masterpiece.
i'm getting this really bad habit of sleeping too much this few days.
anyhow i've got this blog entry drafted in my mind on the bus! i still remember it was bus 96 i think. haha. but yeah i keep forgetting what i drafted but i finally remembered. i wanna blog about:
sportsmen and their image of being all brawn but no brain.
haha. nah maybe that's a too serious title for what i'm going to say later. pls do not get your hopes high on that i'm gonna type a research paper later coz all i wanna say is that. i realised that during this submission period, even when i'm kept far from my sport (i didn't get to go down to support my girls compete! boo.) the canoeist still lives in me.
it keeps telling me "let's go! come on you can do it!" over and over again, even when prof z slammed my design 2 studio sessions ago and insisted that i might not be able to finish in time. even though i'm supposed to be stressed and depressed and obviously convinced that i really can't finish in time (coz for goodness sake my tutor just told me she thinks i can't finish!), the canoeist immediately brush it away and says "come on! as long as you try your best. that's all that you need to do isn't it?" and then the fire burns in me again and i went back and slogged for the next few days (with msn off) just so that i can prove prof z wrong.
haha. in the middle of the whole episode i stood away from the canoeist mentality and suddenly realise that it's how laughable that whenever there's something that i need to work for i'll always tell myself "let's go! you can do it! just do your best!" and blindly believe in it and relates everything to canoeing races just so to get it over and done with. haha. it even seems as if i'm just blindly chionging and the mysterious fire burns for mysterious unknown reasons. now i know why people call sportsmen only brawn no brains coz i see that in myself! i don't think why am i doing it, i just do it coz well nike said so. (well not exactly i was trying to be funny there i hope people sees it.)
fellow canoeists or canoeists-to-be! beware! side effects of being one includes: misleading mentality making you think everything is do-able coz "as long as you try your best that's the most important thing isn't it?", keep telling yourself "let's go!" and risk being mistaken as a psycho by your friends or even the guy that happens to sit next to you on your bus journey home from studio (actually the let's-go only applies to nus canoeing girls maybe. haha. the bad influences of ac canoeists), the "just-chiong" mentality which leads to you not exactly knowing the reason why you are doing things coz well you just wanna do it and get it over with, the image of being "just brawn no brains" coz you can't blame others from thinking that of you if you suffer from the above-mentioned side effects.
haha. and yes pek this include you too alright. i bet you're like that too.
haha. serious stuff aside (oh-my-goodness that's actually serious to me) i absolutely love this dance routine. i love it so much i've been practicing it at home to keep fit (ok just kidding).
spot of brilliance.

almost.
