Everything that I am not, made me everything that I am.

Kayaking 2 Star Day 2

Today do Eskimo Bow Rescue. Never felt so distressed in my whole life. Basically, after you capsize, you hold your breath underwater, wave for help, wait till it comes, and use the bow of the rescuer's boat to flip yourself up. The fact that you can't see makes it scarier. The water is awful.

I did something extremely careless today. Its not related to kayaking. I also said something extremely tactless. I duno how to say sorry for the second one. I should've been more sensitive. A bit like how I accidentally reminded Jeremy Ong about Moot Parliament (he didn't get in). Twice actually. I'm really really sorry, I just duno how to say it to the people that I hurt.

Lee Zheng figured out that I was dragged along for this. He told me something along the lines of, since you are here already, might as well do it well. I'll take that as encouragement.

It rained again. This time it was freezing cold. Not fun at all. 

While waiting for the rain to stop, we were talking with Michal about Daniel Lim. So much, until Lee Zheng said "Can you stop talking about Daniel Lim?" It was really interesting. Like this conversation that Michal and Daniel had during 1 Star Kayaking:

Michal: Hi Daniel! :)
Daniel ignores
Michal: Why I say hi you never say hi? Its very rude you know?
Daniel: Hi (sarcastic)

We arrived at the conclusion that Daniel is too tactless, and too direct.

Walking back to the MRT, me and Lee Zheng were talking about what we wanted to do with our life, he wanted to be an engineer, I wanted to do biotechnology. I guess we're very different people. Its just that I feel biotechnology is where I can make a difference.

Dinner out with family, at this place called Jack's Place. It was yummy.

As I lied down in bed that night, I thought about my whole life and everything that has happened to me. And I realized I should never look back on my mistakes, just not repeat them again, that's all. 

Knowledge is a degree which incorporates life's curriculum.
