argh. my knee is killing me now. it hurts. big time! i can't even sit with my left knee bent. must straighten it out then the pain will go away.
that aside, today was damn fun. went out with those slacker brothers. watched pirates of the caribbean at vivo city. met liang hao, justin, wai kit and jun liang at mac. then jm haven't turn up. so we got worried. called him and he's still at home. he read justin's sms wrongly. meeting at 11.30. he thought it was 12 plus. good game. 1.30pm movie starts. he reached tampines at 12.30 i think. then we chionged for the train.
met josh at outram park and went to vivo to meet ky. ky got project with his classmates. overall, the movie was nice although half the time i was damn confused. cause i nv watched the previous movie, so don't really know what this movie is about. but one part of it was damn fun. the part where chow yun fat first appeared, all the brothers exclaimed "welcome to singapore" even before he did. hahahahahaha. spastic.
after the movie and during the credits part, ky told us again that there's a scene right after the credits. hahahahahahaha. too bad. if he's wrong, annabelle won't be there to bodyslam him, so he said that if his wrong, he will blanjar us starbucks. hahahahahahaha. so we all prayed, for a different purpose and goal.
but too bad, ky was right. there goes our starbucks treat. walked around for awhile more then went to suntec city for its it fair. went in for less than 10 minutes and got the hell out. its so darn crowded. u will get stepped over until u die if u ever fall down. went for dinner somewhere beside esplanade.
after that? we went for lan! ky didn't go cause today was his bro's birthday, so he go celebrate with his bro. played dota. jm, me and josh vs justin and jun liang while liang hao went off himself for some window shopping as he don't play lan. for game, its jm's lightning revenant, josh's vengeful spirit and my venomancer vs justin's dwarven sniper and jun liang's medusa. hahahahaha. our team won! although my score wasn't the highest, i got the top frag! 9 kills and 0 deaths. hahahahahahaha. just got lucky cause i'm still a noob. played melee later on. seriously, i'm a noob for this. lowest score. hahahahahaha.
went home after that. reached tampines and decided to eat something first. so went to mac again and slacked. after that home sweet home.
haix, my knee still hurts. what should i do? i really wanna amputate it at times sia. its hindering me. for bball, for dragonboat and for any other things. no matter what i do physically, i must think for my knee first. haix. damn it.

photos for this post. the photos are abit old. but to me, they are treasures. fun time in ncc. still miss those days. got all these photos from russell, one of the elites that i trained. hahahahaha. surprisingly, he told me he still misses the psychotic physical trainings i used to give my elite team. and on top of that, he said that he will gladly accept the training with a big smile. well, after seeing what he typed, i kinda feel proud of myself. at least all my efforts didn't go down the drain.
first up, the so called "happy hours" during ncc trainings. normally, ky will be the victim but in this case, its the cadets. hahahahahahahaha. i think this is the only time that ky isn't our victim.
that's dong gay posing for a shot while the others are torturing the cadets.
victim number 8, jason kwa. lol.
as for now, its photos taken during my last day of trainings. so my team of elites decided that we should keep some memories for ourselves. those brotherhood that were forged during the trainings.
showcasing my all star elite team.
one of our usual training grounds.
acting gay.
once again, the fat boy kenny.
elites, mount the bar.
torturing me.
payback time for throwing me earlier on.
pumpings are still not enough to cool me down.
hahahahahahahaha. ncc cadets can be gayish too.
one last present for them before i step down.
hahahahaha. our asm with the part c. ky was holding the pace stick.
.jpg)
erm, its not my idea to ask my elites to point middle finger at the camera. lol. lauzh is trying to be sleeping beauty and fong yuan ke totally destroyed the photo.
ncc land. how can we sit on the ground with berets on? too bad. look who's there? mr rudy.
year 2005. the year when benny lau was the usm. no wonder ncc nv did well. unlike lky, pushed ncc to silver.
the seniors are gaying.
think thats all. meeting ky they all and i think i'm running late.

being the senior isn't always a good thing, cause ur juniors always like to challenge u. this is one good example.
the 2nd generation of elite team with their trainer, me. the 1st generation was made up of ky, zh, elvis, jun liang, matin and me with shamir as our trainer.
they were trying to poke me.

back! just met up with ky, jm, jj and justin. went down to dunman and accompany jm awhile. he's conducting ncc trainings there mah. whereas ky was in dunman to take stock for his ltc camp together with vanda. so we three were there, each with different objectives but a common goal, to meet up with one another. hahahahaha.
jm stayed for the training while ky and i went off to meet the others. while going out of the sch, saw justin. really brothers, he nv called us and knew straight away where to find us. not bad. good chemistry and bond. then went to tampines interchange to meet up with jun jie.
slacked at mac and discussed the venue for dinner. then finalised on cafe cartel. hahahahaha. walked around tm and cs first. updated on each others' life and had our usual dose of gl-ing. today, our group attracted quite alot of attention due to the plaster on ky's nose. he fell down during training and hurt his nose. those buggers on the streets, in tm and cs find it very attractive and funny and couldn't resist looking at ky. damn u all lah. nv see ppl injured before arh? and some childish buggers still can laugh. dumb asses.
well, ate the meat lovers meal with ky. each of us had one. walao. alot leh. got pork chop, chicken chop and one big fat sausage. while waiting, my jiao wei reach full blast mode as i targeted at my crap at my master. too bad. his temper too good. but its fun lah, alot of crap. not gl. seriously, i curbed my gl-ness in tp. don't wanna gl my classmates, so unleashed then while i'm with my brothers, ppl who can take all my craps and gl-ing.
did alot of spastic things like throwing the coins on the floor for a specific purpose. lol. then was paying the bills. justin always pays his part nia. and fork out his money according to his rightful amount. due to this, we were short on money cause there was still gst to calculate. so i decided to gl him by saying," giving another $2 to pay for the gst will cause all ur pubic hair to drop is it?" hahahahahahahaha. damn guai lan. but it worked. justin forked out another $2.
after settling the bills, we went to slacked around tm and cs. justin went to buy some games then we went to times to freeload abit. by this time, ky was already freaking pissed with all the attention he's getting. so i suggested that why don't we split the attention load by having all four of us with plasters on our faces? lol. ky of course agreed to it. justin and jun jie were reluctant at first. but after some persuading. they agreed on it. so we went to the toilet. got our plasters from ky as he bought one whole box of it. sticked them onto our faces and walked around tm with the plasters on our face and trying to look fierce. u all should see the faces on those ppls' face. shocked. stunned. u see lots of different expressions. hahahahahahahaha. we are spastics buggers.
well, all good thing must come to an end. its time to go home, parted and went home. but nvm, we'll meet up again sometime soon.
anyway, nth much about sch. just that i had a bball session with my classmates during our 3 hours break on wednesday. comments, not bad. we have 2 sharpshooters. i'm not one of them. but just they wait, i'll beat them soon. played 4 on 4. nv keep track of the score. but i think my team was leading. eventhough i was not a sharpshooter, i still had other weapons, my speed, jumping ability, passing and driving skills, blah blah blah. i was everywhere on the court according to my classmates. had 5 steals, 1 block and grabbed 60% of all the rebounds. lol, at one point, after i grabbed a rebound and landed, 4 of the opponents were marking me. lol. we were playing 4 on 4. and 4 of my opponents were marking me. thats the whole team leh. lol.
played team match for less than one hour or so. lol. then we played 2 on 2. i with one friend against the 2 sharpshooters. well, my team won. hahahahahaha. my teammate and i shut them down. wahahahahahaha.
ok lah. think thats all liao. if not too wordy, ppl will complain. hahahahaha.
its been 3 years since i last saw u,
i wonder if u still remember me after what happened.

