interesting day today is are was.

Today is are was interesting in many ways...oh yes oh yes...mmmhhmmm. Morning was normal training as usual till the weights session came along and i had to arrange the massive group of us into groups to squeeze into the 10 exercises. Perfect order in chaos is the best way to describe it. reminds me of the AC training which i havent attended for wat seems like forever now. People running around rushing to their stations in 10 secs before the set starts...some doing weights..some resting....stopwatch beeping every 30 seconds...chaotic order. Junior men are working hard and i hope this can last. Working in groups will enable mass and rapid improvement. Com'on guys...we are strong and even if we aren't, soon we will be! just wait!

That was the morning. Then went for a short afternoon session which required 30+ minutes. But somehow assumptions are made here and there and well, things go wrong. ended up coach,bill,andrea,shaun and me got locked out of the paddle lodge.Went round borrowing a phone trying to make calls to whatever numbers we could conjure up...i conjured two wrong numbers....hahahha Ooooooopps. After several tries we got clarence in malaysia and finally someone was contacted and by 8 we were packing up (V.late).

Listened to bill and coach debate issues...etcetc...quite eye opening. Made me think abt what i want from canoeing which i already know...but still think anyway. But after all that debating only one thing matters to me which is to "succeed despite". Despite the conditions, despite the people, despite the challenge etc etc etc. This together with self belief,hard work...and pure passion will be enough to bring you to the top, the highest peak and the edge of human physical abilities. At least thats what i believe and i believe it with all my heart. That's all i need.
