Great news to tell you...


Hi there.Ive got a great piece of news that I would like to tell you.If you are a fan of The Amazing Race Asia,I believe you would have known that our boys,Colin and Adrian have won the competition which is really fantastic! For those of you who dont subscribe to the cable vision,you are unable to watch it as Mediacorp dont have the rights to telecast it.
Anyway,the final three teams,was Colin and Adrian from Singapore,Marc and Rovilson from the Philippines as well as Pamela and Vanessa from Malaysia,and what a final it was.It was a close finish indeed.If the winners of the competition was decided based on the numbers of legs won,then Marc and Rovilson would have won it undoubtedly,but unfortunately for them and fortunately for me,it doesnt go that way and each leg of the race must be won by itself.Throughout the entire race,Marc and Rovilson was always on top and Colin and Adrian was always coming closely behind,so I was hoping for a change of fortune in the last leg of the race.When they didnt ask their taxi to wait for them at the Raffles Statue,I was really angry and I thought,'Well,thats the end,its over for them' because they were the last team to reach to the destination for their next and last challenge for the race which is to place the flags of the countries according to the country that they visited first.And even though Marc and Rovilson reached there first,Rovilson,who took the Roadblock struggle badly,so was Vanessa.But when Adrian took the Roadblock,he was superquick and he got it right just by doing it once! How amazing! They were followed by Pam and Vanessa and then Marc and Rovilson,and who else could finish the competition in first place if it wasnt Colin and Adrian! Pam and Vanessa took second spot while the Phillipinos boys took third.

You couldnt tell how happy and proud I was the moment they step on the mat.I was over joy really.Why? Because obviously,they are from Singapore and theres nothing sweeter than to win by coming back from behind.And also,they was the only Singapore team in the race,some other team have two representative from countries like Japan and Phillpines,but of course this competition is not about national pride but I still take it that way.They won US $100,000,how cool is that.But credit to the other two teams as well for making it to the final three,especially Marc and Rovilson.It have to be very heartbreaking for them for not winning just because of one Roadblock,but hey,thats how The Amazing Race is,sometimes its all down to luck.Season 2 has been great.If you are interested to join the show,they are already calling for interested participant for the upcoming Season 3.You must of course be at least the age of 21 to join.If I was,I would already registered for it.But anyway,Season 3 is still a long time to go.Right now,let us just celebrate the victory of our Singapore boys.They made us proud.Well done guys!
