Pesta Sukan Kebangsaan ke-VIII Closing Ceremony

After watching our matches from the first two days on video, the guys carried the television outside to wait for Coach nim's husband to pick it (and her) up. Don't let them fool you, there's nothing on T.V.

Furthest away from camera to nearest, left to right: Arif (doing the 'peace' sign), Yazid (pointing), Ain (in front of Yazid), Lorena (behind Afeah), Afeah, Fatullah, Zul (half-hidden), Choo, Azrul (covering mouth), Hidayah and finally, Saiful. Sabumnim and Coach nim are in the background.

This lot love to pose for photos. When you want to take a picture of three, you end up taking thirty. I love this pic. It's damn funny.

I'm going to miss the guys a lot, even though we're meeting up at the gym again on Thursday. I'm also going to miss the Temburong people. They're a cool bunch. I like them.
The only reasons why I went to the closing ceremony yesterday was to see them for a last time before they returned home and because our coaches asked us to. Not many of us showed up though.

Hazwani and I were the only Taekwondo people for Tutong. Rezam, Arif and Choo didn't go. They should have. It was boring without them. Not to mention very hot.

The Brunei Muara people had fun though. Their picture is in today's Borneo Bulletin. I told you they love photo-taking sessions. 

We got our black-belt certificates, too. Awesome.

While we waited for the very last events to finish, we saw these guys run the 5000 m finals. One askar guy, he lapped the backmarkers twice. Someone came up with the idea of getting him to autograph our shoes, but we didn't get the chance.
