My hands are trembling now after dragonboat fitness training. My standard is way off any usual dragonboater you pick out from the street. Really, my captain was right to send me onto a individual training session. I was quite surprised but was greatly in debt to him for his genuity. He got me to do chip ups first, 2 sets of 30, but of course I can't do chin ups so I had to do the assisted chin-ups, with the fitness instructor in the gym teaching me how to use the machine. I did all 60 but my arms were kinda stiff after that. Later captain asked me to go do 5 sets of 20 jumping jets, push-ups, crunches and an "fish-like" exercise (I can't spell the name). I died on the 3rd set as I couldn't push-up anymore. I struggled with the remaining 40 push-ups and probably earned myself a fame as "SMU #1 loser". Really, if you walked past me, you would think who is this idiot who cannot do his rounds like a any other man out there. I can't disagree, but I guess I will still continue until I achieve my aim to be a fitter person. I may not be rowing like them in the competitions, but I hope to really get better in terms of strength, endurance and of course looks! I swam 30-40laps 5 days a week during my army days just for the sake of weight losing but now there isn't such conveniences anymore. Neither do I have the impulsive feeling to continuously do so, hence my failure to stay fit.

The day passed by without much event, but amazingly I woke up at 8am only to go back to bed again and rose finally at 2pm. This is freaky! I wonder why do I sleep so much now...

The funny thing I saw when I woke up at 8am was that my sweetie dou stole the poohs' blanket for himself as the rest had no blanket to cover even though I did cover them before I went to bed. Haha. Of course this is not a supernatural sighting. I believe the weight of the potato chip can rolled the entired blanket together with sweetie dou down the pillow onto the bed and thus only he got covered while the rest slept in the cold. Nonetheless it was pretty cute (though cruel) to see this.

I guess that's about all I have to say...