5 more minutes to a new day. will be having 2 tests on that new day. one online microsoft excel test and one expository essay to write. hahahahahaha. pray that i will do well bah.
well, as for today. went to play bball with justin and kjm. starting from today, the quest to be a good shooting guard starts. hope i'll succeed. its abit weird today. the basketball court was damn empty. only the 3 of us with some other small kids there. where are all the other ppl?
played a warm up match. 2 on 1. default settings. me on them. didn't keep track of the scores. but obviously i lost like crap. cause i wasn't playing, i was fooling around and laughing at justin. lol. after that match, i did some shoot around. my target was to make 100 shots. but i stopped at shot number 21 cause jm wanted to play team match with some sec 2 guy from dunman sec. at the point in time, i only made 7 shots. so percentage was 33%. imagine if this continues, i will need to attempt 300 shots to make 100 shots. nice one lah. one word summarise my shooting skills. and thats none other than "noob".
so its 2 on 2. erm. kjm and me vs justin and that sec 2 guy. my team lost. 11-10. don't get the wrong idea. the guy didn't do much, i shut him down. gave him 2 blocks as presents. justin did quite alot. furthermore, i was fooling around, just kept on passing jm the ball for assists.
after that, the dunman kiddo's friend arrived. so i just stepped aside and let the grandmaster and grand disciple team do the thrashing. justin and jm vs the two friends. at first, they were losing 4-1. but i told them what to do, then things slowly started to pick up. justin is getting along fine with his center pos. at least now he knows what to do liao. they won 11-8. nice one.
after the match, i went back into the court to do some shoot around while jm and justin rested. that dunman kiddo issued a one on one challenge to me. lol. seriously, i was stunned. i thought that he was very confident on winning me. results? 7-2. hey hey hey. i didn't lose. i thrashed him. erm, i simply just shut him down. denied his entry to the paint and forced him to take tough shots. on offense? i simply just drive in and lay up lor. managed to trick him with my fakes. not bad.
last match of they day. its by luck. o-beh-som mah. 3 on 2. justin and jm vs me and the couple. lol. i didn't attack much, just pass them the ball lor. let the young ones play while i sharpened my passing skills. eventually, we lost track of the score.
so after that, reset game and started tracking. this time round, i played seriously. manage to limit justin to 1 or 2 points nia. but lost track of the points soon. so played sudden death. whichever team that scores first wins. jm scored. my team lost. lol. but nvm lah. its still a nice match. seriously, i think justin, jm and i will make a very unlikely team.
anyway, updates on sat. when out at night to meet up with ky and jm. ky and i met up first while waiting for jm to knock off from work. well, jm got the job. i didn't. damn suay. no comments. anyway, kjm was dethroned by ky. jm was having his usual dose of jiao weis, so here is the scenario. jm just knocked off from work, alot of jiao weis to say, so he kept on talking, but one sentence from ky is enough to catch all my attention and heck whatever jm was talking about. what did ky said? well. he simply said that he told his mum that he's maybe going to try for temasek poly's august intake. lol. this sentence made me listen to ky attentively. jm went totally stunned.
ate supper together. then went to buy vodka again. then walked to our usual place. the playground near annabelle's home and talk cock. waited for annabelle to reach there from her sch. she had concert performance mah. after that went home liao. meeting up with ky and justin this week for movie. hahahahahaha. nice one lah. sec sch brothers still rock man. they are way way way nicer than my poly friends. my brothers are more nicely tuned to my jiao weis. more or less same frequency. not channel 10 jiu dui liao. ncc brothers should get my meaning.
think thats all liao, later on still got test. will need alot of my brain juice. hope my brain muscles won't cramp. hahahahahaha. seriously speaking, is there anything call brain muscles having cramps? lol.
i'm gonna form a band call "rubber band".
well, as for today. went to play bball with justin and kjm. starting from today, the quest to be a good shooting guard starts. hope i'll succeed. its abit weird today. the basketball court was damn empty. only the 3 of us with some other small kids there. where are all the other ppl?

hmmmmm, back for a short post i guess. am having a really hard time finding articles regarding environmental awareness and issues. need those informations to do my expository writing test for my comm skills module. super sianned. last time still got teachers like mr vijay to provide us with info. now must find info myself. maybe will asked mrs vijay for the articles if she still has it.
anyway, went for job interview with jm today. its at sitel pte ltd. the telecomm service provider for mac delivery. lol. had an interview. something tells me that i won't get the job. i hope i'm wrong. well. jm got it.
reason number one for not getting the job. my pass jobs did not interact with customers, so i lack the experience in that. and since alot of ppl with alot of job experience went for the interview. reason number 2, i think they won't hire friends. afraid that they will slack together. and as compared to jm, he has more experience with customers since he worked as a waiter before. so, i guess my chances are very very slim. hmmmmm. i still think i needed the job. i'm tired of taking allowance from my parents. time to grow up.
today is quite a big day for we 3 brothers. ky, jm and i. well. all the 3 of us have interviews. jm and i had job interview. as for ky? i shall not leak that secret out yet. jm and i decided to stop going for dragonboat trainings and concentrate with our own commitments. jm wants to go for the basic airborne course next year. so he's training up. as for me? i still dream of being a good shooting guard. if its possible, be my area's best shooting guard. well. i think its sort of impossible.
but at least, jm and i at least can get our ass down to train for basketball as we both had interest in it. what post should i train jm for? i'm thinking of power forward. but then again, i think small forward should be quite fun for him also. but first up, we need to do conditionings. jumping, stamina, speed, quickness and blah blah blah. all those physical training. at our own pace. maybe will take ky's dragonboat logsheet and photocopy them out then follow them week by week.
as for myself? do more dribbling drills. my dribbling is way too noob for a guard. do more shooting. how can i be called a shooting guard when i'm not a factor from far distance? improve on my slightly above average driving skills. and learn to have more court vision and make accurate passes. a deadly combination for a guard. lol.
3 brothers. 3 different goals. ky wanna be pro dragonboater. jm wanna be airborne. i wanna be an outstanding shooting guard. these goals don't click. but at least. we can train together. that's the fun part.

woah woah woah. this post is meaningful. its my 100th post. =) i'm back after one week. yeah. had dragonboat physical training today. and god damn it. i can't really raise my hands now. lol.
friday was fun. went to watch spiderman 3. its damn cool. sandman and venom vs spiderman and green goblin. result? both venom and green goblin died. lol. mini spoiler here. its nice to meet up with justin, jun jie and annabelle after so long together with ky and jm. still. everyone was damn xia lan. annabelle wasn't herself on that day. wasn't cheerful at all. but that didn't stop me from gl-ing her. ky said something and she asked, "really meh?" i replied her by telling her, "u can bodyslam ky if it ain't true." lol. gl. had vodka with ky and jm. 8%. each a bottle. jm's face was so red lor. i strongly believe that if he stood by the roadside. some of the cars will surely stop. lol. anyway, to belle. don't care what the others say. try ur best and do ur best. give ur everything. if they still say u. nvm. u did your best. u have no regrets.
ok. went for the dragonboat orientation fun row on sat. lol. its really fun row. everyone had fun. jm and i still, were full of crap on that day. had a mini race. jm said that if our boat got first, he'll treat me to drink. as for me? i wanted to motivate him, and i said that if we won, i'll buy him a nokia n95. lol. i still owe kjm a micro-sd memory card. lol. i suaned him by saying if he can change his phone the next day, i'll buy him one memory card. lol. bad news at first, we were leading. i was shocked. but good news in the end, we finished second. that saved me about 1k. lol.
after the row, went to meet up with brothers for awhile. had lunch with ky and jm. the went home. this part. damn dulan. kena tuar by my mum. one fine day, she walked over to me and asked.
mum: boy ah, sat hor, got one dinner for celebrating mothers' day. got aircon. the table cost $300. wanna go?
