Passion

Rowing was horrible esp when u r rowing negative... What makes it worse is who is beside u... Argh! Had a terrible experience... Hope things would get better soon...

What is dragonboat... It is jus a team sport, unlike canoing or kayaking... Dragonboat requires a lot of teamwork...

It requires the people rowing in the boat to work together, not jus training hard... but bear the passion of dragonboating... But as time progress, people will start to lose the passion and this will start pulling the person away from the team, then from the sport...

I recalled seeing ppl joining dragonboat fer various reasons... Esp after coming to Safsa(NSF)... But within all these reasons... I see a passion in them wanting to row their best... Hving the hunger and desire to win... But this desire and hunger was soon broken down... Due to various events that soon occured...

When the team starts lsoing their fire... It is like seeing the downfall for a team... I recalled being with my team in NYJC... My beloved guys team that i will nv forget... The passion fer dragonboat that builds up in us from nth... It brought the sport to a totally different level... Had to thank Ah Hee fer being such a wonderful coach!!

But what prevented us from succeeding was that time was short and some that had no passion in the sport prevented it... But i do not balme them... It's not easy to get everybody to love something... Like how hard it is fer everybody to eat the same food... people hv their preferences... But a team will still succeed even if not everybody has passion but hv a reason to push themselves to do well fer the gd of the team...

To my NYJC teammates... Study hard guys, the A's is fer u to own, Remember the code[F*** it!] And to the Safsa(NSF), thx fer the wonderful moments i hv wif u guys... Don lose the passion fer dragonboat, bring it back guys! Onli 3 wks left to Regaratta... Let's end the journey of dragonboating in ur NS days tgt with a gd and happy ending... Let's give it our best and hv no regrets... Xiao Di here is wif all of u all the way... Sorry Leonard and guys fer being weird today... i am really not feeling myself today...
