Hello, I'm Jazel. I'm on most social media platforms as @JazelTWY. I have had this space since 2008, and I see it as a outlet for my thoughts, when short status updates or instagram captions won't cut it. It's a public private space, of sorts. Comments?



I don't think I can ever forget this feeling.
SILVER BITCHES.

Wah sian want to start already then don't know how continue though I have so many things I wanna post about.

Silver.

So I rowed for the freshie boat last year, and I got a bronze.
The feeling was damn shiok ah.
Like it was my first medal ever.
You know how it feels seeing THREE siblings bringing home trophies after trophies and medals after medals and filling up one whole row in their cupboard while I have NOTHING to showcase at all?
So when I got my medal, I was just like really happy cause I actually achieved something.
Who cares if it was just a bronze or what, I GOT A MEDAL SIA.

CANNOT SIA I suddenly feel damn emotional omg please omg ok.
I was really conflicted on whether to join as a dragon boater for regatta or not, because heck commitments for a long (not really but still) period of time is just like.. so scary since I won't know if I will be able to commit, or want to commit cause I'm lazy like that.

But I went ahead anyway, put my name up and said yes, I'll be attending training.
7th February was my first training.
We have come such a long way (again, not really) from there.

I really left the boat with no regrets today.
I freaking gave it my all and I'm bloody proud of myself and my fellow team mates.
Like I really put in strength into my strokes and my arm was so tired halfway (as compared to training?????) but I was like screw this I want a freaking medal I need that medal and I just went on and oh my god we did it we did it we did it IT FEELS SO DAMN GOOD AH.


What comes after bronze and silver, I wonder..... ;-)

I really have to thank my team mates because without them, I am nothing.
We came this far guys, we came this far.
I really really am thankful I got the chance to row with you all.
It is one of the proudest moments in my life.
Really.
It was an honor.
I really pushed myself and didn't give up because I know I can't let you all down, I can't let myself down.
After everything we been through, all the shifts given up from work, all the outing invitations turned down because I had training, all for the 2 minutes in the water.
But it is all worth it in the end.

As for those I did not get the chance to row with today, I'm looking forward to seeing the gold medal hanging around our necks next year ;-)

Shall post a more proper one tomorrow I don't have that feel

I want talk about FMO but I damn tired wah this.... :-(