*me thinking that its for mothers' day sake. replied yes.*
and what did i get that night? hell yeah. we went to some community centre. had dinner in the hall. nice one lah. and that place is damn near to justin's house. walao. nice one lah. tuar me. and my cousin went too. totally sianned.
sunday did nth much. stayed home. did abit of my web design project and watched slam dunk anime. yeah yeah yeah. its an old anime. but to me, it has a totally different purpose. its this anime that made me played bball. its this anime that made me continue bball even when i had a knee injury. and now, when my confidence was fading. this anime revived me.
and this is why, i went for today's dragonboat training. my original plan was to use the dragonboat training to build up my physical aspect. then i fulltime train bball on my own with kjm. resume my conquest to be a good shooting guard. but. i think really cannot sia.
the dragonboat training is hell. and its currently at level 1 only. this wednesday is level 2. lol. ok. went there, did warming up followed by 70 pumpings.and ran the bedok reservior one round. 4.3 km. not bad. they wanted 3 rows only. and no more rows. i mean 3 rows of ppl running. but, due to the fact that my knee won't take it if i run too long. i made a 4th row myself. ran awhile with that 4th row before jm reminded me and i formed back. seriously, i not boosting. the pace was slow. and the strain of my leg was longer than i expected.
500m to the finishing line. my leg gave way. i'm not tired at all. i wasn't really panting. but my knee has no strength now. sianned. what pissed me off was that jm and i started as the last 10 ppl in the whole team. at the point when i stopped, we were like in the first one fifth of the team. there's 100 plus almost 200 ppl there. siannned. rested awhile. asked jm to continue running. waited for my knee to regain some strength and then pia-ed. lol, this was the funny part. jm chionged pass a senior who was running, jm's speed shocked him. he scolded some profanities. before he could stop, i chionged pass him too. so the profanities onslaught continued. not bad. when we ended, we were like in the middle of the ranking. not bad.
went back with my knee still not stable yet. did pumpings, again. 60 this time. counter check. total pumpings done are 130 now. movement slow. another 20. counter raise to 150 liao. then got break.
did circuit. here's the procedures. first, 10 sit ups. then run something like 50m. thirdly, 10 burpees. don't know spelling correct ot wrong. then run another close to 50m. then 15 pumpings and another 50m. good one lah. did 2 sets. so total pumpings counter is now 180 liao.
5 minutes break. then 5 sets of 5 chin ups. total 25 chin ups. no kick. i thought was the end liao. cause my knee seriously need to rest. but! for the big finale, we need to do 100 pumpings. total counter? 280 pumpings. i think we just cleared ky's nyjc one week's training logsheet for pumpings in 3 hours. haix. and during this big finale, something pissed me off. my knee started to cramp and can't pump. i was holding my knee. one freaking senior, stood there and shouted at me. told me not to slack. if i want to slack, go home. ok. i got up and tried to continue. my knee was feeling numb now. his onslaught continued. i almost stood up and shouted at him.
hey dude, its not like i don't wanna do yah? i won't give up so easily. at least back then. but u think i wanna rest. my knee has an injury. u think u are strong, u can scream at ppl? can't u use ur brain that was malfunctioning at that moment and see that i'm in pain? i bet u don't. cause i don't have a freaking useless left knee. and seriously, if u can still do pumpings nicely after i walloped ur left knee up with a hammer. u are god. at least i tried.
i'm pissed off now. my knee is useless. even now as i'm typing. it still feels abit numb. damn it lah. why will things like this happen to me? haix. i'm wondering if i should go on with dragonboat? physical appeal or knee? haix.
anyway, training ended. jm and i dragged our foot to 7-11. lol. had a stomache. went toilet and then pia-ed taxi home. gave jm $10 to take that taxi to his house. well, tml he has sch at 8am because of a test. and its like 10.30pm liao. so better let him reach home as fast as possible. after all, i still owe him a favour. he blanjared me breakfast after prom last year when he himself was broke. i won't forget kindness, i think.
anyway, got home. had a hard time bathing. wanna used the com and got pissed off again. seriously, my bro is damn bo liao. i ask u ppl. u have a thumbdrive with 8gb space. u have all the songs u would like to backup in it liao. its enough right? why the heck send those songs and their album arts to ur email for backup? si beh bo liao. if thats the case, don't waste ur money and buy that zen microphoto. and if u really are so afraid of losing those files, i teach u a even more brilliant method. save those files in cd roms, dvd roms, blue ray discs, external hard disks, memory cards like mmc card or micro-sd lah and even cassette tapes lah! wakao. want to send to all ur friends for save keeping or not. hit 2 birds with one stone. they can listen to your nice songs and you can have them save keeping those files for u. walao. get a life lah. i not gl-ing u here. i just want u to use ur time more wisely.
one final thing before i go off. hmmmmm. ky got into nyjc and was bullied by his class. my classmates gl me. good one arh? don't think u ppl can have things ur way all the time. lol. cause when we blow up. its hell. at least in terms of suaning.
this was what happened today.
*my classmates and i were in the toilet. he wanna spike his hair with my wax*
classmate: eh, how come u today wear cap?
me: me arh? change different image lor. don't always same image. if one day nv spike. will look abit weird.
classmate: but u think u look very cool in cap arh? lol. joking joking.
here's another one.
* my ex colleague in noel. the qc. the ugly one was in my class. i told my classmates.*
classmate: she ur gf arh? omg.
me: -_-'''
*so this went on and on. until she knows it*
hey ppl. i go tp don't gl u all. is not because i afraid of you all hor. i don't want to suan ppl nia. this is the last week u all taste victory. from next week onwards, it'll be mine all the way. so enjoy arh? =)
anyway, conclusion for dragonboat in tp. they don't look for diamond ores to polish like nyjc. they want to polish only diamonds. sianned. jiao weis by jm and i were true. damn it.
i'm off to slp i think. but abit of slam dunk won't kill. lol. damn my knee. wearing cap again tml. no strenght to spike my hair.
do you feel like a man when you push her around?
friday was fun. went to watch spiderman 3. its damn cool. sandman and venom vs spiderman and green goblin. result? both venom and green goblin died. lol. mini spoiler here. its nice to meet up with justin, jun jie and annabelle after so long together with ky and jm. still. everyone was damn xia lan. annabelle wasn't herself on that day. wasn't cheerful at all. but that didn't stop me from gl-ing her. ky said something and she asked, "really meh?" i replied her by telling her, "u can bodyslam ky if it ain't true." lol. gl. had vodka with ky and jm. 8%. each a bottle. jm's face was so red lor. i strongly believe that if he stood by the roadside. some of the cars will surely stop. lol. anyway, to belle. don't care what the others say. try ur best and do ur best. give ur everything. if they still say u. nvm. u did your best. u have no regrets.
ok. went for the dragonboat orientation fun row on sat. lol. its really fun row. everyone had fun. jm and i still, were full of crap on that day. had a mini race. jm said that if our boat got first, he'll treat me to drink. as for me? i wanted to motivate him, and i said that if we won, i'll buy him a nokia n95. lol. i still owe kjm a micro-sd memory card. lol. i suaned him by saying if he can change his phone the next day, i'll buy him one memory card. lol. bad news at first, we were leading. i was shocked. but good news in the end, we finished second. that saved me about 1k. lol.
after the row, went to meet up with brothers for awhile. had lunch with ky and jm. the went home. this part. damn dulan. kena tuar by my mum. one fine day, she walked over to me and asked.
mum: boy ah, sat hor, got one dinner for celebrating mothers' day. got aircon. the table cost $300. wanna go?
