Ahhhzzzzz.... Once again competition. This is the 1st competition i took part this year. Wondering will there be another Fuji Xerox Open Water swim in Oct O_o".

I saw the banner about this swimming competition 1 day before i go for my Sec Sch Chalet, which is 28th June. No time for me to think through as the closing date is 1st July, which is also my last day at chalet. So after my swim, i go sign up straight. Ticking in all the events, Butterfly + Backstroke + Breaststroke + Frontcrawl. But 4 days before today, the organiser told me Butterfly & Backstroke i am the only participant. So they will need to cancel it, but they will put me into a 4x 50M Freestyle relay. (Note Freestyle = any stroke).

Lets go into the results -
Frontcrawl i was defeated and end up 2nd with a timing of 31.56sec. Because of my slow start -_-" around 0.5sec of delay. But if i start early i will also end up 2nd, because 1st is 29.xxsec. As my best for now is only 30.5sec, i ever hit under 30 before. But it is during my starting of swimming at the age of 9 or 10?

Breststroke is a very funny event. Beside me was two very big size guy, big size in the sense built with V shape. In my mind, i was thinking of damn. No chance le, should be either get 3rd or nothing. Because my this stroke is the 3rd faster +_+" Guess what, i emerge 1st !!! keke.

Lastly, the 4x relay. There is a total of only 5 teams, then after seeing the standard of the rest of the swimmers. If my team is those average swimmer no problem to get a 3rd ba. Looking at my right was the team with the one who defeat me in frontcrawl, right beside him is avery powerfull team with young swimmers. Young sound easy target? Nonono.... Their speed is almost as fast as last time i am, but now my speed full blast might catch up.

The other 2 team is ok ok lahz, i suppose. After talking so much about other team, why never mentioned about my team? Because the two Mr "V" is in my team, so most likely this relay is gone le =(. Because the 2 only know how to swim breatstroke !!!. All the other team members are using frontcrawl loh -_-". 1st 2nd & 3rd spot is cant catch up le, by the time i jump in. 1st & 2nd (the young team & the 1st in frontcrawl team) both had already reached the ending. As 3rd is already 3/4 done =(. But luckily 4th is just 2/5 done, i managed to overtake him and emerge 4th =P.


My 3 New Medals =)

Curious about why got a bar of candy? Keke, thats no candy. After all event had ended, they have a special game session. All who participated in the swim will get a chance to get a price. The organiser will throw lots (lots = to the total num of contestant) of chips down. As each chip had a number on it, i did not jump down for the search. As i thought only limited prices, while sitting at the top. One uncle saw me dont have, so he give 1 of his extra to me. He seem to take extra and pass to those who didnt manage to grab.


My Price Number 10
It is two Orange towel inside...
