ahhhhh.
term 2 has finally come to an end! but that would signal the beginning of hardcore mugging during the holidays. no, make that STUDY BREAK. it ain't any other holidays! it's more like a month-long preparation for block test 2 and prelims. term 3 is gonna be mind-numbing. WE WILL SURVIVE!!! ultimately...haha.
Anyway, just giving my two cents' worth on some of the comments people make on redsports.sg. to say that HC bballers displayed no sportsmanship by thrashing IJ in the National A div basketball finals is rather preposterous. isn't sportsmanship about behaving in a fair and generous way during a game? Generous doesn’t mean you give points away to your opponents, because that would be utter disrespect for the game itself. To have sportsmanship is to play in a firm and dignified manner; not using unscrupulous means to attain victory. In that sense, how is it that winning by a big margin is equivalent to poor sportsmanship?
Two incidents that occurred on Wed during the netball finals at TPY sports hall got me on my nerves. Pretty badly. Zhi, kai and I were walking up the stairs of the stadium when some guy from some JC actually turned to face us and said “poseurs.” I thought I was hearing things and didn’t bother to give him a second look. But it turned out that zhi heard him too! I was fuming mad after that. Lol. It’s not because he labeled us as poseurs. It’s because he made an unjust judgment about us in just a few seconds! Hello, you just saw us for about 5 seconds and you think you know us? Erps. Yeah, it’s probably because of the red team bag that all of us were carrying that day. I admit it’s quite attention-seeking and loud la. But still…how can we be poseurs?! I think all poseurs will die of shame, knowing that we are labeled as one of them. Lol.
Another incident was that some adult was dissing HC for not applauding when the guest of honour was about to make a speech. He was sitting right below us, so I could hear his comments quite clearly. We were like, HUH?! What’s the need for that comment? I retaliated, but I felt that I shouldn’t have. There isn’t a need to fight back. I should have just ignored whatever he had to say. Whatever. It’s off my chest now, I feel so much better (:

hcvb: A division girls volleyball CHAMPS again!
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh SHA!
i'm so proud to be part of the team. even though i might not been good enough to play on the courts, or i might not have felt the level of anxiety and ultimate euphoria my team mates have experienced during the match, i certainly feel belonged to the team, the team which won the championship for A division volleyball this year. all the hard work and preserverance were paid off. we've set our minds on that goal, and now we've finally got what we've wanted. sadly, the finals marked the end of our volleyball season ): we don't have an official reason to slack off our work anymore. part of me is glad that we finally have more time to concentrate on our studies (OHNO I'M SUCHA MUGGA =P), the other part just wants to play volleyball for the rest of the year.
btw, i felt that it was my best warmup yesterday...never have i been so focused during a warmup. i think i spiked and received pretty well ytd. yeah, it may just be a warmup, no big deal, but to me it felt really good. oh well, it's hard to describe. like what i've told some of my team mates, sometimes i really wish i had taken up volleyball in secondary school...but i also acknowledge that npcc has made such a deep impact on me that no other cca would have done. in any case, i'm glad that i joined volleyball in jc (:
season might have ended...but the friendship and company doesn't end there! we shall crash juniors' trng and play tog =P

lalala.
skipped h3 cuz i was virtually blind at school. tore my last pair of contact lenses in the morning and forgot to bring specs to school ): had to bear with the stinging pain in my right eye during the first hour of school before i discarded the contacts. i had to have clear vision for napfa! if not i'll probably miss the beanbag on the floor during shuttle run. lol. anyway napfa is so...unnecessary. napfa results doesn't determine your state of fitness, really. i don't feel any fitter than last year, yet my results reflect otherwise. well, in any case, we don't have to undergo napfa anymore! though i still have my 2.4km run ahead of me. eeekk.
back to the contact lenses story. come to think of it, i really don't mind having blurry vision if not for the fact that i need to copy notes during lectures. it's such a blessing, especially when you don't have to witness what you don't wish to. or...when you don't wish to engage in eye contact with strangers. haha. okay that kinda sound like a recluse, but i'm not one (:
hmmmm. you're an enigma of sorts. i guess i'll just leave it up to you. i can't be bothered to figure out what you're thinking anymore.
