hiaz..

harlo.

sorry, ppl. i nv blog for a real long time! :)dunno wad to blog abt. hiaz.

fine. yesterdae juz went to a competition. i hateeeeeeeeeeeee competitions. hiaz. it's track n field competition, by the way. So, i was to run 3000m. Hate comps, n hate track comps more!!! cross-country is better, got scenery, no one watching until last part, n even if ppl overtake u, u still noe dat she was slower, then became faster.

unlike track comps, all u do is run in circles, all those curves, my muscles ache more bcos of all those curves, n everyone is watching, n after some rounds, when ppl overtake u, dat means dat they r one round ahead of u! isn't dat worse. very discouraging one...:(

i saw this weird-looking man, who was rather tall, but is sho skinny! he actually looks like jian xiong, zhenghua ppl rmb? except older n wif bulging muscles. dat's the weird part. he's muscles were bulging sho much it practically looked as though his muscles were stuck on, rather than past of his flesh! u wun be able to imagine how it looks like exactly unless u saw him.

my race was supposed to start st 4.40pm, but we ended up waiting till 6 something pm. those ppl ar, nv plan everything properly. wad, 20 min for 2 3000m runs! shd at least give 30 min wad. 2 runs leh, means split into two grps to run leh! ai yo. in the end, they didn't split grps. everyone ran, which is like, 32 ppl. yeah, 32 people!

then, they split us up into two grps, one start at the starting line, another start at the starting line in front. then grp at the back can cut into the 1st lane at once, while the other haf to be at lane 5 until further ahead. so it's still the same distance. if u dun understand, it doesn't matter. i ran n was following this girl frm nanyang polytechnic. btw, this is open event. which means ppl frm any age can take part. which means, sec 1s can, sec 4s can, jcs can, polys can, even unattached ppl can! so, im sure to be very bad. hiaz...

i realised dat gal's name muz be jenny, bcos ppl say "relax, jenny!" to her. n she oso haf a streak of pink hair, n a streak of silver hair. haha. wadeva. i was running, wif the tune of cyndi's yue guang in my mind, then i realised i had a dull ache at the side of my stomach. felt like ache, bcos didn't really hurt. i really wanted to give up a lot of times after 3 or 4 rounds. but i pushed on. haha. my music changed to some catchy one dat was playing frm the speakers there. eng song. haha. those dat go boom boom boom boom. haha.

then, last round, i sprinted all the way, n overtook jenny, n two other ppl. i couldn't rmb if i overtook anyone else, maybe i did, maybe i didn't, but the last round was sheer torture!

dat ache at my stomach, felt like a horrible stitch dat was killing me. it hurt so much, dat after some steps, i clutched my stomach in pain. *ouch* then wif every step, every stride, every jerk, it hurt. it was like *ouch**ouch**ouch**ouch* till now, it still ache a little. hmm, is there some stomach muscles stretches? maybe i shd do them so they wun hurt next time. anyway, i still kept up wif the pace through the whole of the last 400m. i did feel like vomiting, sho i couldn't wait to reach the finishing point.

after wat seems like eternity of hell and torment, i finally rounded the curve to the last stretch. dat's the difficult part. either u make it or break it for really close races. for 3000m, it's juz the timing, usually, u dun get to overtake anymore. all the cheering, all the sutff like last 200m, go! do ur best! and screams, they were juz in the background.

let me tell u, at dat time, i really felt like stopping there n then, but no, it's the last part, i've got to finish it all, then i can vomit! haha. well, i reached the end, clutching my side. felt like vomiting, but i didn't in the end. haha. i was like walking n walking n was refelcting on how badly i haf done, rather than how well.

i realised i didn't do my best n go all out, bcos throughou the race, i didn't run so fast dat i was like sprinting, wif nothing but juz my endurance n determination pushing me on. i was very slow, in fact, n at the end, i didn't sprint my fastest, i slowed down a little. but it felt like the best i can do at that time bcos of dat horrid stitch! ok fine. finally it's over, but there will sure to be more. not to say all dat waiting n stuff. i was so nervous n jittery b4 the race, n my legs were wobbly.

im sure everone is dying to noe wad's my placing or timing. but nono, im not telling u any of dat. all i can tell u is, im not last! yay! yippee! wadeva.

i HATE HATE HATE COMPETITIONS! bcos im terrible. if im the top runner, then i would love comps as i can win ppl n break records n stuff. but it's tiring. really. u need so much determination dat i dun haf, or rather, doesn't want to haf. i'll suffer so much if i run so fast. haha.

ok. dat's all. best wishes, everyone!
