passion stuggle.

todays. game.

1st half was kinda like messy.wasn't any flow, chucking of balls. and no proper drills.
2nd half was much better in terms of defence and 3men punch.

overall. the team agreed that it was a better game. i still feel that we can do like 3 times better to be practial la. i hope we can be like 10x 50x or even 100x better till club standard or smth. ref was highly closed eye to our team already. coz we're always offside. defence line. we could actually like be onside and move up leh. so much oppportunities missed.

on my part. i think i'm still slow at splitting and my ball speed and power is weak. 3 men punch cannot aim at same gap. sidestep too close to opponent so always kenna touched. could have broken throgh 1 gap today, but they came on. bah.
AND. i had a DROP BALL. but i think i ran faster than i usualy do today. smths gd. haha.
and u know wad. thanks to ballet and God's mercy, my knee ar. NO PAIN TODAY K. really dunno how but yea. my guard was neatly packed into my bag.

score 1-15. haha.
we'd scored a try! whee. by angie who is our senior.
honestly, its really her consistant support and encouragement that guided us thorughout the whole thing. really. i know she's tired deep inside, but still, she fought on, pressed on and really did not give up on us at any point. i really wanna thank her and salute her for that.

but one thing made me kinda frustrated for awhile is the darn lack of sense of urgency and the wanting to improve. ok. i mayb be judging here. by why do some give me reasons to say such stuff. like come on, get the ball and stop strolling pls. stop strolling to be onside. stop strolling to be on position. honestly. if rugby is juz another cca for u to get seal points and play-play, get out. then we can train more during trngs. pls ar. if u want to improve and do so. u dun juz improve like that. like wad aisyah said. if u want a better game. u gotta strat from training. basic basic basic. u can't jus be on the field and expect to be gd.sry if i'm judging. but that's how i feel.


but ok la. at least all of us still make a point to set aside our sats for this league. i really hope that we'll hit alll 3 goals solidly and not just-another-match kinda thing.

but rmbr. play and our own pace. and really enjoy the game of touch.


after that. went to the other side of the field to watch contact. blacks vs bucks. bdiv06 looked faster and more scary. haha. maybe its the atmosphere? but was cool to see andrew, daniel, nigel, jesse, pax, victor, abel and all playing together. haha. kind of a large range of age group though.
btw, thanks drew for being my first witness! hahaha. (:
oh yea. we got our jerserys! yay. #32. hahas.

next wk, same place. timing should be the same i guess..
but u know wad.
next wk, i'll be missing the team on mon, thurs, and sat. a wk w/o rugby. agm, bowling league(last block) and church respectively. hurhur.

wanted to go watch fireworks coz i wanted to try out my photography skills. then some needed to go home, go out with bfs and all. then went home with nic. hahaha. wasted can. france last day right.


bowling and rugby.
2 v different sports.
reason for bowling, its coz i'm experienced in that area, been in it for like almost 5 yrs, relaxing, social, train to be focused and mentally stronger and still. haha. trains u to be stronger in terms of physical strength..and there's alot more stuff to learn. ultimately, i love bowling.. that sense of satisfcation when the ball hits the pocket and all 10 pins flushed down, and then u're back, happy to have had contributed to the team. u can't get that kind of individual joy in rugby.

reasons for rugby. man. its like fast, smth to so driven. so much emotions and pushes u on and on. u're nv like uh-bored kinda thing on the field. lots of action and running and sun! then u need ppl. so u need to encourage to spur to drive to push. u need support hungry for that try. its always the unexpected, unlike bowiling which is a routine sport. it keeps u fit and improves stamina. and like, u're always wanting a level up. (mayb its coz i'm in bowling for quite long) lastly, its also that same passion of wanting to hit ur goal correctly and be proud of it at the end of the day. the team thinks like one, and must wrk together as one.

ok. so yea.
my passion struggle. common sense tells u that if u wanna excel, focus on one. i'm quite sure i'll be in this 2 ccas. but after i graduate, i'm also quite sure i'm goona go futher in these 2 sports. for bowling, one aim is to at least represent singapore beyond the shores. for rugby, to be fast and maybe try out smth at a higher level.


ok.
amongst all these. i cannot forget to get gold for my academics too. haha. havent been training much in that field of study hahah.
my (hmmmm.) prelimary rounds for academincs is in 3 wks now. haha. i'd better start trng. haha. if not, it'll be quite a worrying period for mr. sam. haha.
i shall rest today and start-start-pls,-really start tmr. then i can go out tmr.

amongst all these trngs, exposure and especially when pol-ite and ivp games are coming, thank u for praying. and thank u grace, ytd for praying for me during cell. God gets the greatest glory. no doubt abt it. w/o Him, there really would be like, nothing.
