A new chapter is beginning...

today we had our u18 competition, just on the day yew zhihao was cremated.

our competition started off relatively well, with our sec 3 first team being able to grind out a 1-1 stalemate with hwa chong (jc + sec 4s) in the first quarter, before the second team played in the first two minutes of the second quarter and unluckily, they scored 2 goals in quick succession. we then went back in again and held them for the rest of the time and eventually final score was 3-1. quite a respectable scoreline and a good fight from us.

second match however was against rj, eventual champions too. they were really fast, zooming here and there, creating free men and having great teamwork. they won 8-0 i think, and deservedly so too. we just couldnt focus against them la. its like before we even played we lost already... because we knew that we would be overpowered by them.

next match was against temasek poly. i didnt play this match... and we won like 7-0 or something... haha maybe that shows that everytime i play we lose! anyway yeah not bad la but that was against mediocre opposition, so not really counted.

then the last match. woah that was really heart-wrenching... against barker. the team that we were really unlucky against in the nationals, losing by a goal. and it was the same again this time. we outswam, outpassed, and outthought them throughout the entire game, but just couldnt find a breakthrough. the few times they shot i could handle... but we just couldnt find the breakthrough. we missed one on ones and straightforward shots. and in the final 5 seconds, when the rest of the team went to counter, they passed to the free man and scored. final score 1-0. then i was really devastated and cried like a little boy again.

i guess my tears were forced out after the emotions really welled up. it was compounded by yewzee's passing on, and my desire to want to do break that jinx against barker. i really wanted it.

after that i went to bedok interchange to eat, before i realised that oh no my wallet was gone! ahh haha i left it in the bus. luckily, i called mr anthony lim and he linked me to a few people that i could call before i finally got the bus driver's number. and he was really nice, he agreed to meet me at bedok and he returned me my wallet! haha thanks uncle! =]

after eating (which of course took a very short while since i was starving) i went home and my dad picked me up from the mrt station. ahh and the day ended like that. heh

oh yeah and yesterday i went tom's house to sleep! so fun! haha and we almost woke up late! hahahaha we decided to sleep at around 1145pm but we talked till around 1am i think... haha talking about random stuff that ri boys are so good at.

oh and something! i wore the SIN (singapore) cap today! with the flag behind. feels so good. i like to dream of myself wearing that and playing for singapore! okay nvm... haha

and dont worry about me la im okay already i just cried everything out then im fine. haha but i came home and realised something so now im confused again... why like that?
