Hey hey people! Am already in Vietnam now. The weather is HOT! No wonder our races are ONLY in the morning. Like it starts as early as 7.30am. So people who's competing at that time,will probably have to warm up at like 6!!! My race is ONLY on Monday and it's only one race. I'm psyched up cos I get to run with people who are soooooooo much older than me. Basically the sixteens and seventeens cos it's a U18 Meet.
It's a bike world here seriously! I think I almost got hit like 5 times already. One which just drove pass me like as if I wasn't there. But it's fun. It'snot everyday that you ALMOST get hit by BIKES! Plus,I haven't seen any cars yet. Maybe one or two but the vehicle population is mostly BIKES,BIKES AND MORE BIKES!
Apparently,there's no wireless connection in the room so I actually brought my laptop for no reason. But Syafiq brought his hardisk so we can actually watch movies. He has tons of them! Good Luck Chuck will be first pick for us. HAHA!
All the ASEAN countries are staying in the same hotel. It's alright. Not the best but still good. :D Our rooms are better than the guys so that's good enough already.
We went shopping just now and the guys went shopping for WOMEN'S lingerie. Couldn't laugh harder when all of them seemed like they were gonna pay for the stuffs already. One of them DID buy from there though.
I'm junking and I'm happy. Mr Pedro just arrived from Ho Chi Minh and already in Da Nang now. It's pretty cool here. :)
I CAN'T WAIT WHEN THE MEET REALLY STARTS! I'll have butterflies all over me again and soon before you know it,my race is done! And I'm done for the year. So it means I have to run my all out. Just shut off the injuries out of my mind. I'm gonna run well and have fun on the track. :D
Anyway,been doing my Math homework. I'm making the effort Mrs Wee! And I'll read your notes once I finish the worksheets. Then I'll be left with Malay and English. :)
Alright. I'll try my best to update everyday since I think I have time like in the afternoons and stuff. :D

Olympics!
The Olympics is gonna end like tomorrow and I'm sad already. Know why? Cos it's the end of another year and we'll have to wait another 4 years to see Olympics Record being broken. It's the end of seeing Michael Phelps swim,the end of seeing Usain Bolt run,the end of seeing Yelena Isinbayeva pole vault in the Olympics 08. I hope USA does better in 2012. :D But you know,the most important is the end of seeing all of us gather in a small room just to watch a race and cheer for someone we don't know,hoping they'll win,do the unexpected,breaks records. It's the end of that. And this will happen again to the future batches of SS people. So I hope they make the full use of it cos the feeling is GREAT! It's when you know that you'll only go through this once. So future batches,make full use of it. Doesn't matter if you get into trouble,cos at least you've got something to tell your children and grandchildren about. The moment that you will remember. :)
Olympics 2008,you have indeed inspired me to be the best in every way I can. :)
