Bad News


All good news must come with bad news. The 11 of us comprising me, Xian Yung, Foo Mun, Kenny, Kok Leong, Joo Gin, Chee Leong, Jason, Seik San, William and Soon Cheon are going to participate in the Starwalk. I was so happy because I finally able to visit Penang. Believe it or not, I’ve never been to Penang before. To be able to participate in this prestigious event is such a great honour for me. Imaging participating in a walk with almost 5000 people taking part in different categories. But my joy never lasted long. Before trial, I’ve been facing problems with my leg. Whenever I went for a jog, my leg started to pain. There was one occasion where I decided to ignore the pain. I continued to jog even through the pain was great. When I reached home, the effects of the pain was greater. I did not tell my parents as I don’t want them to worry. I only told my parents last week. They brought me to Dr. Kong. He checked my legs to see whether there is anything wrong with my bones. Luckily he said nothing wrong. He suspected that there are some torn muscles in my legs. I asked him whether I could join the walk or not. “If after 2 weeks your legs still hurt, then must withdraw from the walk. From now you are not allowed to jog after 2 weeks. If the pain still wont go away, then you must take X-ray.” he said. That bad news totally crushed my dream of joining the Starwalk. All I can hope is that both my legs would be completely okay before the race . What a disappointment.
