yes! post 100! a major landmark in the lifetime of this blog...

i just read a few of my archive posts, and its like i find that i have changed alot since then. like for one, i dont swear anymore, and this is currently my 6th day! yay! haha and i guess my thinking has changed (for the better?) alot since then... maybe this is all part of growing up, part of growing more mature.

haha today i went back to nyps with alot of guys like zhi and skoh and tom, and went there to visit the teachers. haha surprisingly the teachers still remember us, okay fine, most of them still remember me cos of the trouble i caused. haha yanzhi said that teachers are happy to see me cos that reminds them that they not teaching me anymore. like not lor! they happy to see me cos i good student... (i delude myself sometimes)

after seeing all the teachers we decided to go play soccer with the chinese high guys... and i played quite okay la haha made a good run down the left then crossing for a sec 2 guy then he missed. hmm that made me realise something... haha no matter how hard we work on our process or our trainings, its still the finishing that matters. like this year polo team... we worked really hard together, bonded really well together, and looked the strongest team. yet during the competition, we just couldnt finish off the other teams, just lacked that mean streak to win us the games.

i guess thats what we'll have to learn. come u18 competition on thursday, we'll just have 3 trainings left till then. i guess itll be a great competition to gauge our student and polish up on the formations we learn during training. but it kinda shows whether we are able to finish off what we have worked so hard for during our trainings...

anyway yeah today the second issue of RInspire was given out to the students and i wrote 2 articles, one for polo and one for sailing. i didnt really care about the sailing article so yea it was damn short... not my problem anyway, thats not my first cca. but i guess the polo article really did reflect my feelings and how i felt about nationals this year, that the team were champions in our own right.

ohwells, but if we put so much into the process, but we lack the finishing touch... it all comes to naught. however strong we are, however bonded we are, we do not have that gold. im not saying team spirit is not the most important... but it is undeniable that as a sports cca our pedigree will be judged by the results we attain. so this year, we must show that not only do we have the process, we have the product. and let start with the u18 competition on thursday.

oh... and happy teachers' day! to any teachers i know? haha
