so far so EXCELLENT!!!

im so happY!!! i finally finished my goldstar swimming test!! today, 25 feb, at 10pm!! the 'invigilator' was super funny and ego!! lol. IVAN TAN!! one of the many lifeguards under Singapore Sports Council.
"aiyo..did you wear ur ahma's pants to take your test? it will drop off la."
"if you all scared of jumping down, just scream my name."
"when you hit someone, continue to swim, don't apologise, shake hands and start chit-chatting."
"don't think about failing, just do ur double best!!"

LOL >.<

i reached queenstown swimming complex at about 8.45am. it's way ahead of my scheduled reporting time 9.45am. anyway, mummy and i were sitting in the canteen, watching the first batch of people taking the test. time passed. 9am....9.30am...i quickly changed into my pyjamas and get ready for the registration. oohh...and i started to listen to the recorded version of fahrenheit's 超喜欢你. it really can make me very high, with all the adrenaline rush and push me to swim faster. in the end, i listened to it for 10 ｔｉｍｅｓ!!! mum was sitting beside me reading the newspaper and playing her 'gameboy' and i was listening and singing. haha.

100m competitive timed swim was strenuous. i was the first to touch the wall and of course clocking a timing of LESS THAN 2.30min!!! but my legs turned wobbly with all the accumulation of LACTIC ACID!! i can assure you that i could recite the whole chapter of aerobic and anaerobic respiration out to you at that time. legs hardened with the muscles trying very hard to absorb more oxygen from me...

then, the 1500m of long distance swim arrived!! backstrokes were HORRENDOUS!! i hit the person left and right of me at least 4 times. very painful!! i hit someone on the back and the head and scratched another. NOTE: i am not violent. (:
side swim and front swim were alright cos i kept singing to myself the song!!! but can you imagine yourself swimming 10 laps of back, 10 laps of side and 10 laps of front crawl [freestlye and breast stroke]? i would rather run 1.5 km on LAND. it only takes about 8 to 9 minutes. swimm 1.5km will take at least 45 min. see the difference?

anyway, i got my gold star medallion and i can continue to learn lifesaving!! AND AND...i don't need to wear pyjamas AGAIN!!

超喜欢你 is my LUCKY CHARM!!! yoohoo!! share my joy!! (:

gotta continue study physics!! Mr. Electricity and energy, here i come!! i LOVE you!! hope this will help me remember more physics formulae!! i love you too, mdm differentiation!!
