The Internal Race was a total nightmare.

The current was strong, the wind was light and it kept shifting. So in the end, of the 4 races, I only managed to complete one. The rest of the time, I drifted so far I couldn't even manage to reach near the starting line.

But this is not going to be my last race, I'll improve with every session I attend :)

I'm off to Vietnam in like 18hours. Will update the blog when I'm back.

Merry Xmas to all my blog readers :)

(Credits to samuel for sending me such a nice picture, just had to share it with everyone else)

I'll be away to Vietnam from 1-6 Jan. Those dates that are blank means I'm still available and free. Anyone free can sms me I'll go plan something to do :)

Anyway, photos from canoe expedition and mambo outing are up on facebook. I'm plain lazy to reupload here. oops

Looking at the number of things to do on my calendar, I'm just happy that this is the most fun-filled holiday ever in my life (for now).

Very appreciative of all the effort of those around me who helped plan for all these activities. I have to admit that I'm a very lazy guy. Most of the time I wait for people to plan stuff to do, sometimes I don't even help out. In the end, I complain that I'm so bored at home with nothing to do, especially when all I need to do is just to call/sms people and plan something out. This is a bad habit and it shall be my target for 2009.

Haven't had time for reflections during this holiday but I'll find time to do just that. That shall be all, its time for Internal Race training.

More photos from the camp (taken from samuel's waterproof camera)

Finally a nice pic of me surfing (without falling into the sea)

New profile pic :)

flying the invisible kite

the kite was the most popular item in the camp (other than the windsurf equipment)

another committee photo.

Like what sab said," After the camp, I'm being to like windsurf even more :)" Very much indeed. Oh man I feel like joining the Internal Race but there are just too many pro around. Next day morning still going overseas. How?

Away for Camp 11-13 Dec. It's time to enjoy the sun,sand and the wind :)

While I generally welcome people to read my blog, I do hope that the readers identify themselves so that I can still get a sense of who you guys are.

In case anyone still doesn't know it, every time you click on the ads on my blog, you guys are helping me to earn money. haha. then I can give a treat when I get the money. The ads been there for almost half a year but I haven't even earn my first payment. Haiz...Low traffic to the blog :(

But that's not the main point, the ads also help me to identify blogs that visit mine. Most of the regular bloggers are my friends, but there is this particular blog that I hope he/she can identify himself/herself. http://away-wego.blogspot.com/ , If I know you that's good, if not I hope you can leave a tag or a msg.

Thanks a lot.

(pardon me if I sounded too harsh, I just don't feel good when I see unfamiliar readers who don't acknowledge themselves)
