Yays! Germany won with a score of 3-1! :)All the goals were concentrated in the second half, after the 56th minute. Schweinsteiger scored 2 goals and there was a own goal by Petit for Germany. A late cross nearing the finishing minutes by Figo to Gomes scored a consolation goal for Portugal. Portugal played well in this match, but unluckily for them, Kahn's a good goalkeeper and managed to save all but one ball from going into the net. Congrates to the hosting country! *claps* They've worked hard. Cheers to them.The host country always manages to play well don't they? And I'm really amazed by the technology advancement today. Within half an hour of the match, the tv crews can come up with a nice video of the nice saves, goals and impactful images of the match. It was a good product.Hmm. Updates on the happenings in the past week!ODAC went for the 2 star kayaking course during the long youth holiday break. On the last day of the course, we had our first ever sea expedition, kayaking from CSSC to loyang, covering a total distance of 8km. And the dancer always spun. It's my first time kayaking such a long distance..fun fun! There were many memorable moments during the 3 days we spent together..us realising that there's actually a nearer bus stop which goes to CCSC, me capizing twice within 10 minutes due to the failure in doing my low brace turn, wynee's drinking water incident, the lunch at loyang beach, mr ong's lollipops for us, kayaking in a kayak which is entirely full of water without the spray cover on, the bus rides back to tampines, the dinners together, 'smart' jingxin who always never fails to entertain us (what am I thinking about now? haha)...
so we chose to take our grp pic outside the club this time round and in the middle of the road. hee.After the kayaking course, I fell sick. I vomited out monday's dinner when I woke up on tueday. It tasted like tuna...I had diarrhoea throughout that day.Got food poisoning I supposed. My stomach hurt during lessons and I kept dozing off. So during the long lunch break, I went off to see the doctor and came back to school again for lessons after that. PE ended at 6.15pm, but I left school at 8.00pm cos of the discussion of the proposal for the interhouse sport climbing competition. And then I vomited again on the way home! Immediately I alighted from the bus which I took with meiying and vincent at the amk bus stop, I vomited into the drain. Pretty disgusting for the onlookers I supposed. Couldn't help it though. And I actually didn't eat anything much that day, just a piece of bread and a pao.As usual on wednesday, there was odac. We had physical training in preparation for the nus race.And so we covered 10 rounds, did pumpings, dips, step ups...Personally, I felt it wasn't a tough training. BUT, due to the fact that we haven't trained for a long time and that I was sick, it was pretty draining. After the training, we had to prepare the rock wall for the sport climbing competition.Thursday was a holiday for AJCians to make up for the polling day. Again, in preparation for the nus race, we had training. And as it was raining, we could use the tracks at bishan stadium. So we went to the gym to train. I think it's more productive training in gym, psychological effect maybe? It felt great after a workout there. We saw a senior from the 18th comm too..later on, we went macs. meiying, wynee, xiang feng and I went to jia wen's house after that to complete our IVLE assignments. And after that, I went to meet up with my pw group back at macs again. Fabian's group was also there.I think i'm too gullible! I actually believed that yongbiao had a N99 phone, no thanks to weide and kah ho. Bleh. Then on friday, school ended early for everyone. The teachers had to attend the MOE excel fair. It didn't affect me much, since school already ends early for me on friday. There was training again. This time, we went swimming..did 22 laps in the pool. We went back to school to continue with our preparation for the sport climbing competition after that. There was a need to re-do the markings on the wall since it rained on thursday.Yesterday was the interhouse sport climbing competition.On the whole, it went well. We didn't screw anything up. I had been worried on friday night whether or not things would go smoothly. After all, the proposal had been done in a rush only on thurday evening. I only spent 6 hours doing it and was afraid that I might have left things out. But things turned out well in the end. As always, there's room for improvement. It slipped our minds that the school only opens at 0800 on saturdays. So when we met up at 0645h, we had to wait outside the gate. Things got delayed abit there. Then it also took some time for the next team to get ready too since there was only 4 helmets for the participants to go round. Luckily, there wasn't alot of teams which participated so we still managed to end the competition early and could have a climbing session. I hearby announce that jia chang is a monkey of our batch. haha. He climbs super fast!! 43s to complete a climb! madness. And after the climb, we went toa poyah to have lunch and then to east coast for cycling. It was supposedly a training but we were did at a leisurely pace..went home after that and slept!