*me thinking that its for mothers' day sake. replied yes.*
and what did i get that night? hell yeah. we went to some community centre. had dinner in the hall. nice one lah. and that place is damn near to justin's house. walao. nice one lah. tuar me. and my cousin went too. totally sianned.
sunday did nth much. stayed home. did abit of my web design project and watched slam dunk anime. yeah yeah yeah. its an old anime. but to me, it has a totally different purpose. its this anime that made me played bball. its this anime that made me continue bball even when i had a knee injury. and now, when my confidence was fading. this anime revived me.
and this is why, i went for today's dragonboat training. my original plan was to use the dragonboat training to build up my physical aspect. then i fulltime train bball on my own with kjm. resume my conquest to be a good shooting guard. but. i think really cannot sia.

Monday, May 07, 2007
i'm back. went for the selections in the end. played with a sore thumb given to me by ky and a slight fever. took one flu pill and went out.
on the way there. i knew i'm such a gone case. i was blur all the way. cannot feel any intensity in me. if i managed to get into the team. it will be a miracle. but still. i believe that there's still hope.
met up with rc and walked in together. reached there. saw alot of ppl going for the selections also. most of them seems to play for their secondary sch or ite before. i knew my chance of getting in will be damn slim given my condition. talked to rc and knew that mr tan jing yang is the coach for the tp bball team. ok, here comes the pressure lor. i nv thought that mr tan will be tp's coach. also, tp was the champion team. means their standard will be very high.
from then on. i know i'm out for sure. but i told myself. don't give up when you haven't even try. even u know you will be out. give in your best. or at least try. yeah. so i stayed throughout. mr tan wanted us to do some drills.
erm, didn't do them quite well. so yah. from then on. i know i'm off. no more miracles. i can't run as fast. my knee was hurting. i can't do lay up. my master hand's thumb was sored. i got a slight fever. haix.
after the drills. mr tan wanted us to play team match. i teamed up with some strangers. erm. play 3 points. once a team had 2 points. they won. played first round. i took the first shot. air ball. win liao lor. cannot even perform. haix. had a steal. but that's not enough to prove anything. my team won. my teammates scored the 2 points.
second match. i teamed up with another set of strangers to play with my first round teammates. yeah. my teammates went to me. i missed all my three shots. haix. i cannot focus. i don't know why. gave my opponent a block. but that too, wasn't enough to prove anything cause my team lost 2-0.
so yah. i didn't make it at the end of the day. out of so many ppl who went. mr tan only needed 15 players. seriously. those who were chosen were really good. they played for their secondary sch before. i didn't. someone who didn't played for any team and going there to try out is already considered thick skin.
i don't blame my condition. cause seriously, if u are really a good player. no matter what the situation is, u can still at least perform. from this, the bottomline is. i'm not a good and consistent player. and i seriously don't deserve a place in the team. so now, i can stop dreaming of playing for tp. and find other ccas.
this calls for a reflection. i need to train up. winning games against some puny streetballers ain't anything to be proud of. being in a champion team is. so i consider myself a loser.
think thats all. hope i will be fine tml. pls, let me recover tml.

think thats all. hope i will be fine tml. pls, let me recover tml.
time check. its 4.34pm according to my computer. the bball selection is almost 1 and a half hour away. should i go?
i'm down with flu and feeling abit feverish. had no strength, will i perform well? i told rc this. he said that its hard to play when u are not feeling well. i agree 100% to it. my mum asked me to stay home and rest. but if i don't go, will i regret?
i still got the most 1 hour to decide. must leave my house by 5.30pm. how?
why am i so suay? sick on the day of selection. maybe its hinting me not to go? sianned. i can't think straight now. i'm freaking tired after sch. been resisting the flu bug since morning.
for the pass few hours, i've been telling myself not to go since i'm sick. but the competitive side of me will tell me that, michael jordan and allen iverson both played and won games when they were down with sickness. and they both performed very well. but then again, i'm not michael jordan nor allen iverson. i'm jeremy lim. i'm nth. not a nba superstar.
its like the angelic side of me debating with the demonic side of me now. which side will triumph? haix. we'll know after 6pm.
but what scares me the most is, if i went for the selection and didn't make it for the team. can i take it? will i be able to swallow it? many will say that i'm sick. its alright if i can't perform when i'm sick. but still. knowing myself well enough. i will not be able to take it.
to go or not to go? someone tell me. if i'm going, i need to rest now. if i'm not. i can just take my clothes and go bathe now.

hmmmm. sch's starting again. two weeks passed since poly started. all seems fine. i'm enjoying my life in poly. sort of had a clique now. 7 boys. no girls. lol. even ky was attracted by poly life. lol.
there's a proposal for a project for web design. must be handed in by week 6. but at the end of week 2. i've finished almost half of it. gonna ask my tutor's opinion on my proposal.
anyway, there will be a basketball selection tml. should i go? or should i just miss it? will i regret it if i miss it? or will i back out when i'm in the team just like what i did when i'm in dunman? can my knee take the physical stress of the sports?
what is a basketball team all about? this question is still a mystery. at least to me. is it winning together? or is it about getting players together just to play a match and maybe winning it? is it all about winning? or is the process of trying to win even more important? if the process of trying to win is more important, then is it really ok to lose and don't reflect? is one man show more effective or teamwork more effective? what makes a good basketball team? how do you change a low rating bball team into a contender team? does training really help? or is it all about talents and potential? does potential has limit?
seriously, i am still pondering over whether i should go for the selection or not. what if i'm out straightaway? can i take it? what if i'm in and the basketball coach expects alot from me? i don't know anything about formations, can i make it in the team? i like freestyle more than formation, i like doing whatever i like in life and in bball. am i seriously a good choice for the team? will i make a good player in the team?
i have until 4 pm tml to think about it. the selection is at 6 i think. and my lessons end at 4. i still have the choice of providing my service to tp bball team. should i go? if i don't go and join the bball team. then there's 2 more choice for me. dragonboat or music vox.
dragonboat is more hiong than bball. requires alot of running. looking at the state of ky and waikit. it really makes me think thrice. ky and waikit had no problems with their leg last time. but after they joined dragonboat. both of them had leg injuries and need to rest 2 weeks. i myself, already had a knee injury. will i survive there? mentally, i'm alright. i like challenges. but physically? yeah, my physical is not bad. got gold for napfa, 9th in annual cross country and so on. but the main worry is my knee. i'm physically tough but then again, my physical condition is not good. my knee is finally making slow improving in recovering. but it has not fully healed yet. haix. how? what should i do?
as for music vox. first up, i need a band to join. problem will be solved if joycelyn and her friend join up with jm, wei xiang and me. but still, there's an audition. and its damn close. i mean the date. can we really get together an perform nice enough to get in? seriously, i don't think so. its been like 3 weeks since i last touched my bass. jm haven't played his guitar for almost one year. joycelyn and her drummer friend are pro. there's a big gap between them and us. also, wei xiang, my ex colleague, i have no idea how well he is doing for his guitar. maybe he stopped playing already. maybe he haven't. and after the band is formed, who will be vocals and so on? how sure are we that we are going in the same direction as a band? heard from joycelyn that her drummer friend play a7x songs. jm and i are slower. will he accomodate with us by playing slower songs? there's a big gap in our skills. will they wait for jm and i to slowly inprove? that i don't know.
