ok..yesterday was quite an emo day.. it was the stepping down of the J2 canoeists.. the entire team gathered at Melville Park condo function room for lunch..after which all the seniors gave their respective speeches.. though most of them appeared cheerful, i could tell that deep in their heart they were very sad.. most of them cried.. it was a really sad scene.. thought i didn't teared.. the point where i felt the most emo was when our cap, jon, gave his speech. it was really really sad and touching.. i could tell he was holding back his tears while he was talking. they were the first batch of canoeist Mr chua had in tpjc.. and definitely the most inspired and motivated batch of canoeist.. it was no wonder mr chua teared too..

to all my seniors, u guys were a bunch of wonderful ppl and had definitely motivated me to train and work harder for the next 1 year. Your strong fighting spirit that lasted all the way had truely inspired me and im very sure everyone else feels the same. All the encouragments and guidiance from u guys were priceless and i'll definitely remember them forever..

To jon, weiming, sarah, alicia, grace, wee kang, huijie, huiying, jacob, cheryl and clara, im gonna miss all of u all!

even after i went home, i was affected for the enitre day. had mixed feelings, and also thoughts on how training would be like without the seniors around..definitely would be different

no matter wad happens, fellow team mates, lets all train hard together for the final show down in the 2007 nationals and make not only ourselves proud, but also the seniors, and Mr Chua especially!
