Last canoe and gym today.
Brought nitec to the secret training area in kallang. He's going faster now, can keep up with my easy paddle. He went and made a rather expensive sacrifice to kallang basin though.
Then went to eat one last time at the prata place then gym.
Walau just thinking about it makes me kinda depressed. 3 weeks with no canoe, unfamiliar gym, unfamiliar running grounds... unfamiliar people.
No more home, computer, piano. No dota?! WTF!
My only consolation is the 5 star hotel, psp with tonnes of games, and mp3 player. -_-
Feels like the night before I went to BMT. But this time I won't have to lay low.
I just finished packing for 3 weeks in a couple of hours. I must be god of packing because I've nailed everything that I need.... or maybe training in the recon unit helped somewhat.
Blargh.

Well the plan to punk nitec kia with a friendster account came to naught when a himbotic proboscis monkey let the cat out of the bag too soon.
Would have written a more in-depth profile but there was dota going on that night.
Learned some stuff about tuxedos today. Like as long as the jacket has a shiny lining its a tuxedo. Older contemporary tuxes have tails but the more modern ones don't and have more buttons.
And one of the tuxedos I'm bringing over costs about 600 bucks.... and I'm bringing 4.
I leave on friday morning, 630am to represent the country for a 3 week long event whereby there will be so many physical challenges it sounds like survivor... but in a 5 star hotel.
And I haven't even started packing yet.
Hahaha.
There's too much stuff to do. Too little time.

Tonight's mid D run: 17mins
Shouldn't have ate so close to the run. Food kept coming out before I could hit the desired heart rate.
Impacted against a power box halfway during the run.
Perhaps there are some things that I don't have total control over yet.
The reaction to the pain from a blow still produces the same feelings.
The build up in the affected area and 'his' voice again.
Was quite difficult trying to silence him. Releasing some energy helped somewhat but didn't make him go away completely.
Sometimes I wonder how long it will take to snap out of the fighter's mentality.
Perhaps I need it. To provide the contrast as to how I want to live my life.
I imaged my hand stopping his heart, and the grasp on his head before the snap.
Looking at my hands after that, I woke up, and felt disgusted with myself.
I'm stronger than this, but sometimes my demons seem just as strong.
At times I wish that I could forget some parts of my past, forget the movements, forget the feelings, forget the pain.
Deal with it, Reu.

Feels kinda weird because we were at loggerheads for quite some time, but the ex-boss wrote such a potent testimonial... I'm glad we managed to come to a truce at the end.
Here it is, with names and such censored to confuse google's bots.

Canoed with Nitec kia in the afternoon. He made 2km without capsizing all of a sudden which is good because it shows that he's not a total retard. 1 on 1 coaching is really the best way to facilitate development. I now realize how lucky I was to have a coach who would bother to do that for me. And who would hook me up with literally the country's best in hopes that it would rub off on me haha.
But in the end it was too soon. I know that I dissapointed. But its not over yet.
Nitec should be ready to do sprint work in about a month thanks to my awesome coaching. Hopefully then we will get some fierce training done. There's still pa race in june with dog.
The commissions for my work keep coming in. I'm afraid, because I haven't even started my plans to go public and advertise yet. If it pours too heavily I'm going to be overly stressed out again. Though the cash will come flying it, but its not like I gave too much of a damn about that in the first place.
I just want to enjoy my work. That was the point in the first place. If things get too heavy I'm going to have to start a queue or start being selective.
