原来计划这个月是要到巴西去参加雷迪尔世锦赛的，但在一切手续都差不多办好之后才发现我的护照竟然不巧过期了，而然这个时候重新再办已经来不及，因此就只能取消我的福塔雷萨之行咯。结果没想到的是因为我的缺席，却让另外两个队友也取消了参加世锦赛的机会，真抱歉。
当然，我这几天天天都在关注巴西世锦赛的一切消息来源，该竞赛已于前天结束了所有轮次的比赛。最终，世界排名第一的美国选手裴吉如愿以偿的拿到了该级别成为奥运会以来的第一个世界冠军。真佩服她，回想我今年在韩国世青赛和她之间的数次交手，真的是蛮刺激的。本来还可以打赢她的，结果因为雾太大了我也没罗经找不到标，就这样白白的把金牌拱手让给她了。更可惜。
不过老实说，我感觉自己在激光上的水平确实不如人家，基础水平还差得远，那次的比赛之所以能和裴吉这样的高手有如此激烈的角逐，是我对韩国这个场地的了解比较透彻，我的优势只是在航线的选择上。因此以后在欧洲比赛，或许我没有了航线的优势之后还能和她正面交手么？还是我连世界前二十都进不去？
不管了，先不去想这些，目前我的目标就是好好的把激光这个新级别的基础打打好，先把基本技术练好了再谈其他方面的。相信只有这样，在通过我的努力之后，可以追上向裴吉这样的世界优秀选手的。加油，加油！朝着自己的目标永往直前！http://spaces.msn.com/rte/emoticons/smile_wink.gif
我把裴吉写给我的信和照片给大家看看：
Hi, Lijia. This is the Paige Railey Team Newsletter.
HHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just got back from Brazil about a couple of hours ago
and
I have some great news: I
WON! This means that I won
the
Laser Radial Worlds! Unfortunately, my Great Uncle,
(Uncle
Tom), who has been sick for many years passed away
during
my Worlds. I just found out today since my family wanted
to keep it a secret until I was home. I know he would of
been very excited to hear about another one of my
sailing
adventures and the exciting new title. So in memory of
him,
I dedicate my win in his rememberance.
To give you some feedback the sailing in Brazil was
difficult but at least the wind varied. Some days it was
very light, while others days there was plenty of
breeze.
One thing that was very surprising about the event was I
won because I was the most consistent of the girls. The
top
pack varied from race to race. Some sailors would win
one
race then be almost last the next. I never even won a
race.
There was only one time that I pulled away from the
pack and as I was saying in my head, "Yes, I think I
will
win, and o buddy look at my lead!" I flipped over. The
boats went flying by me and my heart stopped beating! I
ripped the boat back over and started to pick people off
one by one.
When I won, the most exciting things happened. I sailed
in
and I looked over and saw fireworks going off! Next
people
were running up to me with the
biggest bottle of champagne I have ever seen. Congrats
were
being yelled and I popped the cork and the alcohol went
spraying and I watched my flag being raised!
I have to say that it was a bit challenging for me. I
ate
something bad and for some reason I could not get over
being sick. So for the whole regatta I was not feeling
that
hot. I had fevers, cramps, loss of apetite...but I can
say that I was in denial pretty bad. I kept saying,
"Nope
I'm not sick," until I was in the fetal position laying
in
my bed in pain! Ha, my mom was just giggling at me.
Well, now I have to do SCHOOLWORK! I have about a couple
of
hours to complete a part of an exam! BLAH.... Have I
ever
said that school doesn't rock my world????
I will post pictures on my website so you can view them
later on. I will send an update when they are up!
Cheers,
Paige

awards.