sian lah. basketball, dragonboat or music vox? haix. life is all about making choices. and which choice should i make? will i regret my choice in the future? that's a very tough question. i'm pro at self undoing and getting myself into deep shit. so how? should i just say, "huan loh, tml then worry?" or crack my brain figuring out what to do?
ok. lets try breaking it down logically. if i join basketball, what can i do with it in the future? play for singapore? xiao. even if i play for singapore, u think singapore will stand a chance in olympics? no way, those countries that enter olympics for bball have players that play bball fulltime as a job. in singapore, u need to train and work. which sucks. ok. but joining bball will make me stronger physically due to the trainings. so maybe i will do me good when i'm in the army. no need be corporal for life. but then again, if i wanna train myself physically to make life in the army easier. dragonboat should by right be the best choice. cause normally, ppl who was in the dragonboat team will face very few problems in the army in their physical aspects. they may even find army slack. also, after joining dragonboat. being a commando should be more easily acheiveable than joining basketball. as for music vox, what can it do? go famous like blink 182 and earn lots of money? come on bah. this is singapore, not usa. even in usa. many bands are struggling also i think. true, singapore have some famous bands. but they are only famous in the region. and do they earn alot? yeah, maybe they earn money, but i seriously don't think they earn alot. plus, how many bands in singapore did go famous?
and so it comes down to dragonboat. haix. no comments. shall see how bah. their introductory fun roll is on 11th or 12th may. go liao then see how lor.
cca aside, i'm kinda excited. will be getting the slam dunk anime's vcd from justin. been dying to watch it. lol. hanamichi sakuragi and hisashi mitsui. my fav. lol.
anyway, updates for now. nth much happened over the weekends, so nth to write. as for friday? met up with ky, justin and jm after sch for pool. hmmmmm. kinda fun bah. alot of crapping and jiao weis. then went back to tampines. was originally supposed to meet up with hui jing. but don't know y. nv met up. they went to eat dinner while i went home for dinner and to wait for them. they wanna play bball mah.
erm. at first ky did not feel like playing. so yah. its 2 on 1 time. this time. its not by default. meaning not justin and jm vs me. lol. its justin and me vs jm. won 7-0. ok lah. its a very smooth match. i just need to drive in, assist justin when i had the chance. justin scored 4 points and i had 3 points.
second round. jm and me vs justin. ok lah. my target for us was to keep justin below 2 points. and we did it. won 7-1. lol. not bad. did the same thing for this match. assist jm if i can. in the end, jm had 2 points and me with 5 i think.
third round. no need think also know is the default match up. ok lah. i was doing fine at first. had a draw with them at 3-3. ky joined in. became 3 vs 1. win liao lor. lost 7-4 i think. damn it. they used my strategy against me. kept passing and assisting one another. lol. but nice job there.
fourth round. i lost to them but could not accept it. so requested for another shot. erm. was really doing very fine at first. led the match 4-3. until ky had to hit my already injured thumb real hard. lol. lost 7-6. omg lor. sianned. i think jm is really improving liao. last time 3 on 1 also can win. now its quite difficult liao.
after that, justin went home. i taught jm how to box out and go for rebounds. and taught him how to really defend his opponent. ky and his showdown will be in 2 weeks time. lol. so far, jm has a clean losing record. so i think he really hope to win 1 game against ky. lol. chit chatted at the basketball court. did some shoot around. then they went home. and came out again to meet up at mac to ton.
i on the other hand cannot make it. so haix. stayed home lor.
think thats all liao lor. gonna slp soon. tml lessons start at 9am. and pls pls pls jeremy lim, pls remember to call the company and get details about the job. don't ever forget it, u this stm bugger. lol.
i hope i have a place in your heart too.
there's a proposal for a project for web design. must be handed in by week 6. but at the end of week 2. i've finished almost half of it. gonna ask my tutor's opinion on my proposal.
anyway, there will be a basketball selection tml. should i go? or should i just miss it? will i regret it if i miss it? or will i back out when i'm in the team just like what i did when i'm in dunman? can my knee take the physical stress of the sports?
what is a basketball team all about? this question is still a mystery. at least to me. is it winning together? or is it about getting players together just to play a match and maybe winning it? is it all about winning? or is the process of trying to win even more important? if the process of trying to win is more important, then is it really ok to lose and don't reflect? is one man show more effective or teamwork more effective? what makes a good basketball team? how do you change a low rating bball team into a contender team? does training really help? or is it all about talents and potential? does potential has limit?
seriously, i am still pondering over whether i should go for the selection or not. what if i'm out straightaway? can i take it? what if i'm in and the basketball coach expects alot from me? i don't know anything about formations, can i make it in the team? i like freestyle more than formation, i like doing whatever i like in life and in bball. am i seriously a good choice for the team? will i make a good player in the team?
i have until 4 pm tml to think about it. the selection is at 6 i think. and my lessons end at 4. i still have the choice of providing my service to tp bball team. should i go? if i don't go and join the bball team. then there's 2 more choice for me. dragonboat or music vox.
dragonboat is more hiong than bball. requires alot of running. looking at the state of ky and waikit. it really makes me think thrice. ky and waikit had no problems with their leg last time. but after they joined dragonboat. both of them had leg injuries and need to rest 2 weeks. i myself, already had a knee injury. will i survive there? mentally, i'm alright. i like challenges. but physically? yeah, my physical is not bad. got gold for napfa, 9th in annual cross country and so on. but the main worry is my knee. i'm physically tough but then again, my physical condition is not good. my knee is finally making slow improving in recovering. but it has not fully healed yet. haix. how? what should i do?
as for music vox. first up, i need a band to join. problem will be solved if joycelyn and her friend join up with jm, wei xiang and me. but still, there's an audition. and its damn close. i mean the date. can we really get together an perform nice enough to get in? seriously, i don't think so. its been like 3 weeks since i last touched my bass. jm haven't played his guitar for almost one year. joycelyn and her drummer friend are pro. there's a big gap between them and us. also, wei xiang, my ex colleague, i have no idea how well he is doing for his guitar. maybe he stopped playing already. maybe he haven't. and after the band is formed, who will be vocals and so on? how sure are we that we are going in the same direction as a band? heard from joycelyn that her drummer friend play a7x songs. jm and i are slower. will he accomodate with us by playing slower songs? there's a big gap in our skills. will they wait for jm and i to slowly inprove? that i don't know.
sian lah. basketball, dragonboat or music vox? haix. life is all about making choices. and which choice should i make? will i regret my choice in the future? that's a very tough question. i'm pro at self undoing and getting myself into deep shit. so how? should i just say, "huan loh, tml then worry?" or crack my brain figuring out what to do?
ok. lets try breaking it down logically. if i join basketball, what can i do with it in the future? play for singapore? xiao. even if i play for singapore, u think singapore will stand a chance in olympics? no way, those countries that enter olympics for bball have players that play bball fulltime as a job. in singapore, u need to train and work. which sucks. ok. but joining bball will make me stronger physically due to the trainings. so maybe i will do me good when i'm in the army. no need be corporal for life. but then again, if i wanna train myself physically to make life in the army easier. dragonboat should by right be the best choice. cause normally, ppl who was in the dragonboat team will face very few problems in the army in their physical aspects. they may even find army slack. also, after joining dragonboat. being a commando should be more easily acheiveable than joining basketball. as for music vox, what can it do? go famous like blink 182 and earn lots of money? come on bah. this is singapore, not usa. even in usa. many bands are struggling also i think. true, singapore have some famous bands. but they are only famous in the region. and do they earn alot? yeah, maybe they earn money, but i seriously don't think they earn alot. plus, how many bands in singapore did go famous?
