Won my 1st cap. 3rd SINGLES. ALmost fainted. line up was 1st & 2nd singles(respectively) : Nic Teng, Shuo Li. 1st doubles: darren,timtanlt. 2nd doubles: han shen, nic tan. man i was dam nervous. paiseh to say this but i lost 9-1. dam shit. many unforced errors. and those stupid cat high umpires. i coula lost 9-4. cos there were 3 sudden death when they overruled saying the ball is out when it was dam obviously in. even linesmen( ah teng and yexun/yehan dunno which 1) said so. then they kept overruling. nincompoops. sea gherkin. pighead. and i honestly felt i coulda beaten dat guy. i was hitting pretty well in the warmup then sigh dunno la... i was a bundle of nerves ( as said by coach) if not i would have won. sigh...but wad to do? and nic tan is playing pretty well. and so's han shen =). sigh...i feel that i let a lot of ppl down...especially myself. but i wasnt blamed for losing la cos i din really train in singles. i was applauded by the whole team actually( though i dun think i really deserved it) for fighting to the very end, bravery to go out there and challenge the fella and the nv say die attitude. dunno la. we got a match left against st patrick's. will i play? dunno. probably not. after how i played today. thx to those who have shown faith(esp han shen) that i will play. but i think i disappointed everyone with the very 1 chance i had. sigh...

Whacked VS 4-1 2day. Han Shen lost 1st singles his match and was really angry and frustrated with himself. dat guy also not say very pro. i think han shen was juz nervous. any other time i tell u han shen sure own one. that guy apparantly has beaten tan lai tian in spex b4 though. so hes the best player in VS. with all due respect to them(VS ppl), i think they all erm...(no other word liao) suck. ah teng won(as expected). nic tan and jian yi won. JUST. 9-8. the other doubles pair was dam lousy. its lk they can't even hit properly. we shd haf won 9-1 or 9-2 or smth. but we still won so nvm. wah biang(Jiang) said dat if i had been playing in dat doubles we would haf owned =). finding some very gd form now. juz not fit to play a long match yet. too bad coach isnt ard to see how well and consistent i play now. sigh... and i realise han shen is a really gd fren. i mean he was going to speak to coach about playing me on monday cos i deserved to play even though the doubles did well 2day =) thx! but since he lost he said he is in no position to tell coach anth. but he still went to tell. saying wad u know? he wanted to be taken out because he said he din deserve to play cos he played badly. asked coach to play me cos i deserve the place more than him at the moment and erm... at times certain ppl.so coach said he will think abt it. but whether i play or not, i think han shen's thought is wad counts. not whether i play( but its still impt la of course but i wouldnt want to play at the expense of such a great player). was quite touched by this actually...i mean how many ppl would juz go right up to coach and ask him to play another person cos he deserves it more than him? frens like dat are very hard to come by... and i realise he's not the only who feels dat i shd play in the starting 7 permanantly( with due respect to everyone)...a number of others too but i shan't name any. so thx han shen! juz for the thought. its the thought that counts =) anyw i figured liao la... if i dun play then ok lor... changing coach soon anyway. i juz play well in front of the new one. i know wad i can do and thats the most important thing. and someone actually said i'm better than han shen!!!!! and im lk "hello??????did u get me and him mixed up????? hes much much better!!!!" so i hope i get to play on monday.i'm quite boosted and inspi(red)(haha) by wad those ppl told me... and i'm gonna join spex training soon. hope can get into darren, tim tan lt and shuo li's grp. but they r lk very gd?
right so sbt sch day. i saw yap shinn for the very 1st time. u guys r right he was a rather comical face. and he's pretty friendly and a good teacher. very relaxed his lesson. and jaya seriously lost A LOT of weight. shes like quite thin now. i saw her this morning when she asked me to put something up on the notice board. and gave me a bar of chocolate too =). then art was lk funny also. my portrait of hui yao looks like some ex-convict XD haha its a gd drawing(nt said by me but other ppl) but it does nt look lk hui yao. HAHA.
someone's been erm...not sure wad to use here erm... "off" lately...

