everyone is talking abt the dragon boat tragedy. im kinda numb. i dunno why.

how could they not wear life jackets? how could they compromise on safety to win?

when my sis and i went with our family friends to sentosa a few years ago, we wanted to swim across the sea to the island. but my parents didnt allow. coz the water there claimed so many lives. and my dad felt that the water was "unclean". my sis and i used to be competitive swimmers somemore. my parents still didnt allow. but we were persistent. so they kinda gave in. unwillingly. but every single adult from our family and our friends' family stood along the shore and watched us from different angles. never taking their eyes off us. coz they were so afraid. so afraid that something would happen. esp coz the current was very strong. and even as competitive swimmers we were still afraid of the water there. i wonder how the rowers could be so complacent.

i read freakonomics last time. and it said that a child is 500 times more likely to drown in the swimming pool in the house than to shoot himself with a gun found in the house.

water is the most dangerous thing in the world.

i almost died in the water twice.

once when i was 2. my ring float was too big. i slipped and sank to the bottom of the pool. and my dad was talking to his friend. luckily my sis alerted my dad. otherwise i wun be blogging today.

and the other time was when i was white water rafting in bali. my raft capsized. i didnt even know what happened. one momment i was enjoying the choppiness. next moment i saw the river floor. i didnt even feel the flipping over. all i remembered was seeing the fish faeces. it happened so fast. i didnt have time to react. i just kept breathing in the water as i was swept away by the current. my mind was blank. then someone (my dad) pulled me up from the water. what i remembered most was that i lost one side of my pink beach shoe =( and i was traumatised. i cried and cried and cried and didnt dare sit the raft anymore. i just sat on the stone by the river crying. my dad fell into the river once more after that. coz the raft was unbalanced. i think he freaked out too but he didnt dare show it. he had to put on a brave front for me.

oh and btw my arm was in a cast. coz i fractured my left wrist before gg to bali. i think the people there didnt allow me to board the raft. but i really wanted to sit it. coz i love white water rafting. did it once before. and i was wearing life jacket. i believe so. should be. my dad would insist that i wear it. coz he is someone who would never ever ever compromise on safety no matter what.
