Was talking to laode regarding my msn nick.
What's worth the price is always worth the fight.
She questioned the price I want at the end of the day.
Its not just the Cup. Its Glory, its Pride, its the price for all the sweat and tears for the past trainings.
Every training is not easy. We pant like mad or we feel like quitting maybe I shouldnt speak for the team. For me, bad training days make me feel like quitting, like a wuss. But somehow I still pulled through the whole training and back on the next. Sometimes staying on is perhaps not that difficult, some for fellow team mates, some for the passion to row, but for me, I will feel like an asshole if I choose to quit. Its the ego in me that cant let the cowardy side of me take over. Sometimes I questioned myself how can I take on another 3 years of rowings. How can I go through so many more trainings telling myself shit I should have quitted. But there will always be people who will pull me back and throw me a reality check. I'm here because I chose to be here and I didnt choose to leave cause I'm just too egoistic. Beat that. And people like qy, my buttzy and yes TED2(hello) who will share with me their experiences and give me a whole new reason to stay on. And today, I've learnt. Simple words can make huge differences. Fang kai lai hua is what she told me. I tried to stay extra focus during trainings today and not allowing myself to shut everything out and get immune to the the systematic rowing cycles. And I felt good. I managed to look at the people around me, read their body language and shout whatever I want. Today there was PUSH PUSH PUSH AH LAI AH I like this one.
Make a difference, be the fireball in the boat to ignite the passion in everyone.
Whether we win this cup or not, let this be the best ever race.
Pain is only temporary, giving up is forever.
