Today was GREAT. First there was dragonboat with the alumni where I was appointed pacer (AGAIN) with Minghui cos no one else seemed to want to pace. Was a bit rusty though, and was very apprehensive cos I didn't wanna screw up! Everything went ok in the end I suppose, but I dunno if I'll end up pacing for real in the race itself. It feels good to hit the water again, despite the CRAZY training prog today. Wanted to do gym tomorrow with him but I'm aching too much lol.
Oh and yes, ladies and gentlemen, I'm proud to announce the return of THE TEAM!

The first FULLTEAM gathering since 020106. It's been what - four months!? Gosh. Happy Birthday Chiteng! I lovelovelove you guys. We BBQ-ed at Peishan's, then went upstairs for the cake and the dessert. Oh, check out shanshan's damn funny cheekopek glasses!

Bwahahhaha. They make me look like some kinda housefly or something. Can't believe she actually wears the thing! But well I had a damn good time - lotsa laughs as usual. Mindy was a horrible chef cos she kept insisting the stingray was cooked when it wasn't, and when we protested she said that she meant to treat us to sashimi ohmygoodness. Then there was the whole hooha with Peishan's brother again, but the kid learnt his lesson and shut himself in his room the whole time so as to avoid us pesky hooligans :)
It really was time well spent, catching up with everyone again.. with Mindy and Peishan entertaining us with their stories, and the teachers (Mindy, Shumin, Rach, Xintian) giving us a crashcourse on how to discipline kids. EH CHUAYIFANG - if you're reading this - what's this I hear about you scotchtaping the kids to a pillar and threatening to stufff spoons into their mouths?!! You absolute tyrant you.. ruining the kids' childhoods! Hehehe.
Gosh, I can't WAIT for the next time we get together again. I love my teammmmm (:
