Whole Lotta Love-Led Zeppelin

i'm having this excruciating pain on my back,real hurt all due to two consecutive days of dragon boat training at Kallang river.even the mefenamic acid pills that i swallowed doesn't really help but thank God i can walk iwhout the assistance of a stick,NOT!

the weather is good today,and yesterday as well,and crowds of cheerful paddlers added colour to the lovely morning;from the shack all the way to the river bank,i felt however like i'm in some foreign shores,coz largely,the crowd made of different kind of people haliling from various countries,and all looked happy and all looked real fit.

and all were there for the same intention-to row!and all we thought rowing was easy until we rocked the still waters,it was madly tiring.we rowed in unison all the way close to marina barrage and made a turn,rowed to indoor stadium and back to where we started.in between we stopped for stretching and further instructions by our coach,a former dragon boat national team player.

the river was dark and murky and God knows what lay underneath as we paddled & perfecting our breathing,movement and strokes.and most importantly we need to row as a team and all gotta be together in a single rhythm.

now i'm in pain but i felt good,i got a bit darker but that's alright and already i'm showing signs of interest in this newfound love,even the crew are friendly and i'm looking forward to the next session,oh boy i'm gonna miss next weekend's training,but there'll be more,i promise!
