Dear ball-shaped-hotcakes.blogspot.com,
As of late, it seems that nothing has really been going according to plan.
For one, I'm getting screwed at training more often and speaking of training, I;m suffering more and more injuries.
What could this be?
A sign from above?
When the someone I needed most left, I guess I really lost alot of courage and pardon my arrogance, but I lost a lot of dignity as well.
Yeah, maybe it really wasn't supposed to work out in the first place.
Hmm, to add on to the misery and woe, it seems that my Xbox 360 crashed on me again.
Tough.
Maybe...maybe I've really lost the strength to do many things ever since it happened.
It doesn't seem like anyone's around me anymore.
No one seems to think the way the one did.
When people ask me the same question.
I laugh.
But, it seems that every laugh I make tears me apart from the inside out.
When I look at those sappy love shows, it reminds me of how I would laugh at everything I wrote and did.
But yet.
That one enjoyed it.
I daresay I'm reminded a lot nowadays.
People say it hurts before it gets better.
But he who denies is disillusioned by the fact of reality.
You see the thing is.
I don't think it will. It's a rollercoaster ride from here on.
One with a 500 foot drop.
But for now.
We're only at 5 feet.
I daresay my days may just be numbered.
I really don't know.
500 feet ain't a walk in a park.
It's one hell of a ride.
I'm writing because I think it may clear some air.
I see friends getting into the same situation I once was in.
I fall again.
It makes me really sad, really.
To look at the past again.
But this time.
Knowing it'll never come back.
How come it hurts so much.
It never did with anything else, though.
Well, maybe I'm just trying too hard.
What if...
What if i could get away from all this for just one day.
Just a day free for me to clear out my thoughts.
Maybe it'll work.
Or maybe it'll add salt to the wound.
Sorry dear blog, I know this is a little boring but bear with me yeah?
I sit by the windows gazing,
thinking you know maybe
maybe those thousands of miles away
that one
is sharing
the same thoughts as me.
Maybe
it'll work again.
But that one says
that one says it's time to move on.
It's all really funny how
I wanted it so much
in the first place
and so did
that one.
But
time flies,
seasons pass,
people...
change.
Tears contain salt.
They make the wound worse.
So I tell my self.
Why cry?
Ah shit. In case you haven't known, I sprained my wrist so I'm out of training till Monday...which obviously is not something very good for me. Therefore, I will be missing an alleged 5 training sessions! ZOMG. That's like half the trainings I go for in a week. Also suffered a cut on my lip yesterday and on my ear. Lip was because of a nasty elbow from Superstar and ear because of a ball ramming into the earguard of the water polo cap. Shit, I'm getting more and more injury prone. Pizza was great during the farewell though. And Beverly Hills Chihuahua is not bad if you're into chic flics etc. My speeling sucks okay.

It's been rather hectic so far with 4 trainings already this week! I sprained my spinal cord area so it's kinda uncomfortable! Went for swimming training today. A LOT of "physical training". So there was only kicking done in the water which was super slack. After which ate lunch there, rice + vegetables + fish +fishballs. Not that bad. And went home to get ready for youth at 4. Left the house at about 315 hoping to be able to get a mcflurry from the Macdonalds opposite! But damn, the bus took a seriously long time. But it was sorta a good thing, I guess? Saw my coach Luo Nan on the bus with his girlfriend! HAHA. So reached the pool at 4, just nice. Changed, started training. The man down training today was awesome. I was in the blue team and the score was tied 5-5 while we were attacking AND defending. Really close call though, we were down 3-0! Oh, my coach is missing the cartillage thing in his finger cos of some injury last time. Cool. Yup, that's it for today! I HAVE to start reading my chinese book and FIND A BOOK to do my chinese book review! Any suggestions? Sigh, next year's Sec 3 it's gonna be really difficult and scared that I'll screw up just like sec 1. But I'd better not.
Some people just don't appreciate what they have while it's there and before they know it...
it's gone.

