Just being me.

what colourful people i'm surrounded with

yesterday was an interesting day to say the least. I mean, in terms of wind, we really couldn't ask for more. good winds maintained throughout the day gusting above 10 knots at some parts...perfect day for racing. as a result finishing was really stressful, had to teach/delegate jobs to helpful smu helpers who were new to race management and sailing. tough, but they caught on pretty quickly, by the end of 3 races, 2 girls were quite pro at it. :)

but, as we progressed into the evening, a storm brewed, winds were howling and the rain poured down mercilessly. What a way to end a perfect day of sailing conditions.

i had a heart-throbbing car ride back to the east in unc shaw her's car. he was a fast driver to say the least, and in those treacherous conditions of the roads, i had quite a horrifying experience. very scary stuff indeed.

the conversations we had at SB were very colourful too. had lots of laughter and i was doted upon by the uncles. haha...felt good to indulge in a couple of beers and wine once in a while. i think what took the cake was listening to uncle john attempting to speak cantonese and hokkien and his aussie accent. all in good fun i must say... i was really tickled.

good to listen to these kinds of coversations once in a while...widens your perspective about life and stuff.

next sun is another day of heartstopping action at tuas...i hope the wind holds and blows a little more.
