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.

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.

Hm. Haven't blogged in a while=P. I think. Oh well. Let's start from wednesday, shall we?

Wednesday
Volleyball in the morn. Played friendly matches against hillgrove? Won 1, lost 3. We won the final set at quite a good score, 25-14. First set was horrible, we lost 15-25. second set was also around the same standard? 20-25. Third set we deuced a bit. lost 26-28. Was quite upset with myself. I didn't get to play my position for the last set, and we won. I worked really hard to get where I am now, but it justs shows it's not enough. After that, went to macpherson cc to play badminton. It was raining heavily so didn't get to play basketball =(. She came=). I played badminton till my knee was bruised and my wrist was strained abit. lol. The rain lightened, and i went home. That is all.

Thursday
Stayed at home the whole day cuz it rained in the morn. Slacked around the whole day. played com, eat, played com, lie down watch tv, play ds, go eat dinner, play ds, sleep. Was pretty much contemplating the whole day whether should I pack my books or what=p. haha. So much for doing something resourceful.

Friday
Volleyball in the morn. Played against fairfield methodist. Shit, I kept making the same mistake, so I played like shit. Lost against them. played 2 sets, then I get called upon to play for the C boys because their setters didn't come ==". Won 2 lost 2. I didn't do as bad, but that's as expected, it was gainst C boys too=='. I did more mistakes tho. Argh. After that went to shower. only showered my head tho. Great for cooling off. Then went to the 3on3 tournament that we signed up for=p. Me alvin and daryl =D.

First match played quite badly. lost 23-9. Against zhong hua, dai heng and zi han. The sec4 gods of basketball=p. Second half they could switch to fresh people, so I guess that's why we lost.

Second match was against joseph max and gary. She came at around this time =D. Won by a two basket margin? 14-10?

Third match I kinda got mad at daryl. We could've won, I counted on him, but he failed me. Granted, he was my friend, and I shouldn't have blew up to him like that. But then again, he shouldn't have come up to me saying we weren't in their league or they were better than us or something. No shitting way. I know we could've won. All they got is their outside range, which we could pay back with daryl's three. Inside they woud be useless bags of nuts with alvin around. I could steal the ball from two of them and get past them easily for crying out loud ==". What we lost at, was at our outside shooting, which you prided yourself on. Ironic, no? Haiz. Don't say that le. In any case, I'm sorry daryl, if you're reading this, I shouldn't have lost my temper on you like that. Really sorry dude. I just want to win that badly.

Fourth match of the round robin ( only 5 teams went), was against the organizers, so to say. We won by 1point =D! Glee! Close, nailbiting game. Alot of rough play ensued, and I felt bad about the guy I attacked at and marked, so after the game I went up and apologized to him.

We made it into the semi finals=D! But just as luck would have it, we were up against undefeated zhonghua's group. I talked to myself over and over again, that I can win. I will win. I have the ability to. And such self motivating phrases. Ended the half at quite a close score. 5-7 or something. I was feeling good. I told daryl and alvin to keep up what we were doing. The thing is, I really hunkered down and went all out, so I was abit fatigued. They were able to sub ==". And they rough played all the way, so I couldn't really do as well. Second half, they exploded. Two 3 pointers. and we couldn't catch up. Score ended at 8-18. I was so disappointed. Both at myself and them. I mean, they have the skill and strength and speed to win us without having to FOUL us most of the time, right? I was disappointed at myself because I didn't have the ability to fight through that difficult period. I really did all I could, but clearly it wasn't enough.

Final match, it was me and joseph's team fighting for third. Against joseph, ivan, and gary. It was a very slow start. Neither of us scored the first few possesions. Gary even blocked my first ball! Doesn't matter, I tapped his ball back later on in the game! Scored ended at the half a 5-5 i think or a 6-6 or something. Second half was literally a hard fought, nail biting dog fight. I was too slow, too tired. And yet, I felt someone, pushing, cheering me on. I wanted to stop running, but I know I couldn't. not if I want to win. Am I glad she was there =). We kept attacking one another, making sure the other doesn't score, until our score reached 10-10, with about 30 seconds left? I had upset myself again. I wasn't steady enough to make the winning shot, leaving 10 seconds left. I was tuckered out, I was too slow, I couldn't mark ivan. He got past me, and went for that layup. I was literally at my end, given up all hope because I didn't think he would miss. Or that daryl, the untimely hero of the match, would make that timely good foul. Ivan missed the shot, he gets one free throw with no time remaining. But then, even then, I was too tired to even think, I thought we had lost. I squatted down, with my head facing the floor, just hoping, just praying he would miss. I didn't dare to look up at the ball to see if it went in. I know ivan can, and will make the shot. What I didn't know was, that he didn't think he could. The sound of the ball hitting off the rim and onto the floor was heard. I jumped up and yelled in joy. We still had a chance. I had possesion of the ball. Obviously, I wasn't thinking clearly. I drive right to the basket and went for a shot, but I missed. I rushed it. They caught the ball. I put my all into that very last ball. I made sure I did my job. That my man wouldn't score on my watch. They missed, we rebounded. I cleared the ball, and was dribbling and thinking what to do. Then i saw daryl went behind me, and he was free. his man was right infornt of me, together with my man. I faked a shot, but passed to the back. Daryl took the shot for 3 points.

I swear. Time as we knew it, slowed down as I saw the ball float in the air towards the direction to the basket. I looked at darly; he had that look in his eye. I looked at the ball, I thought it would miss, it had the proper lift, angle but the direction was wrong. *Swish* The ball went in! We won the game! I jumped up and yelled with joy and adrenaline. WE WON THE GAME! I jumped onto daryl's back saying we won=p. I was so happy. Daryl. He came through in the crunch.

And we were all dead tired. I layed down onto the concrete floor, gasping for breath. "We won" was what kept ringing in my head, as I smiled to myself. Sooner or later, the winner was decided, photos was taken, and everyone went home. As soon as I got home, I had a feast=p. And my whole body was aching.

I was really glad she came. I think, if she wasn't there, I don't think I could've done what I did. Everyone was rooting for the other team in the last match. Joseph, his sister and her friend and his girlfriend and her friend were rooting for him. Ivan had zhonghua's team rooting for him. Without her, whenever I scored, it wouldn't mean anything. I pushed myself to my limits and maybe even more. I continued on, not only because I loved the game, but because I knew that someone wants me to win, and I cannot and will not fail. I feel that I'm a guy who is very headstrong. I will take on whatever goes my way head on. Because there's someone who believes in me, so that I can believe in myself. Now, I have a reason to be more than my best at what I want to be.
