♥ #21,JULY;O'Nine - B.A.C Athletics Carnival!
Running, jumping, throwing/chucking and cheering/screaming, such a nice whether for a special sporting events like this. Yes, today was our school’s athletics carnival. And yes I did participate in most of the events instead of just sitting there and did almost like the girls who were playing with my camera until it died.
There were definitely more participants this year (great job, everyone =D) which made it easier for me. Thanks to Stephanie I did not become the ‘only’ last place in each event. I did –takes big breath in-… 100m, 200m, 400m, discus, shot-put, javelin and long jump. Stephanie did everything with me (thank goodness) and I was pretty bad at almost everything. Chao was going to do everything but he ended up changing his mind and didn’t do high jump (the one I was looking forward the most), 200m and 400m. Adrian was going to do everything but you know, small accidents happen. He pulled his leg muscles in high jump and missed out on the 1500m and 400m which I thought he probably has a pretty good chance of winning. Of course, there were also a dozen of people who like to wag on this day and yes I am going to name because they should feel ashamed of themselves… Michelle (Adrian was disappointed), Darleen (yeah), Selina (hmm), Wendy (mm), Laura (OMG), Robert (WTF?!) and a handful of others. Now to think about it, I can’t really point my finger at others since I did wag last year as well (but that was last year!).
Anyway, now let’s talk about how I went in each event (in details). As I was saying, I came last in almost everything but at least I wasn’t alone~!
First up was the 100 metre sprint. I jogged it… came last!
Second, javelin. I came pretty much among the last 3… fail!
Third, 200 metres sprint. For some reason I’ve decided do bolt but didn’t end up getting a place anyway… came 4th!
Forth, discus. I almost killed someone because I chucked the disk in the wrong direction… -sigh-
Fifth, 400m run. I did absolutely crap in that one… epic fail!
Next, long jump. As expected, I fouled and got my shoes filled with sand and I almost tripped while I was running.
Last, shot-put/throwing some heavy ball. I almost dislocated my shoulder and while others did better in their 2nd and 3rd attempt than their 1st, I did worse… sport is really not my thing~!
So yeah, I failed everything on the overall base and was screaming ‘GO GREEN’ most of the time. Well, the point is, we won anyway while gold and red fought hard for the 2nd place. Chao went in the 1500m and the relay. Adrian and I were screaming our lungs out from the top row everything time Chao comes around when he did the 1500. The green boys did a little war cry just before the relay and I have to admit it kind of reminded me of the New Zealand Hakka (not that it’s bad) and it was a bit… strange! Ph by the way, the photo below is the photo that was taken by the girls who killed the battery of my camera so I didn’t get to take some photo myself… -sigh-
<<< Sorry about the block out... Just in case if the person doesn't want her photo on my page, at least people won't know who it is :P