Vomitted during training. muz b the food in the canteen.or maybe the horrible food at the chinese restaurant yesterday. was playing pretty well until i felt nausaeus( dunno got spell correctly or not but nvm la). then i felt like dat kind of airsickness. shucks. hope i dun get sick and not play in tournament. 2day only 8 ppl( tournament ppl) went for training. and the net broke. cannot b fixed. pro la play against acsi with a collapsed net. so i only managed to vomit after training. anyw i hope i still play. jian yi, nic tan and i will b rotating. tmrs training muz b perfect. no illness/ sickness(wadever). no loss of form which = to really on form.
and thx to all those who have shown faith(which is erm han shen, nic tan ) in me dat i'll play for comp even in my very off spells. really appreciate the encouragement.
anyw someone tagged dat this is turning into a tennis and emo blog well it's not. khooyap came into class today and we were all lk "wad????". so she explained dat she was going to be teaching us for a final 2 wks until her fren comes. and then she started giving out cards to ppl who replied to her smb message.
wonder how our sci(this term dunno chem or bio) teacher is lk but i heard frm hui yao he's a nice guy. very crappy.

comp nxt wed... but will i play? dunno why i cant seem to play at my best when coach is around. but i think i deserve to play ard 1 or 2 matches. thx to han shen for having great faith in me that i'll play. but dunno la. coach says my shots are better than nic tan BUT he's more consistent. so i think nic tan will play.but i really dunno. i hope i'll play. but anyway c'mon nic! win it! supposing i dun play, i think i've done myself proud, from someone who was happy to just be able to hit a ball to apparantly someone who's forehand is like fernando gozalez( thx han shen, really encouraging!). mayb the sec 2 version.
well so anyway yesterday went out with most of the tennis team to sakura at toa payoh. quite fun, ate so muchhh! and guess wad? SOMEONE was late AGAIN. came when we were finishing. COACH.

yesterday's training was much better than monday's. bt wah jiang and feng juin 4-2 in doubles vs singles though with 15-0 advantage. then me and jian yi played doubles with darren and han shen. was losing 3-1 when coach ask jian yi to sub with nic tan. lost the nxt 2 but we put up a gd fight :) i hit 5 winners in this match and 4 in the earlier one so dat makes 9 winners yesterday. so then coach took me off and wanted to tok to me. then he say wad i am the most hardworking and motivated(to win) player. but i nd to be more consistent and watch the back movement( means move back to adjust to deep balls better). play like how i idid yest. so he asked me abt han shen. i wont say wad he asked me here or how i answered here.

Wad is the meaning of this? perfect weather and no training!!!! sigh... i got lesser trainings to improve my form. supposing i dun play it would b because of bad form recently. sigh...

Bad day... really bad day. play dam lousy. super off. dunno why. every ball goes into net or out. xian. better play better tomorrow. coach say he going to rotate me nic tan and jianyi. better play properly. BETTER. COME ON TIM. I CAN DO IT.
i dunno why i din play well 2day. was it pressure? i think i'll start private again. yea, dat sounds lk a gd idea.

I can hover cards. serious. and i din learn it frm physics of magic. learnt it myself. i saw through most of the tricks taught by Hui Yao's band seniors. erm dun think it was the best of tricks. and i know how to do the coin bite, note change and erm i'm still thinking abt the card through window from ellusionist. the hover cards one is a dam cheap trick. but i won't reveal it. must be professional. now i'm thinking " why was i so impressed by it?". physics of magic teaches really cheap tricks, except for spoon bending. i think i might juz go into magic. like tan yu quan. yup dats wad u think i'll do. and i'll not tell ppl my tricks. even best of frens. so i can perfrom properly and ppl will really think it is magic. yea. i shd.
anyway 2day timtanlt, jian yi and han shen came to my house to play tennis. dam fun.played dam well. i think. then we play royal rumble a few times then play doubles. timtan pair with jian yi and i pair with han shen. was losing 2-0 but cam frm behind to win 2-4. yay. they came to play cos coach cancelled training again cos he "could not get the courts".

