One of my favorite pastimes these days is to watch the Olympics.well..nothing to do at home...and somemore its everywhere!!TV-mobile is showing it too... However, I realised that many people may not know what some sports are about or how they are played, so I will do you this huge favor and explain every sport separately.
Aquatics
The Aquatics consist of four sports. The first is swimming, which dates all the way back to ancient Greece, where they liked to throw kids in the sea and watch them try to outswim the sharks. The fastest child with a head got the gold medal. It is still almost the same today, but without the sharks. The second sport is water polo, where athletes struggle not to drown, and if they happen to score while trying to catch the ball (which floats and therefore provides a means of salvation), they win. If they drown, they lose. Then there is diving, where they throw you off a cliff and you have to spin and spin and spin and spin aimlessly and hope you don't land in the water with your belly, because you're dead. Then there is synchronised swimming, which is the most useful sport in real life of the four. There are two athletes who, while falling, have to watch each other and spin simultaneously. The athletes who look the least, win.
Archery
Most of you already know archery, it is the sport in which you get a ridiculously oversized bow which has a computer, a TV and a DVD player mounted on it, and you try to shoot arrows at the target while you are watching a movie on the DVD. Ancient Greeks used to have their normal bows which were only a stick with a piece of thread tied to it, and they had to shoot slaves in the eye to win.
Athletics
Athletics are sports in which you run (or walk) like hell various distances, ranging from 100m (that's like 10 ft for you americans) to 40 km (that's 30 ft for you americans) and maybe jump a bit too.
Badminton
Badminton is gay as hell, there are two people who toss a feather (called a shuttlecock) to each other. If neither of them wants it, why don't they just give it to the judges and go drink a beer? Anyway, nobody knows the point of this sport, and I don't think you get any medals for it.
Baseball
There is no hope for anyone to understand this sport. Only Americans pretend to understand it because they don't want to look stupid because they invented it and how lame would that be if even the inventor cannot understand their own sport? So out of embarrasment they watch it all day long although even the players don't know what's going on. From what I gather though, someone throws a ball to someone else, and he hits it on the head with a bat and runs around like crazy. If the ball goes to the viewers and hits someone, the team scores. It is a particularly violent sport and many a viewer has died from it.
Basketball
You all know basketball, it's like when your boss at work gives you a document for you to sign and whatever and you say "eat this" and roll it up into a ball and you throw it at the bin and you miss, only these people do it with a ball and get paid for that. So yeah, I guess you lose there.
Boxing
Kick the shit out of people. Last person alive wins.
Canoeing
You get in a small boat called a canoe and try not to get hit on the head from some poles sticking out of the ceiling while floating around trying not to drown.
Cycling
You get on your bike and run in circles. When you realise you aren't going anywhere you stop, and the fastest person to realise that wins.
Equestrian
Equestrian means "something to do with horses" and so you understand that you get on a horse and make it do crap like jump around and look happy and roll over. If the horse is in heat you lose, because its *** knocks over all the wooden things when it jumps over them.
Fencing
Fencing is a wussy sport where you try to stab each other, only the swords don't work and you have flashing lights on your helmet and guns aren't even allowed, so noone ever dies. That sucks.
Football
Football is the best sport ever (not that crap Americans call football, that's just team boxing with a ball thrown in for distraction) because Greece is European Champion 2004.What is the world coming to??!?!hahaha...
Gymnastics
Gymnastics is where you jump around and hang from stuff.The one who jumps around the most wins.
Handball
Handball is like football only it's played with the hands, hence the name.And no its not a foul..
Hockey
Hockey is gay, it's like football but you have sticks and the ball is so small you can't even see it.And wheres the ice???hee..
Judo
Judo is the art of laying someone on their back. Its pretty comical seeing them..
Modern Pentathlon
No idea what this is, but from the name I will assume that they do five things at once, maybe like sing and spin plates on their noses or something.
