xphysique-tanning

spent the day doing my lifeguard duty at the school's xphysique event at kallang. basically my duty was to be the lifeguard based on the speed boat. for the entire afternoon, i was just in the powerboat, bumping around, enjoying the breeze and keeping a lookout for the kayaking event competitors. nothing happened, which for me, is a good thing. the cool breeze sure was enjoyable. one of the kayaks we came up to was leaking so we helped them out. it sure look like they were going to sink. phew. however due to some miscommunication errors, a couple of kayaks stilllaunched off from clarke quay at 5.30pm. there was great danger as they were launching without the powerboat around for safety and if they were caught by the maritime port authrority to still be kayaking in the open sea area off marina promenade after 6pm, they would have been fined. thankfully everybody came in safely. phew!
