Epilogue

My Epilogue

hello canoeists,
this is my last time posting as secretary of canoeing already..J1s next time you see a post on the new blog(if there is), it'll be by your new secretary.
soooo elections for the new executive committee of canoeing will be this friday(20/07)so make sure yall don't plan some class outing or whatever!
i emphasise again; Annual General Meeting is compulsory for everyone- there is no excuse. JC1s if you fail to turn up, it is assumed that you quit canoeing.

JC2s:
Please prepare your speech; your experience in canoeing and advise to everybody. it could be a bunch of lame jokes (like Tzi Qin, remember?) or emo one..whatever you wanna say and have kept in your heart for the past 1.5years!

JC1s:
please seriously think about who you want your future exco members to be, or if you're interested, to be interviewed/nominated (we haven't decided yet) for election. choose someone that will lead all of you, and treat all of you the same way regardless if you're his/her good friend etc. choose someone who can inspire all of you to train hard no matter how tough and how much you feel like giving up throughout your entire journey in canoeing. someone who will commit to this cca no matter what happens, and will always be first and foremost NUMBER ONE in his/her entire time in canoeing.

VENUE: AUDITORIUM EXTENSION (tentative)
TIME: 4PM

hey canoeists,
tomorrow is the day! all of you must be having competition jitters now, but i've got a few things to remind yall.

1) BRING 5 BUCKS TOMORROW for transport. even if you're not taking the bus, still must pay.

2) WHITE jersey tomorrow; BLUE jersey wednesday; CJC LIGHT BLUE thursday.

i've got nothing much to say, but just try your best, and that's the only thing the team expects from all of you. stay focussed; stay calm throughout and everything will be alright. sleep early and have a good breakfast!

645AM at the FOYER tomorrow, please do not be late or the bus will leave.

Captain's words

2007-07-05T22:54:00.000+08:00

CAPTAIN'S WORDS

It's when we fall that we face the impossible
It's when we face the impossible that we lose our hope
But the glory of a person is traversing himself
Traversing his sadness. His anger. His fear.
Giving himself till he's got nothing left
That's the personification of God
We become more than man
We become immortal.

Row your heart out

~~

and sorry for being a lousy captain obsessed with my own anxieties. it's about the team. we win for the team. i nearly forgot that. Let's compete like never before.

Don't Quit!

2007-07-01T22:15:00.000+08:00

Don't Quit

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile but you have to sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit-
Rest if you must but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twist and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a fellow turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow-
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man;
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup;
And he learned too late when night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out-
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
Its when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.
-Luthfi

More Encouragement

2007-06-18T22:08:00.001+08:00

More Encouragement!

"What counts in sports is not the victory, but the magnificence of the struggle, canoeist win races, teams win championships. we can show a certain ISSAC more about a CJC Canoeist in 2 mins of rowing(well, 5 for the 1000m people) than in a year of conversation on his TWO units on the whiteboard. There's a fine line between canoeing and just sitting and rowing like an idiot.Two more weeks guys, make it count."
-BEN

"yea alson its all in the MIND! SAY IT! SAY IT SAY IT!at the end of the day the medals will be around OUR necks. =)
hopefully."
-Desmond

"We Spartans have descended from Hercules himself.
Taught never to retreat, never to surrender.
Taught that death in the battlefield is the greatest glory he could achieve in his life.
Spartans: the finest soldiers the world has ever known."
-Melissa

TERM 2 WEEK 8
TRAINING SCHEDULE

Dear Canoeists,
This week’s training schedule’s pretty complicated, so please take note of the timings, venues and attire. Like what Stacy told the girls on Saturday, please be serious about training, especially to those who are given a chance to compete, but yet not turning up for trainings. Girls, continue training hard and don’t give up!
Women’s champ is this coming Sunday (13/05). ALL canoeists (including guys) must turn up. Guys, try to buy bananas and energy food for the girls if you can.
Competitors please wear BLUE JERSEY. JC1 girls CJC PE T-SHIRT. Non competitors CJC PE T-SHIRT as well.
Second thing- especially to JC1s- HOW MANY TIMES must I nag at you that if you do not inform me about not turning up for training because of a valid excuse, you MUST tell me personally (i.e. it must come from you)? I am not going to say this again; in future as long as I do not have any idea that you are not coming before training starts, even if you have an excuse (i.e. MC and others), I will not and cannot excuse you.
Also, you are expected to know that what is considered a valid excuse. Detention or tuition or celebrating-my-friend’s-birthday or anything like that for that matter IS NOT an excuse.

National Juniors Csnoeing Championships

Dear canoeists,
Well done for your effort in the National Juniors Canoeing Championships! Even though we did not win, please don’t give up and continue to strive to achieve even more.
On behalf of the JC2s, we would like to thank all the JC1s for getting our lunch on Saturday, and for supporting us. Especially to Gilbert and Jun Kai (Teo) for coming down on Sunday and taking the initiative to do the registration and everything else for us. THANK YOU, because it really means a lot to us that you two took charge of the administration stuff even though you were not expected to.

