Diving the way

Sore bottoms,muscle aches and gigantic bruises are what you get from executing "perfect" dives(almost 70 times)-with the gear fully padded on you. More than 5kg of plastic encased around you,restricting your movements to no end,yet you still have to use every ounce of your energy to push yourself off at the right angle and height and distance. Add the extra whack run in the morning,and extremly sore muscles from training the same dives for 6 hours non-stop the day before,and you get one VERY SHAG person.

But...It's all in the name of improving,and I will not complain. Just grit my teeth and go with the trainings given,no matter how much I feel like just breaking down and giving up. No amount of physical resistance can beat the will of my mind. As the Nike slogans scream,"Just Do It".

May God bless me.

Tis' the season to be jolly..

Merry merry Christmas! May God bless you forever with His beautiful heart!

Christmas never fails to work its magic on me every year,first with that warm,fuzzy feeling of love and goodwill towards all men,then its the frenzied shopping and card-writing and gift-wrapping for friends and loved ones. And there is the intrinsic happiness in genuinely spreading the Love of God. *smiles*