Rowing
Rowing is, as the nursery rhyme says, where you row your boat gently down the stream, only not so gently.Coz life is never a dream..
Sailing
Sailing is great.You get on your yacht and you try to finish faster than the others. A sport for rich people only, obviously.
Shooting
Shooting is more or less known, you get a gun and shoot pigeons. The more you shoot the better it is, and sometimes you can eat some if you get lucky and they fall near you.
Softball
Seriously, what is this crap. Who has ever heard of softball? I saw a picture once and there are people with bats in the field, kind of like baseball, and also they both end in -ball. Other than that, all the Greek players have American names, so it can't be very good. Probably a fake sport.
Table Tennis
This is what Forrest Gump (god that movie sucked) played, only without the special effects, these guys actually use a ball. It's like tennis on a small scale, invented for people who are too lazy to walk three meters across the field to hit the ball. It's always funny to watch asians play it, because they make these funny noises whenever they hit the ball, or maybe they are talking.a pity tat singapore lost..=(
Taekwondo
Taekwondo is another beat-em-up sport where you try to kick the shit out of people. I have not seen it yet but I think it hasn't begun yet. I will keep you posted.
Tennis
Tennis is great because the Lena Daniilidou is hot. It is mildly entertaining because nobody wants the ball here either but instead of just letting it pass, they hit it and send it towards the other player, so it's mostly a game of vengeance.
Triathlon
Like the pentathlon, but they do three things at a time instead of five. Easier.
Volleyball
Volleyball is great, and beach volley even more so. The chicks of beach volley all have great bodies, and even if their faces look like shit they're wearing sunglasses so huge that you can't see their face at all. People who can't afford cable watch beach volley to get off. Perverts.hee..
Weightlifting
You get in there, lift two huge rubbish trash can on both sides.Watch out for those nasty chicks.They looked scary..=p
Wrestling
Wrestling is like Judo, but more Greek. You still try to lay people on their backs but the names of the moves are not Japanese and the athletes are shorter and wear those ridiculous uniforms.
That's it for today, I hope you have a much better understanding of all the Olympic Sports now. And remember!!!!!Pay for our Games, drink Coca-Cola. =p
it has to be me....

i'm sure most of us caught the bronze medal match between li jia wei(SG) and kim Kyung-ah(or smth like tat)from South korea this evening...and if u didn't...at least supported her in one way or another...the match did took some breath away from me..seeing how South Korean player slice the ball over unto the other side of the net,and how ah wei wld counter back with her bat....every moment was as exicting...ah wei was much in a agressive mode,seeking every chance to finish of each rally while the South Korean played in a low profiled manner...well,in the end..singapore didn't make it...losing 3-4...but we all gotta agree she played well...40 years since a medal in the olympics...hmm.. but i have faith in Singapore...a medal or two during Beijing 2008 shouldn't be a problem..to all those will participated in the Athens 04..well done..you've made us proud..=p

a little update on my story..
went to Bukit Timah alone two days back with my bike as shown above...one word..song!!!! haha...
then yesterday...had to report back to school for a trip to Jurong Port and Keepel FELS....an eye opener i shld say...especially at Keepel FELS...everything was like so big and huge..as compare to those i see in the books..all things seems to be blown into a explosive scale...and there'll be these couple of jack-ups(those oil rigs;strutures that stand alone at the sea ya??)tat are as tall as the sky...hehe...its really interesting to see how things work there...cool...haha...
after the trip,i make my way to my firend's house on his motorbike to get some stuff for the BBQ later on that nite...the numbers were quite small...with only abt 13 of us...the BBq was alrite...but wasn't the best...i think it all boils down to whu u r with...i'm someone who dun like to interact when i dun have to...which kinda explains why i keep a limited circle of frends...so there wasn't much toking done by me...i did open my mouth,that is when i eat..haha!!!so after i've filled my tummy...i went to the beach and slept and the patch of grass..a bit itchy...but it just feels good to feel the sea breeze smacking you face...nice and soft...ha...sadly,it was a cloudy day..no stars to see...then comes these mixture feelings that made me think alot...