and so it comes down to dragonboat. haix. no comments. shall see how bah. their introductory fun roll is on 11th or 12th may. go liao then see how lor.
cca aside, i'm kinda excited. will be getting the slam dunk anime's vcd from justin. been dying to watch it. lol. hanamichi sakuragi and hisashi mitsui. my fav. lol.
anyway, updates for now. nth much happened over the weekends, so nth to write. as for friday? met up with ky, justin and jm after sch for pool. hmmmmm. kinda fun bah. alot of crapping and jiao weis. then went back to tampines. was originally supposed to meet up with hui jing. but don't know y. nv met up. they went to eat dinner while i went home for dinner and to wait for them. they wanna play bball mah.
erm. at first ky did not feel like playing. so yah. its 2 on 1 time. this time. its not by default. meaning not justin and jm vs me. lol. its justin and me vs jm. won 7-0. ok lah. its a very smooth match. i just need to drive in, assist justin when i had the chance. justin scored 4 points and i had 3 points.
second round. jm and me vs justin. ok lah. my target for us was to keep justin below 2 points. and we did it. won 7-1. lol. not bad. did the same thing for this match. assist jm if i can. in the end, jm had 2 points and me with 5 i think.
third round. no need think also know is the default match up. ok lah. i was doing fine at first. had a draw with them at 3-3. ky joined in. became 3 vs 1. win liao lor. lost 7-4 i think. damn it. they used my strategy against me. kept passing and assisting one another. lol. but nice job there.
fourth round. i lost to them but could not accept it. so requested for another shot. erm. was really doing very fine at first. led the match 4-3. until ky had to hit my already injured thumb real hard. lol. lost 7-6. omg lor. sianned. i think jm is really improving liao. last time 3 on 1 also can win. now its quite difficult liao.
after that, justin went home. i taught jm how to box out and go for rebounds. and taught him how to really defend his opponent. ky and his showdown will be in 2 weeks time. lol. so far, jm has a clean losing record. so i think he really hope to win 1 game against ky. lol. chit chatted at the basketball court. did some shoot around. then they went home. and came out again to meet up at mac to ton.
i on the other hand cannot make it. so haix. stayed home lor.
think thats all liao lor. gonna slp soon. tml lessons start at 9am. and pls pls pls jeremy lim, pls remember to call the company and get details about the job. don't ever forget it, u this stm bugger. lol.
i hope i have a place in your heart too.

i can't get my ass down to slp. so decided to blog. hmmmm. nth much ytd bah. repaired my mp3. nv went for pool with them. but met up with jm and justin for bball.
well well well. one day after i felt so proud of our accomplishments. the tide turned. the grandmaster, master and disciple team didn't do well ytd.
played 4 games ytd. won the first one. and went on a three game slide after that. game 3 was the most embarrassing. well. kinda pissed with myself on my performance. i'm wondering why i'm kinda low on my scoring output these 2 days? i can't seem to hit my fade away jumpers and turnaround jumpers. cold period maybe? haix. when our team need some boost. i can't provide it. and i can't even manage the floor well. i can't run the play and can't dish out nice assists for my teammates. today, we didn't lost on skills. we lost on strategy and intensity.
game 1. 3 on 4. 4 strangers. erm. we won 11-9 i think. almost was unable to hold on to our 8-4 lead. ok. we were new to the other team. didn't quite know their playing style. so i hogged the ball for some moment. missed 3 shots. it kinda made them think that i will be taking the scoring load. i kept passing the ball to jm and justin for some easy shots. but they sort of figure out my tactic and decided to marked them more liao. so i drive the lane and confuse them a little bit. took advantage of their confusion to push to a 8-4 lead. i think they figure out that i'm the only one that can control the ball more freely and one of them decided to mark me full time. making the job of setting plays up and driving the lane tougher for me. to make it even tougher, they rotated the person marking me. meaning two of them will take turn in guarding me. smart play. trying to tired me out. they are good, stole my ball several times. the game was even out at 8-8.
decided to get a little bit more aggressive and scare them a little. went to the basket. scored. 9-8. went to justin and jm on various occassions. but didn't finished the play. my fault bah. nv pass them the ball quite nicely. plus justin nv run around, so the defence was stagnant. concentrated in the paint. i can't drive with 3 of my opponents in the paint. good thing jm helped to rotate abit. and we somehow managed to get the ball to justin by confusing his defender up. gave a block to my loyal defender. nice man. thought i only can drive, shoot and pass. give u one block right in the face arh. lol. and that's how we ended the game. 3 on 4. still can win. lol.
game 2, 7 points to win the game. its 3 on 3 from now on. lost something like 5-7? yah. remembered that its quite close. erm, this time alot of problems came up. first, i can't really score from far. second. jm was off. third, justin didn't used his size to our advantage. ok. first up, knowing that i can't shoot well, i need to change to other methods of scoring. and that's driving. but justin, having no ball sense, nv rotate and try to sort of disperse the concentrated defense in the paint. unable to drive, i shoot. miss alot of freaking shots. jm leh? i went to him for 3 pointers, can't get any one of them down. jia lat liao. everyone off. as for justin? went to him. he nv bang the shit out of his defender, instead twist here twist there. accuracy affected. hardly get a shot down. so i have to find some ways to get close to the basket, and thats to confuse my defender with my dribbling. and took some close range turnaround jumpers. good thing jm and justin grabbed some rebounds off my missed shot and converted them into some points.
defensively wise, we were abit laggy. they tricked us by scattering us around. and took us one to one. they went to our weaker side, justin. he just fell down. was damn tired. so they went to him. they don't really shoot against jm. he's ki xiao on defense. and when they miss, they can get another rebound and shoot from close range too. justin nv used his size against them. he's too tired. i'm most of the time further away from the board. so left jm jumping against them. we lost on rebounds. as the saying goes, control the rebounds and u control the game.
game 3. 7 points game. lost 7-0. well. no comments. i don't even feel like shooting properly and driving. just pass them the ball and let them take charge.same prob on offense. justin nv rotate. he's too tired, can't blame. defensively, we gave them open shot. didn't even make an effort to challenge every shot.
terrible lost. jm and i sort of scolded justin? not really scolded. but asked him to be aggressive. rotate abit. don't seh rebound but grab rebound. use his size. draw defense away from the paint. and make an effort to contest every shot.
game 4. 11 points game. lost 10-11. damn it. we did everything nicely. justin sort of fired up. used his size and bang the shit out of his defenders and those ppl going for rebounds. hahahahahahaha. our tactics work. our opponent were very cautious of driving now. so they shoot more. and by the way, their shooting sucks.
offensively, both jm and justin rotate. at first i gave them the ball. open shot for them. so they marked them more tightly now. so due to this, the paint was less concentrated. i had alot of opportunities to drive. this is our problem. i beat my defender in a one to one match up situation. but i can't take on 3. firstly, its damn tough. next, there's no way for me to move in the paint with so many ppl in there. with them using one on one marking. i drove to the hoop, made some shots. due to that, they focused on guarding me whenever i was driving. so left either jm or justin open. so i just need to give them the ball. wahahahahaha.
nice plan, everything went smoothly until jm tore his pants. lol. so jm can't run. no rotation. all they need to do is mark justin and me. and when they were on offense, they go to jm as he can't run and jump. so whenever one of us tries to fill in for jm, they pass to their teammate and 2 on 1 the leftover defender in the paint. nice one lah. so lose lor. if not can win.
think thats all, sch tml. gonna slp liao.
well well well. one day after i felt so proud of our accomplishments. the tide turned. the grandmaster, master and disciple team didn't do well ytd.

