yesterday's pinnacle race, 3rd place! wow. i think it's like... how long since i touched a medal?! omg.
it's a great achievement for me? because it's the first time i'm racing, and in this kind of adventure race too. in the race, really pushed damn hard. ran with TaiLim, and we really motivated to get a medal luh. it's really cool and great to aim high, and when you get it, it's damn fun.
i remember at the start, i really felt like giving up. but seeing T running so hard, i felt the motivation to carry on and bit my lips to push harder. we passed many, and were 2nd at the start.
the 3rd and 4th team caught up, and we were 4th. i really felt angry and discouraged. T even said if we cannot catch up to them, we shave botak uh! but by a twist of fate, we caught up with the 3rd while crawling under the bridge.
when we reach the bridge, 3rd was right in front of us. i just felt that surge of energy to surpass them, and literally leaping in front of them and by the time we got out of the bridge, we surpassed the 3rd team and put ourselves in 3rd place. it became a source of motivation for both of us.
continued running, until the bicycle station. with me always saying to run until the check point, we can rest a bit, we always ran when there's energy beaming.
the entire race, we couldn't really find the 2nd place anymore, they were always 6 minutes away from us. damn tiring, but really cool to have a partner to run, sharing the hardships down to even water, i'd say it's a feeling one should always remember.
in life, you'd probably never feel this same exact feeling again, because everybody change, so we should cherish.
we kept running, passed many other teams from other categories, and ran and ran and ran. so many helpers we passed by, so many players we ran through. it's great knowing we are better.
until school, our motivation never died. the "M" was a killer. it isn't as simple, and even if you seen it in a glance, you'd probably forget the arrangement.
the ascending and abseiling was cool, and swim too. then ran all the way to our ending point. 2hrs, 18mins.
my first medal in so many years. i think it's really cool.
after race, went home and met the rest for movie at Lido. Transformers 2
the movie is cool, but storyline is probably the main demerit luh. to me, i'd rate it 3/5 bah. ask me why it's so low, just simply because a movie is WOWed for it's graphics, i think the storyline is more important. remember how Titanic and Catch Me If You Can movies have not much fantastic graphics? they both got 5/5. most of the many movies like GodFather also had high ratings, and they were rated because of their captivating storyline.
Transformers' storyline is simply predicatable bah. =) so 3/5 star.
last night's HTHT was really and exposure session. mainly because of me, the awkward scenes and all. sorry J, but i felt that was the right thing to do. and perhaps what ZY said is right, i am truly selfish. it's a fact that i can change, and i should. it is always what kept me surviving for so long. or perhaps it's really just another side of me that surfaced?
"when asked a question, i'd always divert and twist." why? is it because of my defensive nature? am i truly just afraid of showing my true nature and thus surpressing it? or am i just another guy who doesn't want the whole world to know everything?
sometimes my inner self scares me. sometimes i know things before it even happen. sometimes unconciously i say things i don't know and it's true and right. hurhur.
shoot me.
REGINA, MING MING, DENISE, YING, SIEW YUNG, KINLU, I LOVE ALL OF YOU MAN!
okay that was total randomness. =)
