part of your learning journey.

Being a president of a club ain’t easy. Being a female president in a sports club makes it harder. With guys and others your own age undermining your capabilities. However, at the end, I must say that I feel rather proud of myself. Being able to push for subsidies from none and also for new equipment.

As for the handing down of post, I would still like you to continue for a second year. But if you really insist, I trust your judgment. I’ve seen the juniors, and I think you have a batch that respects you.  But remember this, do what is best for the club, not yourself.
