Well, 4 days more till we train with coach again. and a month time to ACC.


Soccer was super funny omg. The group of kids we invited to play with us are really funny! Like, there's a small guy named Terry, he tried to throw the ball forward, but through his legs like a 360 kinda thing? and it went high but a little bit forward. Then the guy named Jeffrey, he said "aiya noob lah, this is how it's done" then he throws the ball in between his legs and behind him, out of the court XD.

The things they say to each other also super funny XD

anyway, that aside.

ALL COURSEWORK ALMOST DONE! EXCEPT CMATHS COURSEWORK No. 2

:)

Looks like I'm going to ACC after all :):)

All that hard work reassuring my parents that my schoolwork would not be affected has paid off!

Iran, here I come :D.

Now the only thing is that I must win like, something reasonable there! otherwise sending me would be a waste no? :(.

Heh, 4 events is gonna wear me out but... For myself, and for the team! I will persevere! :D.

Can you hear me say
"Don't throw me away"
There's no way out
I gotta hold you somehow


I'll be the one in the middle next time, hopefully.



Oh well. Anyway, I should be doing better things in school at the moment, though I just finished my Chinese coursework :P.

Hinyang. You summed It all up.

to the hungarian. our coach. our friend. our idol. our role model. you never gave up on anyone of us. you were always there. picking up pieces of our shattered dreams and dashed hopes. putting it all back together. you kept us going. you sought no returns. whenever we felt like giving up, we knew we couldn't. all we needed to do was to turn back and look at how tired you were, yet you were still paddling with us. the 3 sessions you would do in a day, who were we to complain. thank you so much for believing in us. we will be back, better, faster, stronger. you'll see.

omg. I cried reading this, knowing how disappointing our k2 must have been.

Great, my phone is lost.
I've realised how much I want to win Worlds. It's not just a tiny flicker of hope now, it's becoming real for me. Romanian coach said so, coach said so, I'm getting encouraged from every side. And I seriously do not want to let coach or my dreams down. At almost any cost.
I will make A Finals two years from now, I promise. - and win it, or come close. ACC is a stepping stone, and I really cannot afford not to go.

I hope you understand.
I'm down this road and there's no turning back.
You can stick around I guess
Or you can walk away
I'm used to people coming and going anyway
Brandon
Don't worry, I'm not trying to sound pitiful.
I've got my dreams at night, books and nelo in the day
Entirely up to you to do anything you want
I've already been numbed by defeat
All I want is the taste of finally having victory
And not just cheap thrills,
But real, true victory.
I need to suffer to attain it;
And I'm ready






I hoped you wouldn't though, but it's unfair to you, I know. So do whatever you think's best.

Seriously, how could I even think I stood a chance!

Well, this post marks the last day that I have, schoolless! I'm slightly scared to what I might find in school tomorrow... But who cares, die then die. HAHA

So I failed terribly. It's my fault that Joshua spent his last World Juniors losing. Really. Especially for the 500m! I can't seen to find a positive version of panic..

When I pride myself for being a 1000m great, my endurance supposed to be alright, but I panicked before my 500m race and really screwed it up. Like, I died with 300m left to go, and we weren't even first at that point of time. That is so not me.

I would like to say we did a good 1000m anyway, but I realised after the whole thing, that I must have let coach down. If we had hit his target timing, we'd be in one of the finals. But we didn't. sigh, I keep having the feeling the only people that let coach down was our k2. Sorry, coach.

But I'll have my next World Juniors to get my revenge, and when that time comes, everyone would want to trade their jackets for mine! HAHAHAH

First Junior Singaporean to get into A Finals, that's a start (:
