The Dragon is the greatest in the Chinese zodiac

we're not racing in rabbit boats now are we?

I am an athlete. I have found my sport and its got to be the most awesome one out there; Dragon Boat Racing. I had myself very worried for years, my phobia of balls flying at me kept me from pursuing most sports. i mean who wants to have hard balls flying ridiculously fast toward their face? I have finally found my place in a long chinese dragon-shaped boat, screaming commands at the top of my lungs and beating a drum. Who would have thought that i'd be so lucky and get to have this much fun? it should be illegal its so great. Yesterday was one of the most awesome days of my life, and i'm on this natural high that i dont think will ever completely leave me, cuz i'm sure that anytime i think back on the past two days, smiles will keep creeping on my face. Everyone was amazing, i never felt so much team spirit, and it was beautiful watching everyone from where i stood. Beating and screaming, i heard everyone shouting in unison, rowing in sync, and the adrenaline and strength was so powerful i could smell it, taste it, hear it, see it, and touch it. All five senses rose to this level of high intensity, it was unbelievable. it was so fun, i could squeal with giddiness.

Paddle high five! that was so cute, you have no idea.

Haha, I never say that. Act like I didn't.

I said, "I see it, too, Rohini. I see it, too." ;)

Hey, I like having balls zoom around. It's quite enjoyable, you know. But there is nothing like the thrill of rowing, surprisingly.

We were awesome, and I think we had the most team spirit there.

Hey, I recently added a news widget from www.widgetmate.com to my blog. It shows the latest news, and just took a copy and paste to implement. Might interest you too.