yeah! i'm back. well. there's things to be happy about, things to really reflect about, things to feel totally sianned about, things to be shocked about and maybe things to be proud about?. here i go. warning: this post may be boring.
first up. things to really be sianned about. know what? my mp3 went bonkers. reason number 1. the guidebook was so brief that it did not teach me how to set aside some capacity for usage as a removeable disk. my guidebook was so different from kjm's one as according to him. so i anyhow transfered some stupid files from the com in my sch's lab to my mp3. reason number 2. guess what? the sch was so budget. or maybe i'm just suay. my com was slower than the other's com. and it hang at the final moment. if i have the time, i will slowly take my time. switch of the com and then pull out my mp3. but the freaking prob is that the other class is coming in. bo bian. just pulled out my mp3, seh the com and get the hell out of there.
was so sianned at first, but brighten up later. happy go lucky. plus i got a secret weapon. and that's warranty. wahahahahaha. so don't huan loh. just relax. hahahahahaha.
after sch, met up with kjm. then walked all the way with him to my house. wanna check my mp3 and see if its working. while on the way, jm taught me how to use my mp3 the correct way. still, damn the book. got home, checked my mp3. its removeable disk worked normally. but not its mp3 function. its dead. lol. damn it. nvm. got warranty. lol. simply suay. my bro got mp3. same as mine. but his is functioning really properly.
now, things to reflect about. after i got home, walked around my house looking for my mum. there i saw here squatting in the toilet and washing it. all tired and worn out. she came out and asked me to take the laundry in for her. she's too tired to do it alone. and here's an extract of what we talked about while we were taking the laundry in together.
me: how come nv ask younger bro to do the job?
mum: haix, i did asked. but look at him, what is he doing? watching tv. i was looking forward for u to come home. only u will and can help me out. i don't depend on ur siblings. they don't help out. sometimes they don't even react.
a simple conversation, but it has alot of meanings. seriously, that made me reflect. is it because i'm the eldest son of the family that i have the responsibility to help out and face the pressure my parents' gave? or is it because that i'm the most dependable children among us?
is this the root to why my mum will always nag at me? is this the reason why my father treats me abit more unfairly, hoping that i understand the reason behind it? is this the reason why my dad would drag me into the room and have a private talk with me whenever he's going overseas? is this the reason why my mum is always so paranoid about me staying out late?
am i ready for the task? am i matured enough to take on this pressure and share my family's burden? i seriously don't know. they pin high hopes on me. not academically, but in the way i contribute to the family affairs. and one bad point about me. i always don't live up to people's expectations. i seriously don't know if i can do it or not.
things to be happy about? well. its simple. finally met up with josh like after one or two weeks? lol. its good to see another brother. pool session later. not sure whether if i will make it or not. running out of cash. and my mum's sort of hope that i stay home. see how bah.
had dinner together with ky, justin, jm, waikit and josh lor. and played basketball after that. was itching all over to play bball. fun time bah. waikit played one match and left.
so yah. first round. 3 on 2. justin and i vs josh, waikit and jm. ky didn't play. his leg pain. erm. justin and i won the match. sort of found out that i'm off for ytd. didn't really shoot the ball well. relied on justin for some points. but was quite hot defensively. lol. gave josh 3 blocks in the first match as a present.
after that, josh issued a one on one challenge with me. i lost lor. cannot blame. josh is a versatile player. lol. gave josh another block while he was trying to complete a lay up. in return, he gave me one too when i was driving down the lane for a lay up also. nice one lah! a very intensed match i should say. lost 7-6 i think.
played team match again after that. 2 on 2. hmmmmm. played 3 sets. is this 3 sets that made me feel quite proud bah. tried out something new. jm is getting more and more pro and experienced liao. not bad. his trainings do show results.
2 on 2. josh and i vs justin and jm. one sided match? no way. i'm an all star who was not offensively hot ytd. josh was as versatile as usual. justin is playing with more intensity. learnt to use his size to his advantage now. jm leh? he's a rising star. three point pro. can drive decently now. not bad.
first round. josh and i lost. 11-7. erm. in this match, its justin vs me in scoring. going against each other. jm did help justin out. he banged down one three pointer. took josh by surprised. josh helped by assisting me and grabbing rebounds. erm. strategy for first round. usual plan. i remained a ball hogger and tried to take tough shots or drive the lane despite the fact that i know i was cold on the field. missed alot of shots but hit some tough shots too. justin on the other hand gave us a scare by hitting a shot from halfcourt during his first attempt. lol. and he was very hot in the first round. josh and i were at our wits' end trying to stop him.
second round. its where i really feel proud of. lol. josh and i won. 11-6. this time round. i decided to change my tactics. i decided to assist josh. meaning that he will take the scoring load. i'll just find all sorts of ways to give him an open shot. no look pass and behind the back pass were some of the things i did. also. my plan was to take justin and jm by surprise as they will be thinking that i was still planning to hog over the ball. surprised them and confused them up a little. another plan was to wear justin out. he's marking me fulltime i think, so i made him run a little, wasted his energy by making him jump with my fake drive before i skipped the ball to josh for a more easier shot. not bad. my plan worked as plan. justin wasn't that hot in the second round liao.
here comes something that i'm personally feel damn song about. jm lead his side of the team in scoring. josh lead our team in the second round. its good to see ur teammate score. and even better to see ur disciple stepping up to the challenge. lol. second round was josh's and jm's battle. michael kwadon vs kowky bryant. lol. jm knocked down alot of shots with josh guarding him. he even gave josh a block sia. nice one man. should have videoed it down. josh reacted by giving jm a rejection also. wah man. nice. as for me? found the joy in passing the ball and gave jm and justin each a block. lol.
third round. decisive match. each team won 1 game liao. josh and i won. 11-4. reason being, as justin and jm got used to my strategy and focus more on guarding josh. i changed my strategy again. josh and i would split the scoring load. we will assist each other. i surprised them with a lay up first. and on the next possession, i passed the ball to josh for some sort of an open shot. also, we wore justin down. that's the main reason why we dominate the last game. jm tried his best to keep his team in the game. and scored 3 points i think. the other one came from justin. lol.
seriously, justin is playing more intensively now. using his body against me. lol. at one moment. he grabbed a lose ball. used his body to guard the ball by squatting down and i almost analed him. but anal denied. lol. i hit my little brother against his butt. damn. its painful ok? lol.
very fun night of basketball. think that i should pass more and shoot less or have a mix of these two to confuse my opponents. lol.
last part. the surprises. lol. good news and bad news. it depends on how u see it. well, here i go. last year's nba champion miami heat was eliminated from the playoffs in the first round by chicago bulls. woohoohoo. good job chicago bulls, i nv liked heat. =x
another news. western conference's top team, the dallas mavericks is facing a crisis of being eliminated from the first round also by the last seeded golden state warriors. wahahahahaha. if kena eliminated then fun arh. both of last year's nba finalists nv made it pass the first round.
