It's been a long long time since i have blogged. I changed the clock on my blog! :) Well, it's been a long time since Christmas passed, and i should have changed it long ago. I changed it to a penguin, but seems like it doesn't look like one at all due to the dark background. But I think it looks nice this way - it has it's own uniqueness! :D
Anyway, i ran 8 rounds without stopping in lane 7 during yesterday's PE! That's like about 3.5km! :D I was quite satisfied with myself. Perhaps it might not be an incredible feat for some of you out there, but to me, to withstand all the temptations to stop and carry on running for such a distance isn't an everyday thing for me. :) Oh and i still have wushu after that! But luckily i didn't have to do much. I shall cut my post here as usual... I have no idea why i always have to cut my post halfway.
Sometimes, things really can be unfair... but what to do? Don't care! :)Waiting.

I'm super bored here at cchms watching wushu competition, so i decided perhaps i could blog. :) qi jie is sitting beside me and he doesn't believe that i have blog, so now i'm going to prove to him that i do have. :) see how bored i am? Haha. My event is already over so apparently i have nothing to worry about and thus nothing much to see either, except for some good ones. :)
Anyway, (i typed a lot using my phone and then it's all gone thanks to a connection loss). So that's all!
Isn't words accompanying actions just better then actions alone? o.OPretence. Acting.

It's OVER! I do not know whether to heave a sigh of relief and smile because my competition is over or put on a frown because i screwed my event up - well at least i didn't get last! :) I felt the tension when i was supposed to report at the holding area. I cooled myself down after trying very hard to relax, only to get tensed up all the way as i walked in the carpet. -.- What to do? First move i know i won't do well already. :( Never mind la. It's OVER! :D Congrats to Wei Lee for getting FIRST in 2 events! Also congrats to Jaseline for getting 4th today! :D As for the rest, jiayou and all the best! :D
If life is a train, then i'll be the driver. I will be in the driver cabin alone; separated from the passengers boarding and alighting the train by a door.GONE

8th April is my competition day. Will you cheer for me and support me from the faraway place, or would you just simply feign ignorance? o.O How i wish it can be the former. One word like 'jiayou' or maybe 'all the best' will work wonders on me, but i guess it seems to be like just an unrealistic dream. I don't dare to tell you upfront, for fear that you may say i'm seeking attention again. =X You know who you are, and don't ever ask me questions if you are not. I have enough of stuff to bother me already.
It's 2am in the morning and i'm going to start Monday with a sleepy face in school again. There goes the slack week, which ain't exactly slack after all, and upcoming weeks are simply crazy. My competition is on the coming Thursday. I really wished i could squeeze into top 4 and at least get a medal, but i am really not confident in getting one. Out of 11 competitors including myself, i'm sure there are at least more than 4 that have started wushu in secondary school, or even in primary school. How am i, after being so lazy for the past year, going to beat them? This is going to be tough, but i ain't going to give up just like that. People say the greater the dreams, the greater the disappointment. But if you don't even dare to dream, you are simply just squashing all the hope with your bare hands. Tuesday would be the last training, and i have to sleep early and just try my best! :)
What's the use of having hopes and dreams? It's for the sake of your motivation to make them ALL come true. :)Long busy weeks ahead...

Crazy. It's another 2.30am in the morning and i am here. It's going to be a long weekend filled with lots of activities and work to do, at least for me. I shall not list them all out here because it's just impossible to be able to finish listing them all, so why bother? o.O I just recovered from fever, apparently it wasn't that serious as i manage to detect it and curb it on time. Now what's left seems to be my slight cold and cough which seems to drag on to the third day already. I can't help falling sick with so many people falling sick - my lack of sleep simply just adds on to the probability by lowering my body resistance to a minimum. -.-
It just feels great when i survived training on Tuesday with slight fever, after much intense pressure from coach shouting "快! 快!" I managed a time of 1 minute 20 seconds which broke my fastest record by 8 seconds! What a miracle! :) That really kept my mood high for the rest of the day, despite my fever - those that i talk to will know. :P And i survived the week, amazingly! :) It never fails to amaze me how i manage to scrape through a lot of stuff. I'm not being egoistic here - i'm just lucky not to get into any trouble. Phew. :) Oh and i saw this quote today during GP lecture (amazingly i was listening :P);
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. -Albert Einstein I find it so relevant and true to some matters. Well, it simply means i'm going insane, because i'm really doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. :) I've done some search on it, and it appears the quote is used with a negative connotation. It's all with the thought of, how can you get different results by doing the same thing over and over again? Here comes my question - why not? o.O I found some rare few articles going against the stand that you will never get different results by doing the same thing over and over again. On my search, i came across this quote from an unknown source;
Sometimes doing the same thing a second time when it hasn’t worked the first is indeed just foolish. But sometimes it’s shrewd. Wisdom consists, in part, in knowing the difference. Flexibility is a virtue. But in most matters, flexibility properly kicks in only after persistence has been given a fair chance.It's not like as if when you give things a second try, the circumstances would say exactly the same. There's no ceteris paribus assumption (econs) in real life, and circumstances DO change. Actually, it's actually just whether you find something worth it or not worth it to try again. That's where your supposedly wisdom comes into the picture. I guess that's enough talk. It's going to be like a discussion essay if i continue. :P For the don't know how many times, i'm sleeping at 4am again. -.-
Before you assume something can never turn out right just because of one particular incident, doesn't mean it will forever be like this. Why not give it a try again?Phobias.
