I first heard the news on Sat when i was doing housekeeping at home. Felt so sad for them. Was shocked as i have a couple of friends who are avid dragonboat rowers but im not sure if the 5 were anyone i knew.

On Sun while having dinner with the bestie and our partners, we were still discussing about this when the TV in 925 flashed the photos of the 5 guys who drowned.

Of the 5, one of them was my poly course mate and we did exchanged a few words before. Not that i knew him personally but im still saddened by the news.

Life is really fragile. One moment you are alive doing what you like and best in, the next moment, you could be gone. There are so much uncertainty in life, we should really treasure our loved ones and take things for granted.

I hope he rest in peace and cited by the newspaper, it was at least a consolation that the guys died doing what they loved most.