last piece of news. my la lakers is on the brink of elimination also. lost to pheonix 3-1. walao. don't know got hope or not lor. hope kobe bryant can make miracles happen. afterall, he's being named the best player or ultimate scorer in the nba now by fellow nba player, carmelo anthony. an all star player from denver nuggets.
think thats all liao. changing or repairing mp3 later. lol. and damn. my knee hurts now. =(
听妈妈的话 别让她受伤
想快快长大 才能保护她
first up. things to really be sianned about. know what? my mp3 went bonkers. reason number 1. the guidebook was so brief that it did not teach me how to set aside some capacity for usage as a removeable disk. my guidebook was so different from kjm's one as according to him. so i anyhow transfered some stupid files from the com in my sch's lab to my mp3. reason number 2. guess what? the sch was so budget. or maybe i'm just suay. my com was slower than the other's com. and it hang at the final moment. if i have the time, i will slowly take my time. switch of the com and then pull out my mp3. but the freaking prob is that the other class is coming in. bo bian. just pulled out my mp3, seh the com and get the hell out of there.
was so sianned at first, but brighten up later. happy go lucky. plus i got a secret weapon. and that's warranty. wahahahahaha. so don't huan loh. just relax. hahahahahaha.
after sch, met up with kjm. then walked all the way with him to my house. wanna check my mp3 and see if its working. while on the way, jm taught me how to use my mp3 the correct way. still, damn the book. got home, checked my mp3. its removeable disk worked normally. but not its mp3 function. its dead. lol. damn it. nvm. got warranty. lol. simply suay. my bro got mp3. same as mine. but his is functioning really properly.
now, things to reflect about. after i got home, walked around my house looking for my mum. there i saw here squatting in the toilet and washing it. all tired and worn out. she came out and asked me to take the laundry in for her. she's too tired to do it alone. and here's an extract of what we talked about while we were taking the laundry in together.
me: how come nv ask younger bro to do the job?
mum: haix, i did asked. but look at him, what is he doing? watching tv. i was looking forward for u to come home. only u will and can help me out. i don't depend on ur siblings. they don't help out. sometimes they don't even react.
a simple conversation, but it has alot of meanings. seriously, that made me reflect. is it because i'm the eldest son of the family that i have the responsibility to help out and face the pressure my parents' gave? or is it because that i'm the most dependable children among us?
is this the root to why my mum will always nag at me? is this the reason why my father treats me abit more unfairly, hoping that i understand the reason behind it? is this the reason why my dad would drag me into the room and have a private talk with me whenever he's going overseas? is this the reason why my mum is always so paranoid about me staying out late?
am i ready for the task? am i matured enough to take on this pressure and share my family's burden? i seriously don't know. they pin high hopes on me. not academically, but in the way i contribute to the family affairs. and one bad point about me. i always don't live up to people's expectations. i seriously don't know if i can do it or not.
things to be happy about? well. its simple. finally met up with josh like after one or two weeks? lol. its good to see another brother. pool session later. not sure whether if i will make it or not. running out of cash. and my mum's sort of hope that i stay home. see how bah.
had dinner together with ky, justin, jm, waikit and josh lor. and played basketball after that. was itching all over to play bball. fun time bah. waikit played one match and left.
so yah. first round. 3 on 2. justin and i vs josh, waikit and jm. ky didn't play. his leg pain. erm. justin and i won the match. sort of found out that i'm off for ytd. didn't really shoot the ball well. relied on justin for some points. but was quite hot defensively. lol. gave josh 3 blocks in the first match as a present.
after that, josh issued a one on one challenge with me. i lost lor. cannot blame. josh is a versatile player. lol. gave josh another block while he was trying to complete a lay up. in return, he gave me one too when i was driving down the lane for a lay up also. nice one lah! a very intensed match i should say. lost 7-6 i think.
played team match again after that. 2 on 2. hmmmmm. played 3 sets. is this 3 sets that made me feel quite proud bah. tried out something new. jm is getting more and more pro and experienced liao. not bad. his trainings do show results.
2 on 2. josh and i vs justin and jm. one sided match? no way. i'm an all star who was not offensively hot ytd. josh was as versatile as usual. justin is playing with more intensity. learnt to use his size to his advantage now. jm leh? he's a rising star. three point pro. can drive decently now. not bad.
first round. josh and i lost. 11-7. erm. in this match, its justin vs me in scoring. going against each other. jm did help justin out. he banged down one three pointer. took josh by surprised. josh helped by assisting me and grabbing rebounds. erm. strategy for first round. usual plan. i remained a ball hogger and tried to take tough shots or drive the lane despite the fact that i know i was cold on the field. missed alot of shots but hit some tough shots too. justin on the other hand gave us a scare by hitting a shot from halfcourt during his first attempt. lol. and he was very hot in the first round. josh and i were at our wits' end trying to stop him.
second round. its where i really feel proud of. lol. josh and i won. 11-6. this time round. i decided to change my tactics. i decided to assist josh. meaning that he will take the scoring load. i'll just find all sorts of ways to give him an open shot. no look pass and behind the back pass were some of the things i did. also. my plan was to take justin and jm by surprise as they will be thinking that i was still planning to hog over the ball. surprised them and confused them up a little. another plan was to wear justin out. he's marking me fulltime i think, so i made him run a little, wasted his energy by making him jump with my fake drive before i skipped the ball to josh for a more easier shot. not bad. my plan worked as plan. justin wasn't that hot in the second round liao.
here comes something that i'm personally feel damn song about. jm lead his side of the team in scoring. josh lead our team in the second round. its good to see ur teammate score. and even better to see ur disciple stepping up to the challenge. lol. second round was josh's and jm's battle. michael kwadon vs kowky bryant. lol. jm knocked down alot of shots with josh guarding him. he even gave josh a block sia. nice one man. should have videoed it down. josh reacted by giving jm a rejection also. wah man. nice. as for me? found the joy in passing the ball and gave jm and justin each a block. lol.
third round. decisive match. each team won 1 game liao. josh and i won. 11-4. reason being, as justin and jm got used to my strategy and focus more on guarding josh. i changed my strategy again. josh and i would split the scoring load. we will assist each other. i surprised them with a lay up first. and on the next possession, i passed the ball to josh for some sort of an open shot. also, we wore justin down. that's the main reason why we dominate the last game. jm tried his best to keep his team in the game. and scored 3 points i think. the other one came from justin. lol.
seriously, justin is playing more intensively now. using his body against me. lol. at one moment. he grabbed a lose ball. used his body to guard the ball by squatting down and i almost analed him. but anal denied. lol. i hit my little brother against his butt. damn. its painful ok? lol.
very fun night of basketball. think that i should pass more and shoot less or have a mix of these two to confuse my opponents. lol.
last part. the surprises. lol. good news and bad news. it depends on how u see it. well, here i go. last year's nba champion miami heat was eliminated from the playoffs in the first round by chicago bulls. woohoohoo. good job chicago bulls, i nv liked heat. =x
another news. western conference's top team, the dallas mavericks is facing a crisis of being eliminated from the first round also by the last seeded golden state warriors. wahahahahaha. if kena eliminated then fun arh. both of last year's nba finalists nv made it pass the first round.
last piece of news. my la lakers is on the brink of elimination also. lost to pheonix 3-1. walao. don't know got hope or not lor. hope kobe bryant can make miracles happen. afterall, he's being named the best player or ultimate scorer in the nba now by fellow nba player, carmelo anthony. an all star player from denver nuggets.
think thats all liao. changing or repairing mp3 later. lol. and damn. my knee hurts now. =(
