I definitely pushed myself too hard...

Today marks the 9TH Annual Cross-Country 2011.Woke up at 6,washed up,got dressed,drank some hot chocolate,and went downstairs to wait for the car while the RI school bus stops and wait for my neighbours,as usual.

We apparently drove all around the Eastern Side of Singapore via Tampines and actually overshot the Bedok Reservoir Park.When we FINALLY got there,the stupid NPCC boys just stand there and stare like me and Jacelyn are some kind of freak(>_<)Searched for the supermarket and where everyone was but see no one so we followed some of our schoolmates and walked to the right destination.Settled down and passed my valuables to Ms Asva who said I had a lot of things:Handphone,Ipod,Wallet,Camera.

Finally met Mandy and planned to run with Adila and Jessica which I betrayed because all I wanted to do was be in the Top 120.Soon,we got seperated into our Houses.We are in the B-Division girls so we ran first after we did some warm-ups.When we (Mandy and I) ran,it felt like the journey towards the finishing line was eternity which really was cosidering that each time we look at the place where we were supposed to stop,it felt nearer but actually,we weren't.

Walking,jogging and sprinting was what I did.I didn't take any water from the guys handing them out,and each time we passed a group of students/Mr Soh and some other teachers,Mandy and I ran like mad and then of course,stopped again.

When we finally got nearer to the finishing line,I heard screams and Cameron,Oh dear Cameron,oh what the hell.Yeah,I just heard him saying:"....GO MANDY!!!RUN!!!" I didn't hear him saying anything to encourage me so I just shouted:"You say to hear,never say to me?!" But I didn't care what was his reply,I just continued running forth all I could hear was the breaking of each sentence of what the councillor said:"Lau House,Mitchell House....pins and stickers at...."I'm in Lau House so I really thought:Yes!I can be in the Top 120....I forced myself to beat the others,and that's when I almost collapsed.Mandy and I were like are we in the Top 120 because that's what we heard but we just ignored it.

Back to the collapse part.

I sprinted first because everyone was like RUN RUN RUN so I just ran....after I crossed the finishing line,I turned around to find Mandy because I was experiencing difficulties in breathing.I could hear my own whizzing sound,trying to breathe but it was so difficult.My legs felt like jelly.I though something might go seriously wrong so I cried.I just couldn't do it.The GB Head,along with another girl helped me to the First-Aid place where thay gave me 2 litres of oxygen and some water and took my pulse.Ms Quek was ther too.I was just breathless.(That's why this post is called Breathless:I Can't Breathe) I asked Ms Quek to check in on Mandy because she didn't look okay.

When I was feeling much better,Ms Quek asked me to tell my Mum about it which she (Mum) was shocked and worried.After that,Mandy and I went back to the Lau House seating area and then look for Kai Wen.Told her what happened and she was shocked like the rest.Told her I wanted to be in the Top 120 category that's why I forced myself to run all the way.I didn't expect it to be so bad than the other times I experienced the same thing.Min Qi and the rest were there too and they were like,don't cry,its just a pin.They even offered to give theirs to me.Mr Ng thinks that its because I'm probably more worthy that's why they should give it to me (>_<)
I'm not emo,I just felt dissappointed in myself that I didnt make it to the Top 120.But there's always next year...right?

Post of pictures will be laterrrrr.See you tonight! (:
