1 week had past just like that. Results gotten back. The ultimate disappointment in some, especially for those that I had my hopes held so high because of the intense amount of effort I put in. But right now, I've dropped all focus on studies, just trying to drift through these 2 months of school, without lagging, and instead concentrate solely on the upcoming season. Speaking of season, soccer trngs are everyday now. I'm getting really tired, but I have to hang in there because everyone around me is doing so to. And I am SO NOT going to give up now, after all that we've gone through. This is what I've been looking forward to. There were really really bad trainings, adding on to the fact that the papers I've gotten back that day were double boo, it was one hella emo day. Special thanks to Tixi the Small, for being with me, crying for 1 hour on our own, throwing out all the burdens. I know its a freaking wrong timing to be breaking down at this point of time, but if not now, wonder how long more can I hold it in. Emo Budd and I are gonna be strong now, no more tears and we'll just push each other on.
Tuesday was a halfday, really fun time spent at Rachel's house. Scamming her, getting scared instead, eating all her food, watching the movie DOUBT, playing Wii, trashing her in Boxing and Tixi in Tennis. It was pure fun and enjoyment, I need little joys like these (:
Had our 2nd round of testimonial match yesterday. I was subbed in the 2nd half, and I really enjoyed the game, despite the uber hot sun, that made my toes feel like they're on fire in the boots. Chasing down every ball, I like that. Seeing all the seniors once again was really nice, a pity Xiang couldn't come and Bob didn't stay long. It brought back all the memories when they were still around though, and it sure was fun. Like PeiQi taking forever in the toilet, incessant teasing of LeLe again..Well, the outcome of the match was finally good, a win for the juniors alas. This is our last friendly after 17 matches, that concludes the pre-season I guess? With just a few more trainings and we're into our season, I'm all hyped up. But yet there's this little dread in me that I don't want the season to end, don't want soccer to end. Because then it will just be books notes and me, and that's really gay and F-A-T!

SOCCER CAMP '09 WAS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!
The first double trng was rather horrid, something possessed all of us to under-perform and we disappointed not only ourselves, but Coach and the juniors as well, so much so that JTS was cancelled. The CPR talk was really weird, with a 1-to-1 kiss with Mini Anne. Oohlala Pervet De'cruz was excited for that XD! Movie of the Night: Some golf show about Francis Ouimet, a caddie boy who outshone over the famous stars like Harry Vardon and Ted Ray. Another of those inspiring movies that Coach always choose for us (:
Woke up at 5 plus the next morning to go for an early morning run with Coach. End up, it was a SCAM! Coach treated us to Macs Breakfast!! (: What a delight! Back to school and ended up in trouble with TYH for staying over illegally. What a spoiler.
Match against NJC. I'm really really glad for this opportunity to be able to play the whole entire game, given that chance to really step up as a senior, shouting my lungs sore to push up, shift and even waking up our own ideas. I swear I've never shouted so much and so loudly in my life before. I felt so much adrenaline rush, I was so focus on my one goal that my stupid partella injury did not even bother me throughout the game, also thanks to ZhangQian for her partella band [: It was a great match for me, and I treasure it alot, except for some stupid mistakes here and there. I'm sorry to the team, to Coach, for that stupid last goal conceded. I've learnt and I promise there won't be a second time like that. I will learn how to be a proper last man. Versatility is the word.
2nd trng was better, although not perfect. Following it was JTS! The juniors are perfect BBQ-ers, and oh-boy, they are the bomb when it comes to dancing!! "Doncha wish your girlfriend was perv like Jes" hahaha. Three Cheers and Kudos for the Juniors of VJSG!!! Coach and Nat sang songs to end off the night (: Headed to Gling's house for the night's rest. Her house is ultra big, with thousands of pillows, bolsters and mattresses. Betnyny and I actually had 4 sleeping bags to ourselves!
Woke up at 5 plus the next morning AGAIN to start our day off with 3 tasks!
#1 Hike back to school in 30min. We did it!
#2 Get the whole team through the spider web (in 15 min, we failed) Eventually We did it!
#3 Get the bag at the top of the container classroom. We did it!
Butbutbut! I'm really really really really really super sorry to the team and coach, for breaking the trophy. Although you guys may say its okay or whatsoever, I really take the blame onto myself and I'm so sorry. I told Coach this, and I will tell you guys, that if you give me the chance, I will work my very very best, to earn a gold trophy back for you. I promise. Girls, please help me make this not an empty promise. Once again, I'm really sorry, and we'll work hard together for our last final journey!
Anw, lastly was Gauntlet with LeLe the Queen as Falcao's faci. Running alongside Jehh-Min and the juniors Rachel Rachelle Cheryl Rasyiqah, was a really awesome experience I would not trade for another. Although we boarded the wrong bus, couldn't settle on a specific mode of transport, shamelessly begging for money, hallucinating about bread, getting chased out of NLC and ran and ran and ran, it was really really fun. Ended off with team-golden-pillow-dinner, giving out of jerseys and sharing session. It was one emo ending, but those tears and laughter will always spur me on to work even harder, for the Team VJSG that I love. Quoting the perv Jes, You guys are fun, I love you all. (:
Guilt is a horrible feeling. I can't seem to get rid of it. I guess only time can mend it. Both incidences have certainly taught me lessons, lessons I will never forget and never commit ever ever again. But the guilt I have in me, shucks the feeling totally sucks. I understand how Sock feels, when I spoke to her last night, after all the emo sharing. I know I should stop self reproaching as it won't help anything, but ultimately, its hard not to when it fell right off my very own hands. Anyway, Thank you Xin and Ame, for trying so hard to fix my mistake, thank you for all the hugs, Sock, Tano, Mentee, Mentor, Perv and the team. This is random, but speaking to Sock after the match, she reminded me of this: Thank you Nyny, for giving me the confidence to try as last man. You were the one who encouraged me to do so, despite my wavering beliefs of self doubt. And to Ame, I love Climbing, Thank you for last year and this year's camp climbing experiences! Without you guys, I don't know what I'll do.
Singularity in Purpose-that I am all for it now! Bring it on!

It's the March hols once again (:
Went for a good swim after so long. Shucks, I think my speed in the pool is deteriorating, I'm getting slower ):
Met Lum and Fang, had fun with cereals, vouchers and 'cheating' the provision shop, Lum's a total pro at that!
Went for a sleepover with Ning at Yilin's. Watched 4 movies in less than 24hours, my eyes are gonna pop soon anytime! Had loads of fun with Koizora, Coming Soon, License to Wed and 10 Things I Hate About You. Coming Soon is pretty frightening, adding on to the effects: The whole row was empty beside me (Or maybe it wasn't) Stupid Chaba freaked me out. CHABAAAAA! Had a feast load of food before leaving for school. Luckily all the food had digested before the match.
Match against International Soccer Academy. We won 3-2 I think. It was a good match for me, and I'm happy (: It felt really good to run my guts out for the team, chasing down every ball, I felt extra motivated yesterday, don't know where that rush came from, but its good! Had a late late team dinner, much later than usual :|
Watching more movies online now: Taiyou no Uta and Marley & Me!!! I shall officially zone out of the world until my parents come back tonight, with just the computer and I. Soccer camp starting tomorrow! Am looking forward (: Especially to Gauntlet!

So many highlights since my last post! Life has been pretty fun these days, I'm starting to see things in a brighter perspective, I believe there's a happier note to everything. Could be the book that I'm reading, The Last Lecture, which is a small book but I'm taking eons to read it ( I don't know whyyyy ). Its a pretty good book I reckon, it made more of a thinking and appreciative person.
HIGH-lights:
* Ceee Teees are over!!! Finallyyy, gone are the days of hard mugging and non-stop hello panda-ing! Good or bad grades, I really tried my best. I just wanna improve from promos so I'm crossing all my fingers and toes now!
* A levels results are out! Our soccer seniors are unbelievable!! They are super super super clever, they inspire me! Congrats dearest smarts #1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8!
* Happy belated birthday Pat!
* Happy belated birthday Mandy! I'm sorry I couldn't go for the outing at night! Fu Lin Yong Tau Foo was a new experience!
* Kicking around with the soccer girls after a long deprived hiatus. Dinner with them at Blk 85, best Ahballing!
* Sleepover at Betterknees's! Her bed is super shiok, so much so that I fell asleep on it accidentally, and ended up sleeping on her tummy! Tootie's breakfast was scrumptious-8 Fatty Paus, 4 sandwiches, 4 drinks XD!
* Early morning VOG torch relay with coach around the school (:]) , followed by 2.4km (:|)
* Watch soccer match at Pervert De'cruz's house.
* Happy birthday Dick!
NON highlights:
Liverpool vs Man Utd, 4-1 )))):
As quoted by Rachel Termite, "This is tragic"...
Temporary liberation from books and notes feels so good, sooooo gooooood! I'm gonna wake up when the sun is high high high up in the sky tomorrow!

Beaming with pride.
Never did I expect or even dream to be in the top 2o for CrossCountry. Looks like all that trainings and intervals, even when I was grumbling, was not for nothing. 17th, or 15th (minus IP kids category), I'm just really really really happy. One thing I can really take away from this is what Coach said before the race, about not listening to your body when you are tired, listen to your heart. It came right to me at the last leg of the race, making me push hard for my team (: To add on to the happiness, our lovely seniors and grandseniors came back to support us! Now which other team has that!
Eeeevil grannnyy dear, intro-ed to me the world's best waffles! All the waffles in PP, Kovan or AMK, are nothing compared to the one at SingPost! Everyone, GO TRY IT! It's crispy and ultra delicious :D
I get the hint, I get the gist. I'm backing off for now, until its time. But by then, it might just be too late. I'm trying to push all the other thoughts away to the back of my head, and focus on what's important to me now.
