my friend showed me this on fb, all pics and words copied exact. in case you don't know, swallows mate for life, which makes this even sadder.

"Here the swallow's the other half (wife). She is injured and the condition is fatal. She was hit by a car as she swooped low across the road."
"He brought her food and attended to her with love and compassion."
"He brought her food again but was shocked to find her dead. He tried to move her....a rarely-seen effort for swallows!"
"Realising that his sweetheart is really dead sadness filled his eyes and sorrow felt in his spirit."

"He stood beside her as his heart weeps for his only love ."

"Finally aware that she would never return to him, he stood beside her body with untold pain and despair."

sigh.

today...grr this morning i left my hse 1hr15min earlier so i'd be on time but guess what...i got off at the wrong bus stop! it took me ages to realise i was at the wrong stop so by the time i caught another bus to the correct stop and switched bus to mac..RAWR. so angry. and on the way home...the same thing happened again! my sense of direction is totally nonexistent.

haha paddling today was cool, first time going down without flooding the raptor beforehand. my left contact lens fell out as i was doing 80% raceset! hahaha i paddled with my head unnaturally still praying that it wouldn't drop off my cheek... in the end i managed to finish my set then put it back (: then during the next set, the raptor chucked me out halfway; but because i'd been paddling fast, HAHA the boat continued on without me! -.- fiona had to go chase it and hold it down before i clumsily swam back! spastic.

then when i was docking at the pontoon, the nose of my boat was gonna hit the side, so guess what? i very smartly stuck out my right hand (the injured one) to stop the momentum. so instead of the raptor bashing its nose, my fingers slammed into the pontoon at full force. mm, such sacrifice...i've this bad feeling that 2 injured fingers just became 4.

okays 2 more weeks. when the raptor's doing good its quite okay, but when it's bad..whoa, SCARY. rebellious to the max i need to tame it asap! :D hoho and yes, i need to keep outta trouble for TWO WEEKS...good luck to me.
