well the 3rd week of june hols is almost over and i'm kinda starting to realise that school is starting soon! hoho.
this past week has been pretty productive in terms of training, but in terms of work, ahhem. training more often than usual has proved to be very fulfilling. besides being able to increase fitness level and all, it's been great getting to know fellow team mates better :) truly. ahha i'm finally starting to feel part of the team. people are starting to converse with me more often and it's easier to talk. so, hurray! i'm happy at least. hm the most frequent training-goers have been sean and clarissa. haha it's always just the three of us at first.
what a nice time to have a mini tribute to each of them.
SEAN ;
pretty funny, sean has been nicknamed tanyiloong (chinese name), polygon (his bike brand, monty asked if he was regular or irregular HAHA), longgou boy (he fell into the drain three times i think. LOL) and milo (he was wearing a shirt with MILO printed across the other day). he's pretty funny, favourite phrase is "hou la hou la" which means "okay la okay la" in some dialect, if i'm not wrong. training's always pretty funny with him around. no, scratch that, training is always SUPER funny with him around. HAHAHA. sorry thinking of prev incidents...
CLARISSA ;
she's my closest friend in tas, despite having first met her some time last year at one of the aquathlons, and always going for the same competitions, i only started talking to her at my second tas training session. it was the macritchie run and we were slacking on the way back. hahaha. since then, it's been a great time having her around. she's probably THE most constant training goer so when i go she's always around. yuppp, we often gossip or complain about jina. HAHAHAH one of the hobbies that we nts members all have. most of us anyway. i got her a nike squirt waterbottle as a thankyou and goodluck present for her korea tri :D she's truly been a great help in helping me to adapt to trainings and all. always joking. lol. super skinny girl who's full of muscleee, i aspire to one day get a body half as skinny as hers ;)
ahh i'm going to miss them when they go to korea :( but they promised to bully jina while they were there. HAHAHA. speaking of jina, trainings with her around have been interesting i guess. apparently she likes this guy in the team. and we all make effort to tease the both of them. she's pretty obvious about it as well. she was supp to run 12k the other time, but the guy was doing 14k, so she followed him -.-" she told jiaolian this after training when asked why she didn't run what she was told- "wo xing qing hao maaaa" HAHAHAH clarissa and i couldn't stop laughing. then on friday's track session she was telling everyone "eh i'm very energetic today you know, like wednesday like that" (ofcourse in ten times as many words) and true enough, that guy was like sitting right there. hur she was sprinting with him after her trng ended. mmmmmm. okay maybe not that funny here but was so funny there! wahahah. oh!!! then she came in a lime green skirt and like bright orange top to training, it looked truly horrid on her. believe me, you would have to have seen it to understand how bad it looked. even me- without my glasses on, was traumatised. when we all saw her coming, the WHOLE team was laughing our heads off. then jiaolian commented on her dressing and was like "wei! ni men yao ou tu gei wo qu ce suo hor. wo men yao zhu yi wei sheng!" (translated into: if you want to puke pls go to the toilet, don't do it on the road. we need to be considerate and be hygienic) HAHAHAHA we all laughed even more.
moooo hahah. okay sigh i'm tired and my stomach has been cramping up really bad. it's weird cos i never ever get stomach cramps. heh. hm tomkat (tom cruise and katie holmes), funny name they gave them. katie holmes looks like britney... i preferred nicole kidman!!!
wishing everyone a very productive last week of holidays! all the best to swimmers taking part in s'pore open, check out the sportsschool pool and trees and tell me about them! heheh. oh and many thanks to seb for the nice britney song.