decided to go back early since i'm getting nothing out of it...when i reached Jurong,it started to rain heavily...ZzzZZ..so went 7-11 to get some donuts...u noe la..BBQ..hard to be full one..hee..dun noe why..but i like the donuts at 7-11 especially the one with the fudge one..=p...when i finished the donuts,the rain stopped..juz nice..went ack home..had a good bath and ZZzZZzZ lo...
hmm...have been sleeping until very late this week..if i have nothing on for the morning..i wld sleep all the way till 12...hehe...well..i wun have the chance to do so when the sch term is back...so its now or never!!hehe...
imagine this....there u are,standing near the railings of Esplanade.amongest the thousands that were there to grace that moment they were waiting for....packed like a sardine can,you are feel the warm and stinky atmosphere all round u. the only fresh air u could get is to look up and breathe.your baldder is on the verge of explosion; probably becoz of the gallons of water u have been drinking becoz of the unforgiving weather... but you can't get out from the crowd...
U wished u haven't been there in the first place...u begin to picture yourself on the sofa at home....air-conditioned...sweat-free...and most importantly...bladder problem-free!!!as u begin to curse and swear...and at the same time wondering when will the thing finally start,you was stunned by a loud and bright brust of tremendous lighting...u looked up in the sky....u were greeted by these beautiful fireworks..
my jaws literally remained dropped for the next 15mins. as i watched the fireworks danced gracefully in the nite sky....awsome....simply awsome...that probably was the most beautiful thing i saw in my life...
a momnet they were brusting into clusters of shiny stars...the next they flicker down the sea and disappear....a pharse flashed past my head:"beautiful things dun last"...how ture...the moment....the rite moment...juz that short short moment...and after that..the rest would be up to your memory...sieze the moment,but dun dwell in it...remember that moment,but dun hope for it again.
two times in a row this year....why is this happening to me???!?!?!?!! again!!!!! my e-mail account...kena hacked...can't sign into my msn...it always had to be me...me....sobz...u noe how hard is it to gather all those contacts back....ZZzzZZz... need your help guys...pass my aadd around..the further the better...i'm juz so sad now...in a way..messenger was my main tunnel of communicating....now...argh!!!!!i feel so empty now..hahaha....like i've got nth left...lol...
Bactrack a bit....
yesterday was National Day...well...decided to cycle down to Kallang to catch some fireworks actions....when we reached there..that place was so damm crowded....cars won't budged...ppl won't move...luckily our bikes were quite mobile..hehe..the fireworks were great..a pity we didn't hd our camera with us...but after i reached home..i was so tired tat i ALMOST didn't wanna wake up this morning...lesson at eight lei!!!but aywy..i made it in time...hee..
all the rest can go fly kite..later kena lightning strike.....KkkKKkkKKKkKKkk...the tune of that cheer still rings in my head even after the BB Primiers Orientation camp...
unexpectingly..The camp turned out great...which wasn't what i have expected...like all camps..we were ask to make a flag and our group name had to start wth the letter 'K'...so somewhere along the line K cube came out..which means KoKoKrunch...which was quite farni...add laughter to that...our group slogan was "got milk???" didn't noe here it came from but sounds cool...for the next few days...it was activities and more activities...basically it was a slack camp...no changing parade...no 2359...no bunk inspection...haha!!!slack all the way man...hehehe..

"when the night,has come..."
all the while singing with our trembling voice...hahaha..
thus,for the past few "mass session",we would meet up outside the shaft to "enjoy" ourseleves...haha..
and then came the last nite where we had to perform a skit...so we came up with a puppet show...with my head and a few others sticking out and another guy's hands as "my" hand and my hand as "my" legs...we didn't really prepared for that skit but in the end we won the contest!!!!!woah!!!!
