Q: How is your technique coming along?
A: I only just had my first session last week and I am nowhere near perfecting the technique just yet. But I hope with dedication and patience, I will be able to excel in the sport 🙂 Hoping my teachers will have the same patience to teach a silly person like me..

A: Some time in October and nopes and don’t wish to any time soon 🙂

Q: Why do you want to paddle for the Windy Pandas? What are your goals and objectives?
A: Having just started paddling for Windy Pandas, I realise that there is alot of time spirit and that everyone is willing to help each other out. That is what drives me to want to do better.

I want to become good at the sport and compete in a competition. Hoping this will improve my confidence and enhance team spirit 🙂

Q: The squad is getting bigger every year, why do you think other people want to join WP?
The people in WP are really friendly and their willingness to help really makes the newbies feel welcomed. At first, I was really scared that I’d not be up to par with the team but everyone made me feel welcomed and even joked around. People’s understanding is really important and I think WP have this.

I hope that my goofiness will bring fun and joy to the team. I hope to contribute as much as I can during my stay 🙂

Q: What is your WP nickname come from or has any special meaning? If not, any suggestions?
Ums..I’m not good at nicknames and I don’t have any suggestions either I’m afraid. But you can call me Christine for the mean time 😀

Q: If a film was about your life, which famous actor would play you and why?
Jessica Alba! She’s is an amazing lady and is 100% real in everything she does. So I think she would portray me really well. I’m real and just being me 🙂
