Blushed Moment

i was readin Chloe's blog about her Redang trip, of course swimming is involved. then i thought of my visit to my cousin's place near Tropicana... *Harp playing at the background*

it was a Sunday, mum n i together with my 3rd aunt n uncle went to my cousin CT's apartment, which spotted a huge NEW swimming pool on the 3rd floor (outdoor, unfortunately). mum started to tell stories about how good i was at swimming (er, not quite true, i still drink pool water once in a while), n back when we were stayin in Kuching, my coach was the Sarawak state swimming coach n how he said i was such a good swimmer. then mum went on to say that if we were still staying in Kuching, i'd probably be one of the state swimmers yadi yada yadaa.. gosh, i felt my face turning red! 1st of all, i have really bad stamina, i can't run at all, there was once in the school cross-country run i nearly fainted at the end of the race. i sweated all over n i could squeeze sweat out of my hankie. yes, yuck. but it's true, it happened. then, there's this genetic thingy dat kinda put me in the "short" category, or "petite", however u wanna put it. have u seen any state swimmers being short? n stubby? with big b*g boobs? (sounds so vulgar) u get the drift, i don't feel athletic, i don't look athletic (even tho there were a few times ppl asked me if i was, weird). perhaps it's becoz of my big calf, but then again, i blame it on genes.

anyway, back to the topic. i was red all over, yes. i could see my aunts n uncles lookin amazed with my "talent" while my cousin CT has a smirk on his face. hmph! oh, my couz CT is a nerdily-cute kind of guy. not tall, not fair, not dark, specs, curly hair, intelligent n charming.. not to mention humorous, quirky n a real gentlemen. scored 10As for his SPM, headhunted while still in uni. wat more could a girl ask for? i could set up some dates for anyone interested. :P provided dat he's not out of town AND nobody tells him dat i'm introducing girls to him, keke. well, adios. back to work.

how was the place?

anywayz...you can't run not because you have low stamina..it's because you DON'T run that's y you have low stamina! :P

and yea..swimmers don have to be tall.. you just need strong muscles and hopefully a streamlined physic..and determination..and patience..and discipline and.....