Had fun at the RGS play last night! It was a seriously hilarious show and I gotta say, girls can play guys better than guys can play girls...sigh, just goes to show we are such a predictable bunch! I went there at like 630 when a certain SOMEBODY made me go by 645 and that certain SOMEBODY came at 710! So that's more or less it for yesterday! Today was the Under-14 league and guess what...
RAFFLES = CHAMPIONS
You heard me. We got gold baby.
Although we are considered kinda lucky cos we managed to draw a lot which enabled us to go straight into the semis. So here are the scores
Semis- RI 5-3 Hwa Chong
FINALS- RI 5-2 ACS (I)
AWESOME. I am really grateful for the Hwa Chong match. Although our Sec 1s were down 2-0 in the first 5 minutes of the game. Jiao Lian subbed me in and I manged to put in a total of 4 goals. across the entire game. Not to mention a nice fifth by Gerald of Sec 1. Resulting in the 5-3. However against ACS I I screwed up. Shit. Missed like 5 5m shots. Damn. All over. At least Seh Woon managed to put in enough goals for us to win! WHOOO!!! Okay got scratched on my neck and sprained my right knee but other than that I'm more or less fine.
But that's just on the outside.

One word- Sunburnt siol.
The extremely high amounts of chlorine in the school pool and Toa Payoh pool are damaging my skin like some shizzz. It even hurts when I smile! (That seems like an emo phrase). So there was Women's team match last night. I think we won 15-3 or something but it wasn't really the National Women's team per se, rather it was some National players plus a few who were training with the team. What can I say? They are very...VERY rough. Fortunately, I wasn't one of the casualties, unlike those who had to mark their centreback. ouch. by the way, I think I touched one of their asses by mistake...or was it? I don't know but I think if I saw correctly, the girl was kinda hot! Oh, FYI- hot = just body, chio = face. Yep, moving on. Watched Madagascar 2 before the match! HILARIOUS. It is seriously amazing. Whoever hasn't watched it, should go catch it! The penguins haha. And...I'm too lazy to blog. Haha. okay, u14 tournament tomorrow! With Sec 1s! Baby, it's gonna be pure rape.
I wanna get back
To the old days
When the phone would ring
And I knew it was you

Right, so it seems everyone is getting jobs for the December holidays, but I'm telling you, yours truly has no time for it. Try spending 24 hours a week in the pool and see if you have time. Adding on to the PSP gaming sessions and guitaring times, there is NO WAY I can get a job. Even if I did, shortest term award here I come. Anyway, I got a new IBANEZ GUITAR!!! Woots. A 15 watt amp, a strap, 5 picks an electronic tuner, together with the guitar itself cost only 520 bucks!!! (cue choir of angels). Okay, so going back to Saturday's cat class. Quite sad, it's gonna be the last lesson till Sec 3. I guess maybe it's because next year it's gonna be the last year we have cat class that's making my bonds with my class people stronger? Or maybe it's just the fact that cat class has many amazing people whom I can't bear to leave :D Had a LOT of food on the last day and Angie managed to get the guitar which I asked her to get from some guy downstairs so I TRIED to start playing some songs but was cut off because of the many people delivering instructions. "haix". Oh, marissa I am so not horny, look at my innocent face. Moving on, it's gonna be the last time till sometime in December that I see these people again. Have a great holiday guys! Sunday was boring except for getting my guitar and Monday! Okay, so it started raining really early in the morning like just when our training started but unfortunately, our trainings are in the pool so therefore, rain just meant we would get wet-er and therefore, trainings aren't cancelled unlike sumbudy's. Did I mention? Loser Daryl (me) slipped in the storeroom and fell flat on my back. The floor was smooth cement, have you tried? It provides "really great cushion" for your neck and spine. went to the library after training to play cards, oops. and finally, took 53 home. bus rides are really good for thinking things through cos those are the times when you become oblivious to your suroundings (unless you're sitting next to mr fatty fats) and are able to think through really whats been happening recently and what each event would lead to and the reason for which they happened. That's the time when you draw links between everything in your life and that's the time, you find out how to go about living it.
After all, life's just a game, but play it well, you only got one shot.

