OVERLOAD

Apr 29, 2008 8:50 PM

I've been having quite a hectic schedule lately. Except for Monday and Thursday, school usually starts from 8am in the morning and ends about 5pm. To make things worst I've Basketball training on every Monday and Wednesday from 5pm to 8pm and Chess Club on every Friday from 1.30pm to 4pm. Plus I've got my own Basketball training on every Saturday morning and I've got to work on Sunday to earn my allowance. As you can see I'm beginning to get overload when I've just received a news that I'll be having a swimming lesson every Tuesday as it is a must to know how to swim. And for your information I'm not a MACHINE!

Basketball training is starting to get tougher every training. First training was a piece of cake for me though I suffered from serious muscles strain for the past few days. The second training was tougher than the first. I was on the verge of giving up when I asked myself why those fat ass and those pathetic thin bamboo can pull it through and why can't I? Everyone's having a hard time training including those aces in the school team so how in the world am I going to make it into the school team when I'm giving up so easily? Anyway, it rain for a short while during training and to our surprise some of us saw a ray of rainbow after the rain. Somehow maybe it's telling us that if there's no pain there'll be no gain. The training may be tough but what awaits for us is a rainbow.

As for the Chess club it's actually split into 2 groups. The Chinese Chess and Wei Qi. As you guys knows that I'm able to play both Chinese Chess and Wei Qi. So I'm somehow stuck in between them. I'm being asked to join the Wei Qi Club for the first training and as I'm more experience than most of them, the captain and the ex-chairman asked me if I could teach and guide some of them. Unfortunately, I'm not really a good teacher but I'll still try my best to guide them along. As I would like to play for the Chinese Chess Club too but I'm only able to turn up in only one of the club at a time so the ex-chairman told me that they'll hold a meeting and discuss about my problem. I really hope they'll come up with a conclusion soon.





CCA is starting next week!

Apr 17, 2008 11:16 PM

I've got to attend my school's Basketball CCA next Wednesday and I really afraid that I can't make it into school team. I really wish to join Jia Wei and others in the school team but somehow I got a feeling that I'm not gonna make it in. There's so much stronger players who can play better than me. So I really don't know how am I going to make it into the school team. I really hope that history will not repeat. I hope that I'm not going to give up half way like what I did during my secondary school life. I don't want to have any more regrets but how in the world am I going to find such strong determination and perseverance to pull through those tough training?

I'm sad to say that I lost most of my skills in playing chess. I can no longer move the pieces as swiftly across the board like how I used to. Like how I once move those pieces across the board as if they were my own hands and legs. I regretted for neglecting my passion for chess. Chess and Basketball are my source of confidence and I can't believe I lost something so important. I shouldn't have given up on Chess as I know that Chess hasn't given up on me. When will I get back what I've lost? When will I once again be allowed to enter the Chess world? I've let those who have high hopes on me down again. Someone please tell me how should I re-summon back those skills of mine again. What should I do in order to be stronger than before? Chess club is starting next Friday and I've got only a week to get back what once actually belong to me.

please don't leave me...
come back...
as I really need you...
like never before...

Though it's just the second day of school but I've managed to make some friends in my college. I guess I'm just simply too cute to be resisted. I'm actually pretty surprise to find out that some of my classmates are actually staying pretty close to me. Singapore is indeed a small country isn't it?

I'm really looking forward to school tomorrow. The real lesson starts tomorrow and I wonder how it feels to study in ite. Will it be as boring as secondary school or will it be much more fun? I was trying to act like some cool guy in my class. Someone who's always serious and quiet but I guess I blew my cover today. I accidentally reveal my true self in front of my classmates! Darn it.

Anyway, I've chosen Chess club and Basketball as my CCA. Everyone came asking me why I've chosen Chess club as one of my CCA. Well... Chess is my passion. I really hope that I can be someone really well known and respected in the Chess club instead of being a nobody. Same goes for Basketball, I hope that I can withstand the stressful training and make it into the school team.





The world is full of sorrow today

Apr 5, 2008 1:16 AM

Sorry for not being to update my blog that frequently like I used to as I've been having a pretty tight schedule lately. Anyway I came across this poetry and I find it pretty meaningful so I would really like to share it with you guys.

The world is full of sorrow today
The smiles of yesterdays have vanished
The tears of millions can fill the oceans
The walls and groans are loud enough
To be heard in another planet
Joy, where have you gone?
Laughter, where have you fled?
Why must mankind suffer like this?
Why must the world be full of sorrow?

Nature's angry because of man's evil deeds
His evil knows no bounds, Bad karma is wrought
So floods, earthquakes, fires and drought
Occur almost every day somewhere in the world
Like clockwork, killing countless innocents
Destroying their homes and property
While widespread epidemics and pestilence
In the train of these natural disasters
Punish those who survive - how horrid?

Yes, sorrow is created form man to man
Who asked him to be mad - mad for power?
Who asked him to crave - crave for riches, sex?
Who asked him to desire - desire for blood?
Who asked him to be jealous - jealous for love?
Madness for power leads to war
Craving for riches, sex results in crime
Desire for blood court certain death
Jealous in love bring unhappiness
renounce, detach, desire no more to do
Evil, purify your thoughts and do
Good, then the whole world will be full of joy
