- Well Christmas was far over by now.. But I'll bring back some memories. first was the church play or rather musical I saw with KP, Wan Lin, Candice and also Kp's freind Sarah. Good.
Then Christmas made me realise some stuff.. Im really happy but also at the same time not too happy over th news which I realised. Poor thing You. Doesn't matter. Loads happened over christmas.. Don wanna recap now.
The week was packed. Three days of facil training. I realised I'm house head.. together with Trina in charge of Luminos. Other pple I know are Suf in charged of ember, Sarah and Khai Pin in charged of Inferno. The rest I can't remb. I realise Im with Nigel Goh as co-facil. U know at first i went like why him... He frm lectures is so full of shit and no self respect and stuff like that. That's my initial impression. Well he had a point to prove and boy am I surprised by him. He's quite good. He pays real serious attention to impt details, he is a good person reader I can tell and certainly im admiring most abt his courage, he dares to own up to mistakes and try to improve. I think my family is quite a weird mix of pple I wld say. Not that I have anything against aanyone.. just a real weird mix of pple frm differnet backgrounds. Not like Ember... no super siao, or Yi yong's incendium whom are quite fun to watch. we have jokers, workers, guai pple, really creative pple.. I dunno just a mix..
Facil trg was good. Several funny events did happen. Which I can't help but smile. Mass dance was a disaster fer me on the first day. Cldn't connect anything esp the banga one. I like the thriller dance.. Perhaps that's when I felt a lil more like cause in Banga Im w/o partner. Mass dancce is funny... seeing pple like Julia and Sarah dance with partners they wld rather not is appetising. Jon chan can really dancce and so did I think that Bryan can dance. Well We'll see on monday the performance how ah.
Second day was spent in kallang. Amazing race. Nutting much just tired tired tired that's all. But its good fun.. My grp I must say Im impressed cause When I say run.. most wld run.. That's good. I wanted badly to be first tho not much grps even bothered to complete the thing. Being first means a lot to me.. I only wanna be a winner and not lose a thing. My grp has quite some character and Im quite impressed with their perseverance despite some refusals on their part to run. Sometimes when im leading the run.. I know its kinda fast but no one gave up.. I like that attitude.
Thrid day... much of it was mass dance and discussion of identity.. I think Luminos' identities are all so cool.. We'll all rock man. Mass dance was much better today. I knwo all the dance moves.. and certainly was able to teach some pple. I like that feeling. I Just at times cannot remb what's gonna be the next moves and stuff like that. Haha its funny. But Im also confident. Danced with He Jia during the stage performance.. well I danced the girl part. :) Later when I got back down.. when dancing with another girl.. I sorta got damm blur cause I sorta needed her to guide me along the guy's part.. haha but all fun i guess.
The football match with the senior psfs was good. We had a good team to begin with. I played as fwd.. the role that im unanimously fit into. Well shel, Salman, Fiz and dex played behind. Bryan Wong partnered me. Byron and yi yong ran the midfield. Terence and max did the flanks. All's changed byt eh second half. First half.. I ran loads.. Didn't get much of the baall and hugely dissapointing. dex's injury forced us to change.. I played alone in front. Boy our changes was superb. Terence played behind me.. fiz to the left mid cause he was not injured like max was. down the right.. BJ did good runs and damage.. Well done mate.. I think u were a lot better in this game than marina. Tho.. I think he cld put in more crosses frm right.. but the way he was able to attract def like hony opened up spaces. I like that. terence in his free role did loads of damage opening up spaces and passsing.. tho I wld say its one of his more off days on the passes. Byron and yi yong was like dynamic dynamos.. gerard and lampard.. eveywhere man. good work u two. I won't comment cause I think these two ran the show.. Man of matches.. Well Yi yong got a goal tho im not sure whether it wld be ruled out had there been a ref.. I tot it was high boot at first too..
On my own play.. I think I nvr enjoyed many more games than these. Frankly my confidence is on a low. It wasn't very high to begin with. First during warm up.. I ddin't get much of the ball.. Cldn't feel it.. First half was just chasing n chasing.. didn't touch. Second half i must say was like a change of fortune.. I got to see the ball more. Certainly made me feel better. I got a feel flicks and touches which I tot was rather good and certanly build me up. Still low on confidence tho. BJ then later played a nice thru ball which i completely failed to take adv of.. Sorry mate.. Was confused by all the shouting behind.. Pple were asking fer pass.. asking me to take the shot and my hesitation caused the ball to move too far off. Had two clear cut chances at goal which I shld had taken. I feel that I've let my team down not takin em. First was a gr8 low cross from terence. Connected it with my left foot.. guess what.. my picture perfect pose of a la becks with my right hand up stop it going into goal. Keeper had no chance.. he was beaten already.. darn my hand. Second was a great thru ball from Hafiz.. I knew what i needed to do approaching Nick.. the oppo goalkeeper. My head went like go past him.. so the took the ball past him quite well.. Smth I was scared of plling off.. I stumbled thanks to nick's tackle.. Had I fall it wld be penalty confirmed.. But i decided to balance myself and take a left footed tap in.. Didn't see Tiam how there who cleared my ball off the line.. I think I had been a let down on some occasions.. but certainly feels more like the team now. I think pple u need to be patient with me.. Goals will come. At least now I know how my team wanna fit me in. i'll do better next time. BTW.. Jean and Julia came and watch us play.. thanks man.
New years was mad.. First was my aunt's place which I went fer free bbq food. Then I went down to Boon lay countdown organised by Ben Wang pido they all.. reached there saw the CJ pple like jean, wx, miah.. Well felt good. I must sya it was boring there. Nutting much to do. Wanted to see fiona Xie and Jeanette Aw.. Chio bus but saw foam instead. After the countdown.. took Jean's dad's car down to town area. Took a cab to meet Joel they all. When i was alone in town.. I was certainly scared. Police everywhere. Loudmouths cheap talking the girls.. lots of indian bangas.. I saw a fight almost happen in front of me.. PPle were spraying the foams like mad.. then throwin em on the floor which were like colourfull by then. Was with Joel, Herge, Francis and Timo till 7+ in the morrning. Had booze.. damm dirty talk.. being public nuisance.. It was fun.. can't wait fer next yr. Well the booze made me a lil hot at some time.. But it was all ok.. I can take it quite well won't get drunk so fast. A lil hangover.. super tired.. all the staying up.. beer and even the coffee.. finally got home and died in bed ard 8+am... woke up only in the nite at 7+pm.. Hmk here I come.
