Okay, so I sprained my ankle on Monday. Yup, just the day before my competition starts and I sprain my freaking ankle. At first I was panicking and all, but then I had this wierd epiphany and realised that I DON'T GIVE A D@MN ABOUT SWIMMING anymore. That's right, in my mind my swimming career is as good as finished already. Now I just have to wait till next wednesday when our Interschools actually finish, then I can get on with my life. And boy, will I be happy.

Once we stop swimming, I can finally practise parkour whenever and wherever I want to, I can start going for the ninjutsu classes with my bro and Terry, and I can actually focus(yeah rightXP) on my studies more. But not to say that I will totally never ever touch water again for the rest of my life, I will still train with ACE(our school's swim club) about 2-3 times a week; if not to keep fit, then only to see him... But like I won't get fit doing parkour and ninjutsu anyways=)

And I plan to work out at the school gym after school about 3 times a week, to get more strength and core power especially for parkour. And also, when I told my friends that I would still continue swimming leisurely after school, some of them actually wanted to join me!XD How cool is that??!!! They actually wanna join me to swim after school for fun! SO AWESOME:D and what's more one of my classmates who was a ex-swimmer(he's in chinese orchestra now) wanted to take up swimming again and asked me to write a training set for him!!!^_^ I felt so honoured and embarassed but yeah I tried my best to write a proper set for him. Hope he finds it okay O.o

So yeah, my life is gonna be REALLY happy after we stop swimming. I will definitely have no regrets about leaving swimming(except for the friends we'll leave behind, but we can always keep in touch*sniff*X3) and most importantly I will be doing WHAT I MYSELF want to do. NOBODY can stop me from doing parkour, and I now know that parkour IS what I wanna learn to do(along with ninjutsu, hopefully).

So, SAYONARA swimming(wow alliterationXD) and HELLO brand new life=) I seriously can't wait. Now I just need my ankle to heal, and I'll be up and running again(literally) in no time. Eeep I wanna practise parkour so badlyX3 Frontflips, backflips, wall runs, vaults.... The world is wide open for me=D.


P.S. The week before I sprained my ankle, I was practising rolls in the school hall with Terry. We tried jumping off the stage and rolling, and it didn't hurt at all! FINALLY!!!!!!!XD Admittedly the stage was only about 1.3m high, but still=) We're making progress!!!!!!! Soon we'll be able to jump from like, 1 storey up. Haha just kidding, we still suck and we're nowhere near that level yet but soon....practise makes perfect, and once I quit swimming I'll have soo much time... I promise, I AM gonna learn how to parkour decently.

Okay, so last Wednesday(7th April) when I was warming up during training, I suddenly thought of Toothless and Hiccup. And I had Your Guardian Angel by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus as well as Oh Star by PARAMORE playing in my head. And I actually CRIED when I was swimming halfway. Like, in the water. Still moving and kicking and pulling and everything. And when I reached the end of the pool I had to duck my head underwater so nobody could see me crying. I must have looked a sight, eyes and nose red, swimming and half-sobbing at the same time. I continued crying for about another 8 laps or so, cos the songs just kept playing over and over again in my head and I was so touched and I guess I just felt for them, you know?(so now you guys know my prefered pairingsXP so sue me.) In the end I had to take off my goggles cos my tears were pooling inside them and making me go blind and I forced myself to stop crying before the set ended.


And the next day, I thought of Ronan Keating's When You Say Nothing At All and I teared.

And the next day, I thought of Two is Better than One by Boys Like Girls+Taylor Swift and I cried a bit again.

And a few days later I thought of Chances by Five for Fighting and I cried again.

And I also thought of Hallelujah by PARAMORE and I cried myself to sleep.

And I also thought of Light Up The Sky by Yellowcard and I became emo for a bit.

And last night I was listening to Vanilla Twilight by Owl City and I teared again.

Note that during all the above I was thinking of Hiccup and Toothless. Not just some random emo outburst.


So I guess what I'm trying to say here is that I really really really adore the relationship between Hiccup and Toothless. More than words can say. And I actually want that kinda relationship too...but I guess it's probably never gonna happen. Not in this life, at least.

So, yeah. Sorry if I seem a bit emo in this post, but I just needed to say how I feel. It's so hard when you can't tell anybody...

Recently, the India students came over for about 2 weeks and today is their last day in Singapore(to be more accurately, in school). Boy will I be glad to see them go. Seriously, I thought that coming from India and all they'd be more streetwise and alert than us, but NO. They fool around, lose their stuff easily, and get LOST when we bring them to East Coast Park. Urgh, I know I sound so un - ambassador like, but I seriously don't think I could have taken it for much longer. I'm glad they're going, and hope that the next time I have to play ambassador to anybody won't be too soon.


The only upside of the outing we had on Saturday with them was the fact that my bro and I got to hang out with our friends, and that I got to watch HYYTD again for the second time=) Now I only need to watch it another 3 times to feel satisfiedXD TOOTHLESS!!!!!*squeal*


On further hindsight, I realised that if we didn't have to take care of the Indian students, the outing would have been an awesome one. With only our friends and all. Ah well, when all's said and done, at least I got to see Toothless again=)


And now I am going to make another post gushing about HTTYD. Because I feel that it deserves a post of it's own, and I don't want it sharing the same post as the Indian studentsXP

Just watched How To Train Your Dragon with Terry and Bumsoo at J8. The movie is so cute!!!

Or more accurately, Toothless is SOOO CUTE!!!!!!! OMG KAWAIII!!!!!!!=3 His big eyes look so sweet omgawsh hahaXD Makes me wish I had a dragon as a pet as well;D A Night Fury yeah that would be AWESOME.

It's nice to see more movies about dragons being made nowadays=) Go Dragons!!!!!!!X3

I liked Astrid's hair in the movie, Hiccup's hair was quite cool as well. Good ending, good plot, amazing graphics, overall a great movie to watch(especially for dragon fans like me!)

Can't wait for the second(and subsequent) movies to come out;3
