This blog is created to honour the end of my Nationals Inter-School Canoe Championship 2009 and the end of a Canoeist Career in Junior College.
The 1st few post will be dedicated towards the setting up of this blog and will convey my thoughts and feeling over the 4 days event to honour the Sports
which I really believe in, fought for, bleed for and gave my life to.
not for O, not even for A, but for C

Not for O'level, not even for A levels, but for Canoeing!Canoeing has always been the hardest thing which i fought for. To compare the effort that I have put into my preparation for O'level and Canoeing is a gap that is further than the distance between heaven and earth. Ever since the day i exploded with resolution to make a change in 2008, JC1, away from gaming and gambling, my life changed. It was supposed to be for a good cause, it did serve its purpose. I wanted to be strong, i wanted to get stronger. Whatever it is, having a pathetic life is what I see as my failure for my inability to win a fair lady's heart - at least what I see as being most important at that point in time.
I did not accomplish anything much in particular. I did not win any spectacular medals, I am not incredibly strong. One thing for sure. I earned my life. Thank you Canoeing, you gave me the biggest thing in life that no educational certificate is able to give. You earned me strength that no training in the world can instill. You earned me resolve, that no amount of hate is able to give rise to. This journey, there is simply no amount of monetary value that is able to buy this authentic experience.
The curtain will close on April 26th 2009, TPJCanoeist(TPJ08) : The Last Stand. Before the curtain close, let me see you one more time, just once more is enough, one last time before I say goodbye. We have trained so hard, gone so far. Let's not worry about the rest and use every bit of our energy, our resolution, our courage, belief and faith and give everything we have to enjoy this race. For the team, for canoeing, let's pick up our paddle and make our last stand.
For the sports that we believe in. For Canoeing!
