On Sunday 19 January 2020, I participated in my first aquathlon. An aquathlon is a competitive race that involves both open water swimming and running in succession. Not only had I never done these two things together, I also have very limited experience with open water swimming. It was Brett Bowman, my economics teacher and […]

Bangkok Feeding Frenzy 2019 // Swimming
My 5 and final feeding frenzy. It’s been quite a journey. I’ve grown as a person, an athlete, a team member. Climbed the ranks from looking up to seniors to being a senior. I’ve had my ups and downs in swimming but to me feeding frenzy isn’t about the swimming really. It’s about having fun […]
SEASAC Cross Country 2019 // Activity
From the 28-30th of November 2019 I was extremely fortunate to attend the annual SEASAC Cross Country meet hosted by Garden International. The team was chosen based of only a single 5k time (19:45) and training on Mon, Tue and Thurs. I was seeded the slowest in the East Dragons, and was the only one […]
Vlogs Ep. 1 & 2 // Project week

Final Written Reflection // Project week

After hours and hours of planning, and numerous setbacks we successfully completed our week of activities and service. I am happy to say we all made it back in […]

SEASAC Swimming 2019 // Swimming
My 5th SEASAC Swimming, held in Malaysia by Garden international. Hyped up to be one of the biggest swimming school events of the year, right up next to SNAGs. In my opinion, SEASAC is a team bonding meet. If we’re being honest our team trains the hardest and hence we are the fastest team… by […]
CNY Break Check In
CNY Break Evaluation More than half way through the academic year, I’m doing the second large reflection on the activities and services which I am a part of. I haven’t started anything new but I’ve kept with the same activities and services and further developed the skills and qualities within myself. I still enjoy all […]

Feeding Frenzy 2018 // Swimming
Feeding Frenzy is an annual meet held in Bangkok attended by the East Dragons swim team every year. I think this was my 5th year attending the meet, and every year I always say it’s probably the most fun of the year. For multiple reasons. One, the atmosphere of Feeding Frenzy is different from many […]
TTS Merlions Meet at OCBC Aquatics // Swimming
Recently I attended the annual TTS Merlions meet, this was held at the OCBC aquatics center. I overall thought it was a good early-season meet for myself as I don’t usually swim early season meets well. There were some disappointments, but my 50m breaststroke was really quite good scoring 2nd place and making a new […]
