end of space dragons 2009 dragonboat season

it's friday night, 3:18am, and i'm not asleep yet! not having practice at 7:30 the next morning is really making me feel like i can just stay up all night. this isn't going to be good for tomorrow...

the race last weekend was awesome. once again, ripple showed us a good time, and we almost-but-not-quite medalled. that's ok, we definitely rose to meet the competition.

this was also the first time this season that i've called a race! so i shamelessly stole this picture from the official sf dragonboat festival gallery, and share it here. blame davin, he's the one who told me about it.



goooo white boat!

other highlights:
- missing diana lui but dancing with mike, toliver, aditya and jill at the dropbox 2 million user mega party (trapeze artist! skanky cage dancers!)
- seeing jerome for the first time in years
- getting to women's finals
- ripple food (congee for breakfast sat morning? hell yeah)
- ripple pimp-wagon
- almost missing last red race >.<
- everyone telling me about the awesome tomatoes at the paddler's party
