today i understood that two different people can see one similar incident very differently
today i pray that sacrifices don't have to be absolute
and i wish you'd understand what i mean but can't say
-dont read the next para if you dont like idolism-
i was looking for sth to hype me up before the race and...calista showed me her new bright yellow nelo!! :D hahaha omigosh it's BEAUTIFUL...the surface was still damp from its maiden raceset and we spent forever admiring the hull/ footrest/ seat/ rudder...everything. it's nelo VINTAGE (i didnt even know there were different types) which supposedly makes it really fast yet more stable than raptor, i'm so envious; i died swooning over it! we went to say hi to my raptor afterwards and WHY is everyone (seniors, friends, etc...almost everyone who's tried raptor) badmouthing it! okay i know everyone thinks its glide aint that fab and the tilt can be quite bad but...hey its MY boat. jiayou raptor i love you! we can always try to rewrite history together (:
oh and as for stingray...haha we got thrashed really badly but i don't regret at all, that was one heck of a race =D we were praying hard at the 1km line and suddenly this butterfly looped over our boat...starting burst was incredible, maintainence was great and the ending burst was...real sweet. we flew (:
when we let our fear over results dampen our love of paddling...what's the point of pushing yourself further in the sport? just go out, have fun, do our best (:
