the journey of youth olympic.

Thursday, August 26, 2010 12:30 AM

i must admit that i'm wrong, complaining about how bad volunteering in YOG can be.
i gotta thank dad for giving me the "I LOVE SINGAPORE! I LOVE YOG!" mindset.
and i tink by further motivating me, he even sacrifice his sleep for two saturdays to send me to Bishan Stadium. Not forgetting mummy, who had a hard time waking me up!

training wasn't that clear i gotta say. but afterall everything went pretty smoothly, with everyone's cooperation.
At first, honestly, i have fears of commiting mistakes. but.. dint really encounter any.
so, goodjob rina! haha! and of course the other volunteers! good job people! :D

i am thankful for this experience.
i've met many new friends. (though they're hi andbye. but they're nice friendly people!)
gained a deeper understanding of how Olympic events run, the tools for their scoring system.
and many many things.

though duty is around 1 hour plus, it's kinda tiring after the end of the event.
just imagine that 1 hour emo ride home. ):
how nice it would be to have that WOOD BLOCK that i can rest on.
but well, i'm an independent girl uh! :D

i get to record the scores for high-jump (2 shift), shot put, javelin and hammer.
though watching the competiton live is awesome, it may be tiring too. tiring in the sense of looking at people's disappointment.

i must say that i never like competitions.
its sad to witness competition. (to-me)
because its kinda mixed feelings.
it is super happy to see those who won.
it is terribly upsetting to see how hard they tried, and they do not achieve what they deserved.
it's reality lah. and. life.
no matter how i like it or not, we still need to face it.
arghs~

also, during the recording of scores, we need to be super focus and alert.
there may be other events happening at the same time. so the focus cannot be drifted away!
i must admit, i got drifted away some time. but of course i get back to track.

and, i needa stop whining on how stress my life is.
how stress poly work load is.
because, i think i have no right to complain.
looking at the atheletes, they are way more stressful than us.
so, there're loads of things to learn from them!
i admire their fighting spirit seriously.

anyway, i shall let the pictures take over.
as, its really hard to express how i felt over these great days.
it's someting new and.. WOW.




Mr KP -- the lao gong gong! :D
hees! he's the one who taught us how to record the score.
he's a funny guy and easy to get along with!
there's once when i was stretching, he came massaging my shoulder.
haha. frightened me.
another time, i was kinda tired. so wasn't really smiling.
and he came pulling his own cheek and ask me to smile.
he never fails to praise me.
last day, he almost killed me! wahaha.
he moved the chair away and i nearly sat down.
but that wasnt intentionally lah.
he's a awesome guys!
great time meeting him! :D
i supar love the pictureee!
