We conquered Singapore! @ 1:40 PM
I was an athletic, a natural sprinter - Could you tell?
Being a sportsperson made me highly competitive. The dark side was.. I couldn't handle failure. Through the years from young till now, I gradually abandoned sports in terms of activeness. Looking back, it was totally a waste. Sports to me now is nothing about medals and trophies. It is a 'tool' to stay toned, healthy and pass time.
Sports is probably my deepest passion. On par with my love for 3D. But sadly, these two things of different nature, do not work the future for me. Often humans would think, what if they can start their life all over again? If I could, I would want to craft my life to fit in closely with the two.
People are furthering their studies in this competitive edge. I thought I was good in communications or at least, not too bad. Er, when I was much younger. I could bravely stand in front of crowds, voice out and demonstrate a great deal of confidence. Like sports, it fade away as I grew older.
When I first got in touch with 3D 4 years back. I spent hours modeling my object to perfection, still I never grew tired of it. Now that I've graduated for a year. Seeing my friends furthering their studies, it makes my heart itch despite financial issues. I log on to SIM uni website, browsed through them. Not long after and I hit 'X'. The business, engineering, IT does not fascinate me at all! I want a primary 3d degree! Bah.. now I'm blabbering non-stop, shifting focus from my original topic.
K, sports. And so to sorta 'rekindle' the fire, 4 idiots participated in a Bike Rally around Singapore. A total route of 127km. It defines our endurance, our struggle and perseverance! I thought this could be easy, but never will I expect the race to be... so effortful and agonising. A mentally challenged moment, when often you find yourself speaking in the brain. "Be Strong! You can do it! Go Raine!".
Super candid. I set the timer too fast!
STARTING POINT: ECP
CHECKPOINT 1: LABRADOR PARK
CHECKPOINT 2: NTU
CHECKPOINT 3: KRANJI
CHECKPOINT 4: YISHUN
CHECKPOINT 5: SERANGOON
CHECKPOINT 6: CHANGI BEACH
We cycled non-stop from dawn till dusk (7am - 6pm). Let me tell you, the slopes are the bitch!!
These bubbles popped out of our heads while we forced our feet against the pedal up slope..
"I'm so not going to do this again.." - Myself
"Why do we even sign up for this" - Huiwen
"I swear I'm not going to touch my bic for 2 weeks at all" - Ryan
And upon asking if we wanna do this again next year?
"WHY NOT! LET'S DO IT!!" - Piao Piao
Lastly, the happiest moment..
ENDPOINT: BACK TO ECP~!!
After the ride, I find it a chore to move a single muscle. For the first night straight after the rally, my thighs were burning! Apparently, my body does not ache 2 days later at all!
I could have blogged this better, but this event had past for quite some time and I'm lazy to recall now.
The photograph below builds up emotions in me.
I could see joy, friendship, unite and love!

My life is like a stroll on the beach...
as near to the edge as I can go.
