Time and Venue

For competitors in the morning aka all the individuals, meet at 8 at Bedok MRT or by 8.15 at Bedok Sports Hall. If you're meeting at the MRT, do not be late, it's a long complicated walk to the destination.

For the rest, meet at the Sports Hall BY 9.00am for the taking of the Taekwondo Pledge. You should be able to find us by the hctkd banners hung up.

We'll be staying there all the way till 7 odd.

K guys, this is the last stretch. As Celest said today: it's far too late to be concentrating on each individual small detail now; rather, rely on your muscle memory and remember to focus. Block out everyone who doesn't matter and just do the pattern to the best of your ability. We've trained hard and come this far; Celest has faith in us, let us likewise have faith in ourselves and go there and kick butt :D

SLEEP EARLY TONIGHT, DRINK MANY MANY WATERS


Love, Chris.

Two things, one for the pattern teams and the other for the nominees:

1. Pattern teams:

a. Mirror room will be available at the following days, time and location. We thank Dr Siva mightily. Please settle with your teams/ pairs/ self and get down there; using the mirror seriously helps.

b. For this week, Celest will be coming down from 1.30 onwards tomorrow (Wed) and 3.30 onwards on Friday. Do come if you wish to train/ aren’t running for exco (esp J2s who were discriminated against today !!1)

2. Exco nominees, please resubmit your exco forms after the event on Friday, and by Sunday latest. This is not due to our losing the forms or anything like that but more because we feel that 1. the initial exco form submission gave you all a rough idea of what you would like to run for but 2. now that some time has passed, perhaps you guys have thought more deeply about the different roles and their functions, as well as where you can best serve. Think it over and submit by Sunday should you want to resubmit, if not, the forms stand as initially submitted.

Role of Pattern AIs:

1. Liasing with you-peoples to fix dates between now and 18^th May,
2. where they come down and guide/ check on pattern/ prevent committing of suicide
3. Standardization of pattern within the belt (do not worry we do not discriminate)

Role of you-peoples:

1. Plan your schedule (and jolly well make sure you can make it!)
2. Organize extra trainings where your AIs aren’t around – so that you can impress them when you next see them (we are stingy with our Good Going!s)
3. Actively seek help from your AIs (if they are busy after school, and you-peoples are nice, we can do mornings. 7am. Seriously.)

Hi guys I'm not in the pink of health as of this moment but I will totally be down tomorrow, with poms poms, if any of you care to get me some.

Anyway, competition day details:

930am: Dismissal from lesson, Meet upstairs and train
1030am: Breakfast (is mandatory)
11am: We Get Moving, I Will Update You Re How We Get There
12nn: Reach NTU, hopefully. Registration, Pattern teams warmup and revise

On another note, I would say it's been great to see the dedication and drive of my comrades this past week (just that, I haven't been there) but I have been hearing about the commitment and drive and late hours - and I am supremely proud of all of us. Just one day more to go, be calm and relaxed and.. I suppose "enjoy yourself on the mats" is too much to ask for, but show them what we can do should be apt.

MUCH LOVE, I'll see you guys tomorrow, please don't hug my tummy.
