The beginning

When I was a little child my father told me something, he told me once that if I keep on, I can maybe be the best in the world, just like LANCE ARMSTONG. My father Jacques Redelinghuys use to practice with me, but he hurt his leg. Hopefully we can practice together soon again. I must say he gave me a very strong mind. He told me to keep on, no matter how it hurts, keep your head in the game. Ignore the pain, shut up, and keep on going. Thanks dad for being with me all the time.

A First Time for Everything

I have been living away from home for a while now.. But the last week, I have started to realize it for the first time. Not hearing my sisters singing or humming in her room. Not hearing my little sis playing with dolls or doing the usual of a five-year-old. Not hearing the TV on some sport channel, not noticing the smell of dinner being made every afternoon. Most of my friends wanted to leave home as soon as they were done with school, but not me. If I had a choice, I would live with my parents for as long as I could. Not because I am afraid to live alone, but just because of the bond that has grown between me and my family. I am extremely close with my parents, and that's why I miss them so much. We had a big race the past weekend, so my parents and little sis came through for the weekend. It was a blast to see them again, for the first time in a month if I am correct. Just to hear my little sisters chatter and speaking her imagination in the background gave me a warm feeling...