Another thing; there is going to be a Closed Door Asics Shoes Sale for sports CCA (only) at the School Auditorium this Wednesday (04/04) at 2PM. There will be a short talk on feet type, size etc, and after that you can try on the shoes and take your order. You will most probably receive the shoes towards the end of April and payment (cash) will be made upon delivery. This privilege is for athletes only so make use of it!

2007-02-04T22:45:00.000+08:00

TRAINING SCHEDULE TERM 1 WEEK 6

hello everyone,
here's the training schedule for this week. training on wednesday is cancelled due to cross country.

Tuesday, 06/02
Water training, MCR, 3-7PM, Blue Jersey

Thursday, 08/02
Morning Run, Grandstand, 645AM, White Orientation T-Shirt

Friday, 09/02
Water Training, MCR, meet at foyer at 230PM, White Jersey

Saturday, 10/02
Water Training, MCR, 830AM, Blue Jersey

another thing-
stop asking about why is your attendance bad and all that. blame it on yourself for not turning up regularly. you should know that most of you have not been turning up for morning run, and that accounts for your attendance, in addition to the times when you skip training. if you want to change it, do something about it !

it's the steady constant driving
to the goal for which you're striving
not the speed with which you travel,
that will make your victory sure.

it's the holding to a purpose
and never giving in;
it's the cutting down the distance
by the little that you win.

-natalie :D

Orientation Training

2007-01-12T23:06:00.001+08:00

Orientation Training.

hello errrbody!
today's training was pretty well done, i think!
thumbs and toes up to all of you for showing the JC1s what it's like to be a canoeist and the first good impression on them; especially the part when we were doing jumping jacks!
the 200pushups and pullups was pretty well done too! especially since it's been a long long time since we did a proper land training.
it's nice to hear everybody counting loudly and encouraging each other; your spirit and enthusiasm vibrated through the PAC (:

so guys, and girls, keep up the good work, and continue to lead by example! all of you are expected to play your part as seniors eh!

okay so right now it's STILL raining but!
RAIN OR SHINE, TRAINING WILL STILL GO ON.
see you tomorrow, 830AM, blue jersey!
-natalie :D

MIA

2007-01-11T21:26:00.000+08:00

MIA

hello canoeists!
sorry i've been mia for awhile and the blog's pretty much dead.
so anyway tomorrow's our orientation training for j1s.
all of us must remember what stacy said;
MUST BE disciplined! we must lead by example and whether you're enthu or not, all of us must encourage and motivate them to push on! even if you feel tired, must also pretend not to be! haha cos they are gonna be even more tired than you! never ever stop encouraging them.
i just saw the programme today and it's quite...substantial so please be prepared to yell and make them hyped up about everything, even though it's TRAINING.

and also, be prepared for very fit j1s as well. if we are running, and they are all the way in front but people are still lagging behind, we as JC2s must keep on reminding them that we train as a team, and everyone will run/train and most importantly, improve together etc etc.

YES! keep all of that in mind please thankyouverymuch!
one more MOST important point, DO NOT BE LATE unless you are a H2 history student.
all of you please gather at the grandstand in white jersey aty 3pm sharp, cos the J1s will come at 330pm. Justin will brief all of us on the entire orientation training and how it goes.

so, see you there!
-natalie :D

LAST 3 trainings for year 2006

2006-12-19T11:58:00.000+08:00

LAST 3 trainings for year 2006

hello canoeists,
heard from stacy the langkawi people are back! so just to inform yall;
tomorrow's (wed, 20/12) training starts at 830, blue jersey. i'm not sure about friday's training but saturday's definitely starts at 830, and blue jersey as well.

don't give up now! i see a slight improvement in attendance, haha. 3 more to the end of this year's training, THREE MORE TO CHRISTMAS! :D

Great changes may not happen right away, but with effort even the difficult may become easy. - Bill Blackman

lonely trainings

2006-12-17T11:20:00.000+08:00

lonely trainings

hey guys,
for those who've been coming for training consistently (thumbs up to you!), you should know that attendance has been going downslope these few trainings. i know it's tiring to go for training every other day, especially after friday's training and you realise, you've gotta go the next day again.

all of us should encourage each other, no matter how much muscle aches you have from the previous training. jiao lian also said; to improve and to catch up with the other school canoeists, you must go for training consistently! and to beat other schools, we must train as a team.

if you decide not to go for training, your friend will follow suit.
and IF you decide to GO for training, your friend will also follow suit!

