WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!>

Today is our final battle. All of us were very nervous and anxious of the competition. We boarded the coach with all the things and realised that we lacked of a broadsword for competition on the way to Toa Payoh Sports Hall. Yong Chao was struggling to ask CCHMS to bring along the sword; he was standing up, looking quite nervous.
When we had reached our destination, we sat at the area behind the chief judge and that was quite a good place for us to observe the competition. At first, everybody was afraid of testing the competition ground (carpet) until a courageous group entered the area and started practising. This was when everybody started to test the carpet and crowded like sardines. We (VJC and CCHMS) were like waiting for the crowd to get lesser then we went to test the ground.
After testing of grounds was prohibited, we had our lunch (char siew rice and 100-plus). We supported CCHMS people and practised for our events when there's none of the competitor was our friend.
B-Boys attain 2 silvers; lost to Ping Yi Secondary School. I think their broadsword deserve to get gold as they are very cooperative and strong. As for the group fists, i do not think they are as good as CCHMS people. All of the CCH B-Boy can do no hand cart-wheel (che kong) but they (Ping Yi) cant. CCH was like so cooperative and their routine was fabulous. Ping Yi, in fact, won them by 0.01 but they still lost to CCHMS in "B" Division Overall Champion.
VJC A-Boys won 2 golds in the group events today. We defeated MJC and other JCs in the event today. MJC's fist got 5th and their weapon achieve 2nd. According to score, we were broke the tie and were in the lead instead. Actually, we were lucky to get the 1st today because there were errors made during our competition. For example, with hand touching the ground and forgetting stances. But this are no longer important now. At least, i did not disappoint myself and we attain gold medals for the events.
"C" Boys-1 gold, 1 silver. "B" Boys-2 silvers "B" Girls-1 gold, 1 silver. "A" Girls-2 golds. "A" Boys-2 golds. Almost half of the medals were taken up by CCHMS and VJC wushu people. When the end of competition approached, medals were presented to the winners and then.... ANNOUNCING THE OVERALL CHAMPION!
"C" Boys-Overall Champion-------------------->
"C" Girls-Overall 1st runner up---------------->
"B" Boys-Overall Champion------------------->
"B" Girls-Overall Champion-------------------> THIS IS IMBAL!
"A" Boys-Overall Champion------------------->
"A" Girls-Overall Champion------------------->

In fact, there's only 3 girls in "C" Girls and 3 of them alone were able to achieve 5 golds, 2 silvers, and 1 bronze. They only lost to the "C" Girls Champion by 2 points. If they had enough people to participate for the Group Event and get 4th, they will be able to get overall champion and i believe CCHMS and VJC will own the whole Wushu world. I only have 3 words to describe them---"They are pros".
After they had finished with the prize presentation ceremony, we were celebrating by singing school songs, both VJC and CCHMS, doing "Yo VJC" and "Get on" cheer, and taking photos.
It was as if pandemonium broke out when we were taking pictures. We even threw Yong Chao into the air and his heart almost stopped at the 4 instances we threw him. We were intending to throw him up at the fourth time and run away, making him break his bones. *Laugh* I am only joking.
Coach Cai and Quek were so happy to see our achievements and they joined us in the chaos. We were unintending to leave the Sports Hall until badminton people came to occupy the hall.
I am proud of my school (CCHMS and VJC) today, tomorrow my school will be proud of me. (CCHMS motto). I am absolutely proud of VJC and CCHMS wushu and i love the wushu teams all!
I guess i will be jumping around madly tomorrow and i cannot imagine how Mr Tan Yew Hwee will react tomorrow. If he shows me a "of course or we should win" face, i will *censored* him...