Okay, so just a short update on what's been happening recently. Basically nothing much very eventful except for the return of APR, where my history teacher's comments were awesome!! I had a C for Computer Studies because I didn't submit the Animal zapper thingum. Oh well, everything else was an A and a B+ for Philosophy. I was surprised I had an A for Music!!! I didn't even pass up the concert review thing. I must have imba guitar skills. A for RE...ENORMOUS improvement from last year's C+ because we have a great leader. Thanks, Nathan! Other than that it was bye-bye to Mr Bob Koh aka Headmaster Sir and more or less training and more training. I have officially gone close to killing myself. 8 trainings in 5 days? Madness. Speaking of training, WE HAVE NEW GOALPOSTS. Yesirre, you heard me! New Anti brand goalposts! No more sinking goalposts and making a fool out of ourselves during friendlies!! Seriously, the pair cost the school 6000 bucks, which surprised us as we never expected the school to be willing to pay for the goalposts after our...erm..."achievements". The 8th training is tonight with one more tomorrow morning. And it's gonna be the last cathecism class before Sec 3!!! OHNOZ. But it's okay. Though I'm supposed to bring snacks I think Shane would have settled that. I owe him for the cap last week though. I am never ever gonna cut my hair ever again. Shit. Gears of War 2 is supposed to be out today but my xbox 360 is still undergoing reapirs. It's so unfair man. Fortunately, it should be done before GH World Tour comes to Singapore!!! Okay, that's it for this post! Time to go squeeze my b***s into those tight trunks again. Dam, reduced sperm quality.
Bye peeps.
Wednesday, November 5, 2008
I'm so tired, I can barely move my arms as I'm typing this. I've trained already 4 times this week (should have been 5). And there's a total of 9 training sessions this week for me to go through. It's so difficult but I'll try to do it. Come on man, B div is just 3 months away, am I going to screw up again? Do I really want to see RI getting fourth AGAIN? No way, this time...
IT'S WAR.
Monday, November 3, 2008
I try and try to walk away but the wind will blow, and it'll hit me in the face...all over again.
Barker match today!!! Awesome. Was quite okay but on the downside I had some screwed up shooting. But unfortuantely, though we won them like 20-3 or something, it cannot be taken for granted. After all, their ENTIRE first team wasn't here. We were playing like their 8th seeded players and below. Tsk tsk. Hwa Chong match is up next but not sure when. Gonna be scary. There was INPROMPTU DRAMA CHALLENGE!!!! WTF, we came up with some lame-o storyline about boys playing mac and dota having a giraffe hero and it being able to vomit out roti prata or something. WTH. 2E won I think, supposedly they did something related to I survived a Japanese Gameshow. Eh, then it was Course Option briefing. Trip science +history, anyone? Classroom clean-up!! Which was SCREWED UP. 2P had a freekin BRA in their class!!! I KID YOU NOT. Some blue shit. Had A CLOSE SHAVE with Mr Kevin Yap, our year head. We wanted to show it to 2B but they were having some briefing, and Mr Yap was OUTSIDE. So I just said, "it's a cloth". I had to fold it, of course. By the way, Greg, class party tomorrow, BRING THE TISSUE!!!!! AWESOME, THEN WE HAVE THE GANG BANG SHIT. ONZ. After that OBS briefing and that's it! Guess what, Xbox 360 repairs cost 200 bucks. And my game data may all be gone. God have mercy on my soul. Off to play Sims 2 now. By the way, I have pokemon on my PSP. I know you all are jealous.
Hard to force that smile
when I see our old friends and I'm alone
But I'm doing it.
Saturday, November 1, 2008
Last night was Rafflesian Spotlight!!! Some were really good like in the open category, the Intellechers or something like that and in the solo category I voted for the Aaron guy, really awesome, sang some Colin Raye song. I didn't satay for the JC performances cos I had to go back home to cut my father's birthday cake! There were some people (shan't say names), who were rather...let's put it this way...off pitch. But if they managed to get into finals, they must have done well in the auditions, so maybe it's just the nerves or something. The inteleechers were the funniest (I have no idea how to spell), they suann-ed many ministers and RI itself!!! HAHA. Had a screwed up haircut so was actually quite paranoid initially but then heck cared eventually. Apparently, the RGS vice-head prefect who was supposed to be very chio was sitting beside me!! Ok, not really beside me but the seat beside the girl beside me. Oh yeah, I'm sunburnt. I can't wipe my face without feelin pain, shit. Better put suntan lotion from now on! By the way, my church frineds who want me to play guitar, go bring your guitar! I know you guys have at least one so bring it! No way I'm bringing my own.
Ciao!
Going back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag
I'm not gonna move
