Oh well...

Training was pretty horrible today... I was looking forward to rowing K2 with jasmine until i found out that we were going to have time-trials for nationals. Whaaat... it's the second time we're rowing together and a looong time since i've touched a K. =( the timing was screwed. the rudder was screwed. my rowing was screwed. i couldn't put in much power and Jas probably felt it as well. sorry! ><

We did much better the first time we rowed together. Much much much much better. Jas was also getting super stressed out from the rudder and directions. Ahhh stop apologising for it!! Yeah, we're covering a lot more distance from the zig-zagging and stuff but i'm not blaming you at all! You're not pulling anyone down! We'll try to avoid using Berserker from now. hehe. And the boat's REALLY STABLE and i mean really really super stable rowing k2 with you, so i didn't have to worry about capsizing at all. =))

To keep my new partner's sanity, i think i'm going to try sitting in front for a change. The first time i'm doing this but i hope it'll go well. Haven't had a lot of good experiences with the rudder =.= WE CAN DO THIS! let's look on the bright side, we were pretty good during the sets last week and at that time
altho i'm pretty sure shaun only saw our suckier sets

we didn't even do any bursting!!!! =)

Went to Coronation for lunch with some of the seniors... helped cheer me up quite a bit. Ended up sleeping most of the afternoon which means that I would have to stay up to attempt to do some studying tonight.

My mom's been having a fever for the past 2 days, gonna take her to the doctor's tomorrow. It's been a long time since she's fallen sick so i hope she gets well soon. I'm sure she'll get well faster if she rests more often. Yesterday when i called back to check on her, she sounded so terrible so i ended up going home right after school. The moment i got home, i found her doing some washing to "sweat it out" $%(*^$# So much for resting.

Meanwhile, I better make sure i don't fall ill too... though i've been feeling like shit these few days. JIAYI although i keep refusing your disgustingly huge multi-vitamins, i've been taking my own vitamins at home which are easier to swallow. yay. =)
