a hectic 3days have passed for me.
i had an audit test to study for.
a swim meet to go.
and to top it all of, BM trainings.

it was made hectic as one training session, the swim meet and the audit test was on the same day.
therefore, i had to find every free time i could get to study.
BM training didn't help as it made me exhausted.

anyhow, all is over and i'm glad its over.

during BM training, my trainer took note of my swim meet which was to be held later in the afternoon.
so after half time of our training, he excused me from training.
instead of relaxing and all, i took my audit notes and had a good 2-3hrs of revision time.
i really wanted to do well in the test even though it was just a mock exam.

when we arrived at Home Team NS Bukit Batok for the swim meet, all my worries for the test seemed to go away.
i had fun during the meet.
cheering and giving support to your fellow teammates in their various events was fun.
my event was 2nd last which was the 4X50m breaststroke relay.

i wasn't exactly confident as i didn't know how to pludge into the water.
but i made it up for speed :P
i can say that i helped my team to catch up with the leader and gave our team a chance to take the lead ourselves.
our first swimmer disappointed so we played the catch up game most of the time.
however, it wasn't to be a fairy tale ending as the last swimmer didn't capture the lead and we got 2nd.

in the end, every event that the team took part in, we won a medal.
we did won the men's open(breaststroke), came in 2nd for 3events(4X50breast, 4X50 freestyle and 100m freestyle) and came in 3rd for the veterans.

after the prize presentations, we had a small reception and after that all of us made our way home.
i briefly came home to wash up and prepare to go to school.

the test was alright.
though i wished i had more time to revise and hoped i didn't had such a hectic day.
but it was all good in the end and quite happy i could answer quite a bit with confidence.
