was it luck or training not enough ?

nowcast: disappointed

heart was like beating faster and faster, drew lots, heat one number 6, SLSS surfboard no. 6 missing, leaving me no choice but to use NUS surf board, strong currents/ waves, so high that you have trouble looking for the buoy, unlike SLSS board this board keep taking in water from the front.. really have much trouble propelling it forward, everyones turning at the same point and i got stuck, finally manage to catch up a 5th placing, someone capsized right infront of me, leaving me stucking there ... rotten luck, placing got all the way back. in my mind i was only thinking of giving up, where my body is still trying so hard... pull pull pull and manage to get back to 5th position again... after the last turning point, 6th placing was so close to me, and damn me, off position towards the finishing pole, shift shift shift and there goes my 5th placing ... the hope to final... completed the heat with 6 position, which is just 1 more position inorder to get into final .. lot number 6, with position no. 6, if only i got SLSS number 6 board too ... Was it luck ? or training not enough ? or was it the problem with stress ? something i trained so hard for .. ya you are right, L = Loser (i know u don mean it but ..) ... I cant even do well in my pet event ..

Andy and i manage to get into finals for board rescue, hope that luck will be on our side, hope he dont swim off position again, jiayou.

There were alot of people getting into finals, rachel (board race), KT, PYK and PL (board paddling), WS and Peg (board rescue), chris and peg torpedo tude rescue, Jin and Marv (ironman /woman), woman's taplin... good job guys ..