Sabbatikalsh week jusht started. Phyisics of magic is generally quite ok( though yu quan thinks it's bogus cos they do public revelation). The tricks are not bad, at least i kneo how to bend a spoon XD and on Friday we suppose to do a small magic show with at least 2 tricks( 1 card and one physics{dunno wad a physics trick is}). Already prepared the card one but the physics one, not so sure.
Training this wk and next wk is on everyday...Sigh. but today coach could not book his courts so yea no training.
My tagboard was alive for a while but it's now dead again.
PPL TAG MORE!!!

Very emotional day 2day. KhooYap's last lesson. and we din even complete it. cos jeffery lim interupted 1/2 way and ask us go KKH for some important thing. So we all quickly(or rather nicholas tan) went to the com to show the ppt slides and gave her the BIG cards.
right so the announcement at KKH was to tell us that got super good A level results(2 ppl with 10 distinctions leh) and everyone can go home from there. and co cca. so the whole hall or "YAY" lor.
nick tan, jing kai and i went to see khooyap after that and guess wad? she was crying! din really expect dat. i suppose she was touched and sad to leave us. so we chatted with her for a while then she gave us some cookies and told me and nick tan to work hard and Jing Kai to hand in hw regularly. and she said i was a nice boy too =) and i just realise Jing Kai is quite a sentimental person as in u know he told khooyap " no matter how good ur fren is, she can never replace u because u have been with us for more than a year and u were quite close to our class and u understand us very well. i still remember the 1st lesson at the com lab then we all type the funny maths thing". and jing kai told me a touching story afterwards about how he made the last card for a teacher in pri sch dat was retiring. so touching. and dat was why he was quite into the card for khooyap. din know he was such a sentimental person. =)
well anyway i felt like crying la when we were talking to her and afterwards also. sigh...

It's been raining for a whole day now
Freezing.
KhooYap just confirmed our suspicions today that she was going to be leaving us next term. she's been hinting it the whole week saying"aiyah only a few more lessons only then i will be gone" when people complained about the 4 period maths.but when u ask her, she doesn't want to say one.until 2day. walked into class and asked " u want to hear long story or short story"? so obviously we chose the long story(but she completed in it 10 mins XD) and she told us Chan-Lam's husband,who was director of boarding sch, was changing job and Lee Khen Seng(sec 4 maths teacher frm ortus) was taking his place. so khooyap was choosen to take his place to teach the ortus sec 4s. cos she was the only solely sec 2 teacher around and the other levels require experienced teachers and all dat. sigh. shes a good teacher u know. like hui yao said, those ortus guys are dam lucky to haf her as maths teacher. even though her lessons were kinda boring but she was still a gd teacher. but at least she bothered to look for her fren frm other sch to come and take her place instead of leaving us with the trainees. phew. if dat had happened my maths die liao.wonder wad her fren is lk... i guess u nv know how gd ur teachers are until u lose them...and jaya also told us that next term the NIE trainees will be teaching us for a while, u know like on course for dunno how long, mayb a term? and jennifer ting also not teaching us liao cos nxt term no more bio(pronounced bye-orh).i'm gonna miss all 3 esp jaya(for her sarcasm and funny and relaxed but still-get-things-done kind of lessons) and khoo yap(for her useful ways for remembering maths formulas. remb TLZF. 2G07 ppl should know. and her lessons also dam crappy and got chinese, english and singlish 2gether one.(though it's can get boring at times))
and then there's bio module exam tmr. scared. spent the whole afternoon mugging and i'm going back to mugging right after this post. so xian...wonder how i'll do...
