[C'EST MOI]
living paradox. individualist with anarchistic tendencies.
eludes eminence but appreciates subtle recognition.
capricious yet dependable. clandestine and unfathomable.
cynical realist who succumbs to the occasional idealism.
[J'AIME]
music. films. feasting & drinking. team sports.
good company; family, friends and those who share similar interests.
I'd like to say a big thank you to my friends who expressed their concern over my really sucky mood yesterday. I merely needed an avenue for me to vent my pent up frustrations. It does feel good to just let it all out. Almost like crying. Just that it's without the tears.
Today, I was really heartened by the enthusiasm of my softball girls who came down for training. Despite the harsh UVB and UVA rays which are making the bunch of us look like Malays, everyone showed great sportswomanship and fervor for the game. It really made my day. I really hope they keep this up and do their best for the match on Monday!
Following the softball training was the first squash match for this year's IHG. I was really kinda nervous because I thought I'd be playing with this really good player who was with the Hall 2 players but apparently, she was only there for show. She's not even a Hall 2 resident! *^&*#%#$
Anyway, I played against this girl who seemed like a tennis player. Her serves were really powerful and I lost my second set to her because I was feeling really tired - I could feel the lactic acid accumulating in my calf muscles and I was beginning to lose concentration. However, thanks to the encouragement of my team and hall mates, and a piece of advice a friend once gave me "To win, you must WANT to win badly" - I managed to win the game.
The feeling of winning is inexplicable. The elation, the jubilation, the sense of achievement and relief all rolled into one. I'm glad I didn't give up midway and pushed myself till the end. Although I also feel I could have played much better, there's still tomorrow's training and the next match to work on!
I hope this won't be the only time I get to feel this way.
