12 more retarded weeks before A levels! woo hoo! not in a sense where i'm suppose to be excited but instead scared! arg.. had a fun PE today, archery competition.. it was a competition whereby each group is cut after each round and we were so good in the first round but in the 2nd round we were so bad that we were tied to 'qualify'.. SO, the 'best archer' of both groups had to freaking shoot again and lady luck was not on my side because the other team's guy hit the bull's eye! damn it.. and the pressure was on me and i totally faltered hahahahah! o man, it was so freakin hilarious.. hopefully, next week's PE will be as fun..
took a series of photos with tianshui's laptop last week and (this according to tianshui) is supposingly the nicest of the lot.. hahahaha.. i'm gonna miss school when it's over.. but o well.. we all have to move on.. :)
Inter Schools Frisbee competition.. Friday night received a call from Kim asking for help to replace a missing player for their frisbee competition on saturday (yesterday).. so i agreed thinking it's gonna be fun and 'a form of healthy living' hahahaha.. I was right about the healthy living part since it was exercise BUT I didn't expect it to be as tiring and dirty..
MI team (from my 'outsider's' point of view):
- have potential
- really think they lack the 'togetherness' part of a team
- there was quite a bit of quarrels here and there but i'm not gonna comment much about that
- lost 4 out of 4 (full marks) and i blame the losses to the problem that the team couldn't get it together and kept fighting..
- could actually lead by more then 2 points but it just didn't hold
- with more stamina training and team bonding, i'm think this team will excel
it was at teachers' network, some place behind weelock place.. played an entire day without realising time was flying by.. met a number of track people there: joel,elvin,rachael,engwei and some others i don't really know they're name but only their faces.. o well, i had fun, made some new friends and at the same time ran about hahahaha :) a RJC player hurt himself during the finals with ACJC and was falling into unconciousness thereafter so let's just hope he'll be fine :)
night time was at cousin's house for her 21st birthday at Yishun before rushing to Pasir Ris for another 21st birthday, my dad's cousin.. then, went to my aunt's house just for fun.. annoying to travel to so many places when you've got sunburn, muddy feeling all over..
today's stay home day and I was a little bored.. sooooo, took photos of Taisho and bunny at home hahaah.. quite fun actually..
more pictures on facebook :)
it's my first week to try and head towards full gear into the A levels.. and i'm tired hahaa.. but i'm still ok i guess.. started night study plans with shali as well already and it made me miss my beach.ball.babes.breasts.backside.bastards show.. hahahahahah! i still follow the show thou because i didn't miss much anyway since i don't stay that far away from school.. i'm starting to worry for my GP and Econs now although i have no idea why.. but i think they're my weaker subjects now just based on my gut feeling.. o well.. just do my work i'll be fine.. my irritating classmates are into frog catching in school now and today was a record of 7.. the smaller ones are cute, but they're overall a disguesting animal to me anyway.. :P
Just got home from getting Mr Loh's presents.. got him a nike bag, nike slippers and a nike water bottle..got them from weelock's Nike with calvin.. hahah.. was his last day in school yesterday.. went to Sakura to have some sorta 'team dinner'.. but only some of the track team members were there.. had so much foooood and in the end we played some games to finish the food.. and Atiqah didn't learn her lesson! i've gotts start shifting towards full gear by next week for the As already.. so time to do some GP work now :)
final day of nationals and final race for me.. it was so horrible, that i did like (according to shali) 54 secs for my first leg.. sigh, i'm feeling so retarded now.. what a year to get injured.. before the race started I felt a pain in my knee, (i don't know why) but just told myself to just go on with it.. o man, the more I think about it, the worse I feel now.. so, i can't turn back time but i kinda suspect we were just too lucky last year.. our 4x400m has always been better compared to our 4x100m and it's the same this year.. o god, i really wonder if i'm good enough to continue running.. because I really want to make a full recovery and come back stronger then before.. it's now time to just focus on the A levels.. move on move on..
tomorrow will be the final time i get to run in the inter school championships ever.. it's been the 7th year that i'm running in this meet and it's been really memorable.. i'm gonna miss this meet..if i'm not wrong, i've ran a total of 39 races in this meet since sec 1.. hahah.. it's always the all important nationals that mattered back in AES.. hahah.. how time flies but we've all gotta move on.. tomorrow i'm gonna run the race of my life again, just like last year.. kinda excited but would have prefered another 4x100m.. but o well.. stay relaxed, happy and ya whatever hahahaha..
Last few days of the 49th Nationals 2008.. and it's getting fun :) after doing badly again and again, i realise what this nationals really lacked was the fun element.. i've been looking at things in a 'overly-goal oriented' way.. just have fun, who cares what happens! that's should have been the attitute.. but o wells.. for the rest of this year, i'll just remind myself every now and then, that there's no need to fret over things.. I used to be more relaxed until recently.. wonder why.. but o well haha..
4x400m semis, a stroll for shali just so he could rest for the 400m finals which he broke the championship record :) woo! so cool.. we qualified for the finals, thankfully but we're in for a fight for the gold medal.. it felt like a revenge run for the 4x100m.. damn it.. but o well.. what will be will be..
A GIANTIC YELLOW UNDERWEAR CONGRATS SHALI! :)
just when you thought that bad races were over, it happens again..
just when you thought that disqualifications were far from anchoring, it looms closer..
just when you thought that the day cannot get any worse, your comrades fall too..
just when you thought that it's a breeze, we ended up in a thunderstorm..
just when you thought that doing your part was enough, it isn't only about you..just when you thought that 9 was a small single digit number, it actually stood out..
just when you thought that 0.01 of your life was worth nothing, it's worth more..
just when you thought that perhaps things are not going your way, keep going..
just when you thought that life's over, it isn't, just move on...
just when you thought that you're all alone, you're not..
cheer up, move on, there's more to life :)
