Quotes
Love is a minefield. You take a step and get blown to pieces, put yourself back together again and stupidly take another step. I guess that's human nature. It hurts so much to be alone that we'd all rather blow up than be single.
We have no say over the hand dealt us in life, but we do have a lot of control over how this hand is played. We are responsible for bringing out the meaning of our own lives in each moment that we live. Remember each moment happens only once and can never be retrieved again.
A man can fail many times, but he isn't a failure until he begins to blame somebody else.
He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever.
I have never met a man so ignorant that I couldn't learn something from him.
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.
All this will not be finished in the first 100 days. Nor will it be finished in the first 1,000 days, nor in the life of this Administration, nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.
Friendship
The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart.
It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.
Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.
If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile. But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me
The best kind of friend is the one you could sit on a porch with, never saying a word, and walk away feeling like that was the best conversation you've had.
A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be.

Today may possible be one of the very best days of my life.
Came early to 108 to shoot some hoops with Alvin. Didn't get to play much, two big groups were already there, and when they left, it started to rain. Went to school to play. I really love Basketball. It brightens up my day. Or week, for this matter. Bought for Alvin a FBT jersey and pants for his birthday. Sleeveless jerseys rock! Played a new game called 21. Damn fun, includes almost every important aspect of the game. MrChin came to play, and like always, he owned=_=". Went off at about 1.45pm, onwards to Mac. Met Daniel, Zhongwei and those PECs who went for sports quiz, and we got 3rd among 27schools! All of us changed, met more ppl and off to bugis to celebrate his early birthday=D! The real day is on Monday=p. Due to my carelessness, my plan to eat Sakae Sushi's all you can eat student meal was ruined because it's not available on weekends. Stupid me. We all ate there anyway.
NEVER going back there without a parent. Subtotal was $66.50, with a 10% surcharge and a 7% GST= $77. Heck, those numbers were scary. 17% of the bill was unused. Good Service Tax amounted to them just clearing the table and serving the food. Heck, I should get a Good Manners Rebate for saying thank you all the time. Even if i did wait 30 WHOLE MINUTES FOR SOME STUPID CHICKEN which was delicious^^.
Went back to 108, played the best ball of my life. Pardon my Bball slang=p, I mean the very best games ever. The best was the very last match I played before going home. It was a match against ppl from Mr Chin's church group, Kenneth, Reggie, and two other guys. And yeah, those two named ones were way taller than me=). Man, Me and Aaron(my primary school friend) were so focused during the game! Possibly the most focused game we ever played. It was 3v4, me and Aaron and someone else=p, against Kenneth Reggie and one sec1 and one sec2=p. Even tho yeah we did have the advantage in the way that the two lower secs didn't have much experience, but hey, not only were the two named ones were tall, but both are skillful and have LOADS of experience. We won! To be fair, Kenneth was an extreme sharp shooter, but today he was wearing jeans and slippers. The score was 11-10. I know if he was in proper attire and another two proper teammates they could've won, but then we would also have to have one more team mate of our choosing =D. Just so happy that we won! If we lost at that level of focus, man would we be upset. We would be so upset it would be as if we found out that we have to go back a secondary school level next year.
Read a book a good friend of mine brought today. Yup, it's about basketball=D.
If losing hurts enough to make you want to practice more, then you are a PLAYER.
Practice is repetition.
Kinda forgot the rest. Borrowing it next week. Did some thinking myself too. What was difference between today when I'm really focused in playing ball, and on normal days when I don't want to lose. That was it. There is a difference between playing to win and playing to not lose. Sometimes when I play, I see these tall guys and think to myself: No way am I gonna lose to these guys. Then I make reckless shots, stupid passes, and lose the game. But today, I saw these guys that I never played with for oh so long, and I really wanted to win. That was the difference. What I just don't get is, both times I play with people who are taller than me, what exactly was the difference? This is all what I could come up with: I don't want to lose to these guys, and we want, and can win these guys. I don't really quite get the simplicity of it, but hey. I have plenty of time to figure it out.
1 on 1 basketball isn't all about
Who has more power
Who has more speed
Who is the better shooter
Who is taller
Who's feelin' it today
Or generally,
Who is on form and who's not
Who has a bad shooting day
It's about who has
the mental capacity to defeat your opponent in a way only you can.
"I can't shoot today, bettwer find another way to win."
"This guy's weak on his left. Fake right, go left."
"Posture's too low. Shoot!"
When it comes down to it, it all depends on the person who knows how to use what he's got. That's what 1 on 1 basketball is all about. Mental Capacity. At least, that's what it is to me.
