Company cohesion day was fun. Cycling, Canoeing, playing frisbee, and dodgeball.

Haha on the third round of dodgeball I was untouchable btw, hoohah!

I sprained some weird small muscle tendon or something on the left side of my back... it hurts like a pinch when I try to twist to my left or shoulder press >_<


Got a distress call from Dennis. Erm... bugger had some misinformation or something. As much as I tried to resist being the hero to clear things up, and reminded myself that if let my ego take over and be the hero to help the them, they will grow weaker while I grow stronger. Dependance on me is the last thing I need from them. They need to learn and grow on their own, learn how to handle these kind of things.

But... partly because the miscom wasn't their fault entirely, and partly because my credibility was on the line, afterall, I was the one who taught him, and assured bugger that all would go well once I left... so I went and did it. They still need to clear things up on their end tomorrow anyway.

Then there's the suprising appearance of some people at nteam training haha.

And some distress on decisions.

I had the choice back then to work on the alumni team. But I didn't.

Partly because an opens mens boat requires 20 guys... ridiculous... half of the alumni would have beer bellies by the time we had those numbers.

And seeing the realistic number of hours of training we were going to be up against...

And ns killing alot of my time, completely from the team probably.

Even if we had the best rowers from recent years come back... Hong, Boonsan, weiwen, chester, roy, jingwei, james, ah san, winston, jon, and me, we would have one of the best baby boats, but there are no races for mens baby boats.

It seemed like the ultimate losing battle.

One battle that I didn't want to take.

I just wanted to row, with a strong team.

And more and more, all around me, were signs telling me that I was out of nyp, that I wasnt a student anymore, that its time to move on.

Like-minded people need to come together instead of fight their own battles.





But maybe thats what everyone thinks, thats why theres not enough alumni.

If your chances are better, go for it.

Things were more fun when we were the underdogs anyway.
