im damn happy
maxi gold. unexpected
colin gold. by a huge margin. expected.
sengleong 4th going into the last race. i cant even think. i cant expect. i shut out everything and just pray. 1st in race 12. silver medal. expected. but helluva unlikely given the scenario.
reminds me of how he was 3rd going into the last race of the training camp. they way he sailed was fearless. somewhat foolhardy. he won that race. and beat me to the silver. now he did it again in less than 2 months. u deserve it man. i know that im not the best sailor i can be. but looking back. losing to some of them, and getting my heart broken, isnt all that bad cos its a fine bunch of sailors and people. i have no shame now. saying im probably not as good as them now. cos theres no shame. so guys. now u have it. why cai trained so hard. and never made it to doha in a laser. its cos of these 3 fine men. theres much underlying reasons and sacrifice involved along the way. but after they are bringing home $625,000, do u think anyone gives a flying?.
haha im so proud man. the macdonalds man, the rapist and the 13yao zi mo the motorcycle accident man. along the way. i hope i gave u guys hell. the kinda hell which pulled u through the last few days.
on another note. not going was not all lost for me. happiness comes in all shapes and forms.
so i say, one door closes, another must open.
cheers guys. 1.40 sunday. be there cos we're bringing home 4 gold medals with potential for another. and guess what people, we're singaporeans born and raised.
