There wasn't any photos for day 1 and 2, meaning the C div. :(

Yay, inter-schools is finally over! We all trained so hard for it, yes? So give ourselves a good well-deserved break and study hard for midyears everyone!

Then its time to train hard for next year's inter-schools. Like what Mrs Sidhu always say, we don't only start training for inter-schools a few months before it, we train for the next inter-schools after the current one is over. :)

So good luck juniors, train hard for next year! The sec4s will come back and support you guys in any way possible, I hope. Hahaha.

FIGHTING! (you know, "FIGHTING!". Koreans always say that. Haha)

p.s. My gosh, my skin is peeling. Never gotten so tan to the point that my skin could peel before!! HAHAHA.

Announcement(s)!

PLEASE PAY 10BUCKS TO GWEN AND MARILYN
(Gwen- uppersec, Marilyn- lowersec) for the sailing fund and also for the museli bars for the past races! Remember to get us to note down your names and stuff if you've paid.

And also, please note:
SAILING CAMP, APRIL 3RD-5TH

Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Remember to bring along your homework to do if you have assignments from your teachers.

SAILING CAMP TEE
Most of the sailors decided during Monday's PT that they want a sailing camp tee, even if it IS pretty last minute. Please give me some suggestions if you have any. (Note: NO pink, white, black as colors)

Seniors suggested that they wanted to make a jacket and jersey too, but its optional because we have to pay for the camp tee ourselves.. would be kinda costly if we wanted to make all 3, so therefore left optional.

Sailors on the Rocks at Krabi, Thailand.

For the first time in MF Sailing history the sailors took a flight over to fabulous Thailand for the year end camp. While the timing was not that fabulous with the sudden closure of the airport in Bangkok raising some concerns among the parents and the teachers if our airport and flight back from Phuket will be affected, the trip in itself was definitely an eye-opener for us all. Having spent most of our lives looking at books and PSPs, we finally have a chance to kayak through valleys and pristine mangroves, chase crabs on the beaches, feed fishes and swim with them, climb cliffs and caves finally throw ourselves off the cliffs without dying! And we make lots of new friends and pick up some new Thai phrases along the way too. Sanuk mah!
It was fun, it was tough (tons of mossies and no hot shower!!!), it was different and it forced us to face our fears. It could be a once in a lifetime experience for some, or the beginning of a life of more adventures to come. Either way it was memorable.

Days 1 and 2 morning, at Koh Yao Noi

Days 2 and 3- Talane Village and Krabi

Day 4- Krabi

2008-10-06T00:25:00.004+08:00

Heyho,

Just a message to all: jiayou and work hard for the EOYs and O's everyone!
Sec4s, good luck good luck! :):):)

(I've mugged till my eyebags are black. Ugh!)

And to a certain dearest someone from 3A,
Please know that the Mayflower sailors are behind you ALL THE WAY! Please cheer up, if you need someone to talk to, we'll be there for you bro.

See you in school soon. :)

- Gwen.

Nationals 2007- C division

2007-07-04T22:31:00.000+08:00

Some cried, some overconfident, some elated and others disappointed.. Nontheless, if you have done your best and nothing but your best, whatever the results may be, we'll still be happy. It's been a good exposure for all the sailors... Just remember you'll be back again. Stronger and better, definitely with lots of hard work and discipline. Continue to remember the lessons learnt this year and tell yourself, "I'll be back!!!"