Nothing is easy to the unwilling. Nothing is EASY to the unwilling.
-Thomas Fuller

Tomorrow's training (monday, 18/12) is at 11AM, white jersey. see you there!
-natalie :D

INSPIRATION

2006-12-13T21:18:00.001+08:00

INSPIRATION

Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance the next time. - Mandino

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. - Edison

today's training was great, even though half the team didn't turn up. and i thought that everyone really tried their best during the exercises after rowing.
let's not give up and strive to improve at every training!
rest well before friday. white jersey, 11 AM

-natalie :D

PUNISHMENT

2006-12-11T20:52:00.001+08:00

PUNISHMENT

1) late comers/ wrong attire
- anyone who arrives at macritchie later than 830, 11 or 3 (depending on jiaolian's schedule) will do punishment.
- 100 pushups for those who come slightly late (i.e. 5-10mins)
- 100 pushups for wrong attire
- 200 pushups for those who come at the wrong time (i.e. 11 instead of 830)
- from now on, everyone will do punishment together, regardless of who came late.

2) boats
- last person/pair who carries their boat to the pontoon has to ensure that NO boats are left behind.

- meet in school at 9AM sharp for expedition briefing and to learn how to pitch tents from the odacers! (this applies to nyaa participants as well; leaders please inform those in your grp) after that we'll go for training.

- ms tay needs to know who requires special diet for the expedition by fri; i.e. vegetarian, halal, allergies etc etc. EVERYONE please inform your group leaders (who are exco members), in case they forget to ask! can check which group you're in in the earlier post - nov12's post.

2)Canoeing Fund
- For those who haven't paid $10, please pay asap! we're thinking charging a fine for late payers, haha.
- Be prepared to pay more after the $10 because we've gotta pay for the boat repairs. so in future, don't spoil your boats!

3)Attendance for the month of NOVEMBER.

THINGS TO BRING

2006-11-26T16:12:00.000+08:00

THINGS TO BRING

Dear canoeists and nyaa participants,
this is a basic list of things to bring during the expedition.

1) 4 sets of outdoor clothes, preferably school related shirts.
2) 4 pairs of socks
3) waterproof jacket
4) toiletries
5) mosquito repellent
6) sunblock
7) waterbottle (1.5litre min)
8) torchlight
9) slippers/sandals
10) camera (optional)
11) personal medication if any
12) plastic bags/ waterproof all your belongings that you're gonna pack.
13) sleeping bag
14) CAP
15) handphone (optional)

that's all i can think of, so far. any more to add, tag on the board.
just to remind again, the expedition is from the 4th to the 7th of December.
venue: Changi Sea Sports Club - Nicoll Drive
time: 1800 hours
attire is not confirmed, but wear covered shoes there. preferably old ones that you're planning to throw away.

TRANSPORT

I checked the transport guide already, there are only 5 buses travelling to nicoll drive - 2, 29, 19, 9, and 89
Bus 29 seems quite useless to me cos it travels from tampines, then to loyang and to changi. doesn't go beyong the westest side of Singapore so i don't think any of you will be taking that.
Bus 2 starts from Eu Tong Sen Street, New Bridge Road, Hill St (Hill St Centre), Victoria St (Allson Hotel), Bugis Station, Lavender Station, Kallang Station, Aljunied Station, Eunos Station, Kembangan Station, Bedok Station, Bedok Sports Complex, Tanah Merah Station, Upp Changi Road, Upp Changi Road East, Upp Changi Road West, Loyang Way, Loyang Ave, and ends at Changi Village Bus Terminal.
so yall can take mrt to any of these stations (which i think is alot), and take bus 2 there.

bus 9 starts from Bedok Interchange, Bedok station, Bedok Rd, Upp Changi Rd, Simei Ave, Simei St 3, Simei Station, Tampines Ave 2 and 7, Loyang Ave, Telok Paku Rd, and Nicoll Drive,Airline Rd, Airport Cargo Rd, and loops back.

bus 89 starts from Hougang Central Interchange, and ends there as well. Hougang Central Interchange, Hougang Ave 10, Punggol Rd, Sengkang East Ave, Compassvale Rd, Compassvale St, TPE, Pasir Ris 12, 1, 3, Central, Loyang Ave, Telok Paku Rd, Nicoll Drive, Airline Rd, Airport Cargo Rd, and loops back.

OR! the other alternative is to meet at Pasir Ris MRT or Changi Airport MRT and take a cab with 3 other people. distance from both train stations to Changi Village Bus Terminal is about the same.
bus services to Pasir Ris MRT: 3, 6, 12, 15,17, 21, 88, 354, 358, 359, 403, 518
bus services to Changi Airport MRT: 24, 27, 36, 53, 858

that's all, please remember to inform me of the spoiled boats.
see you tomorrow at training 11AM!

-natalie :D

BOAT REPAIRS

2006-11-24T23:05:00.001+08:00

ANYTHING WRONG please inform me of the specific boat, ASAP!!!

2) for those who are free please try to follow justin and stacy to purchase the racks and all. they need all the help they can get.

Motivational poem

2006-11-11T21:27:00.000+08:00

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our dark that most frightens us.
Your playing small does not serve the world

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people don't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine as children do.
Its not just in some of us; its in everyone.

And as we let our own lights shine,
we unconsiously give other people to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.

-Nelson Mendela
