it had been a long week.


had a 5 day regatta....draining.
mentally... for the first 3 days
the wind just wouldnt pick up.
terrible.
AP AP....had to fight a battle with the currents.
the shifting winds. headers...lifters...
game plan game plan....
hot sun. sea sick.... everything
but i gotta thank weiguo...
he is a good coach.....
and he was right....i should be sailing a whole lot better den wad i did for this regatta.
shouldnt be so far behind ven...
he's very right.


4th day was even worst.
the worst of all.
2 races...
one which was strong wind.
couldnt hike out much....was struggling like a poor shit.
and claudia was flying....i could just see her way in front of me....with her boat flat...
and me....almost capsizing everytime i tack. crap.
the other was even more horrendous...
i couldnt start on time.....
i started like 10 mins late...
but i did sail well for it...just a terrible start. sigh. and that did screw me up real bad.
it's just disgusting. as weiguo would say.
but the day ended on a nice note....
when he came down.... and sailed my boat back with me...
thanks for coming down dear.....it was really sweet.


today was the best...
i sailed the best race in my life.
i had the prettiest start ever... first boat off and flying.
if only weiguo was there to see it...den he would stop saying my starts are killing him.
but....i guess i gotta thank you....for nagging at me the night before.
last race was gorgeous too....finished off sixth.
a great battle fought.
and hence....we beat MJ...yes...YEAH...we did it!!!...
nice one ven. nice one grace.
thanks for coming down too....grace ros zhenfang.
a big huge thanks for being there.....


had dinner with his family too.
one word.
fun.


i'm just tired now....sleeping time
