well... the holidays have arrived... not much of a holiday actually...
tmr have to go back to school for a full day of physics..
ok but friday and saturday is free, so that's good.
then sunday go church and have youth comm meeting to finalise everything for church camp.
then next week is a whole week of camps, including church camp, then after church camp got 2 weeks to do revision for maths, econs, and physics. cos right after the hols is the H2 papers.
there's no football training until end of midyear exams so it's a good rest i guess. though considering the form i'm in, i wouldn't mind having training..
before the hols had gp and geog h1 papers.. i think i should be able to pass.. or maybe not for geog heh.
nothing much happening.. just preparing for church camp. should be fun for the PLHers. youth comm has almost finished preparing everything.
i think that's all.. not much else to say.

big boot to the face!!!
well.. got some time now since there's no football tonight. tmr night then the epl season climaxes. all matches played at 10pm and shown at the same time on different channels!!! ahh!!! i have a super lot of dilemmas!! should i watch the liverpool game? but we've got nothing else to play for this season! should i watch man u and chelsea?? title race deciders!! or should i watch the relegation dog fights??? see who survives out of reading, birmingham and fulham to live to fight another day in the best league in the world!! hmm.. i think i'll switch channels every 5minutes!! haha.. mum and dad are coming back tmr night too. nooo!! i mean, yay!! hahaha. man, we really need to fix our living room TV. i miss watching it on champions league nights. mum and dad's room is real cold in the middle of the night and i need to bring my own blanket there.
hmm... studies-wise i guess i'm still ok... don't understand what's going on half the time actually lol. ok, that's not okay heh.. mid-years are fast approaching!!! totally dead!!!! hopefully i can survive somehow, like how i've done all these years.
church camp is around the corner too!!! need to start planning everything!!! program has been pretty much decided. just need to fill in all the little details which decide the outcome of the big games! haha. read too many of rafa's interviews already.
well.. suddenly i've found myself starting three consecutive games for cjc! wow. like, totally exceeded all my aims and expectations this year. at the start of the year, it was just to get into the cca, then it became no.1 priority to get into the A-division squad. soon, sitting on the bench contented me, and my 7-min debut was like whoo!!!!! then playing the last part against sr, and then starting my first full game against mj. then due to my performance at sports day, coach said i deserved to start against anderson. we beat them 2-0. :) i could have scored early on, but pity the volley fell to my left leg instead of my right. then i started again against acsi. we lost that one 2-1.. pretty much finishing our season. i could have scored from a corner near the end of the first half, but my effort was just inches wide with the keeper beaten. think i should have thrown myself at the ball, instead of trying to touch it in with my left leg... why don't my chances fall to my right boot!!!??? :( well, that's no excuse.. the ref was totally crap lah. gave me a booking just cos i was too close to the freekick and the guy kicked it and i blocked it. i'm pretty sure i was 10yards away, dumb ref. blind mouse.. in any case it's a soft booking to give, since it was only 5min into the game. then the rest of the match i had to watch my tackles and couldn't go in hard, for fear of being sent off. cos the stupid ref gave a freekick for EVERYTHING. worse than epl refs.. now i'm suspended for our last game on monday against hwa chong.. -.- (two yellow cards accumulated means a one-match suspension) oh well... at least something good is gonna come out of that... cos... i am ironmannnn... :) 7pm at j8.. it's a crysiz... hahaha...
so now it's for me to hold on to my first team spot. have to keep playing well to ensure i become a regular starter:) it won't be that hard if i keep doing what coach says i think. yup!
and triple H is the new wwe champion!! 12-times baby!! hahaha.
IT'S TIME TO PLAY THE GAME!!!

football, football, and more football!!!
ok why there are 3 footballs is cos there are 3 things about football to talk about!!
first, cjc's A-division season is virtually over. it's still mathematically possible to qualify for the semi-finals but i think mj just has to get one more point and we won't be able to catch them. we lost to serangoon jc 3-0 last friday. i got to come on as a sub for the last 20min or so, but by then we were already 2-0 down so couldn't do much. let in an unlucky first goal, and it just crumbled after that..
then on tuesday we played against mjc. we drew 1-1 with them. what a great result! just that we could have actually got a win!!:(:( it's like some fulham team drawing with arsenal lah. haha. and wow what a surprise! i actually STARTED the game!:D like wow. before the match, we were warming up and coach suddenly told me i was starting. so i was like o.O to throw me into the starting line-up in the MJC game is like o.O!!!?? MJC dude!!! best team in the country along with vjc! heh, so had to get focused. but lotsa stupid things happened. first, my glasses strap came out and i threw it to the bench to help me get it fixed. then they somehow got it fixed, so i wore it back, but when i went for the next header it broke! o.O then they somehow got it fixed again lol. good thing 2nd half nothing happened to it lol. i think we actually played as well as mj, if not better than them, so a draw was disappointing, but still admirable. i was playing centre midfield in a 5-3-2 formation. i think i more than equalled their center midfielders:) but our season is kinda over still.. haha..
2nd thing.. liverpool have been knocked out of the champions league!!! :(:( dang.. looks like risse's own goal in the first leg proved decisive. without it, we would be through to the final cos of torres' away goal. but oh well.. another thing the a-division has taught me is that football is like that- you win some, you lose some. don't matter how well you play, in the end, it's a funny game and so many unexpected things can happen. so you just have to live with it, and get on with the game..
3rd thing.. today was cjc sports day!! i had to do time-keeping for the track events cos i'm my class PE rep. didn't participate in any events this year cos i didn't go for the heats. can't remember why, probably cos i was busy with football or something. our class won interclass basketball. nico is a monster!!! that guy is yao ming in disguise or something lol. he gets EVERY rebound!! haha.
we had interclass football too. my interclass record has not been good actually. i've only ever played two games, one in pri 4 which we lost 3-0 and one in sec 2 which we lost 1-0. so i've never scored in an interclass football match before, let alone win one. but today.. the interclass hoodoo was finally broken!!:)
1st group game - 5-0. i managed to grab a hat-trick for this, before subbing out to let rahim play.
2nd group game - 6-1. got another hat-trick. then subbed out again to let rahim play. also needed to conserve energy for the upcoming matches.
semi-final - 2-2. got both goals in a topsy-turvy match which their centreback was body-slamming me the whole day. 1st half he had my number but 2nd half when we started punting more balls along the channels for me to chase then i got the better of him. scored a great volleyed equaliser before grabbing what i thought was to be the winner. but they got a last min equaliser and it went to penalties where we lost 3-1. i was supposed to be our last kicker but didnt get to take cos we lost before my kick. oh well.. disappointed.. but.. that's football.. at least i feel proud to have lost to the winning team. and kenneth ching scored at crucial times for their team in both the semifinal and final.
3rd&4th placing - 5-0. i scored 4 for this game. bringing my total tally for the tournament to 12 goals in 4 games. i counted, and it's confirmed i'm the top scorer for this year's event. too bad they don't have a golden boot award:( kenneth ching was 2nd with 10 goals. heh. but coach was watching and i think he might have been taking notice of it. i might have solved his fox-in-the-box problem lol.
so i guess today was a fun day.. disappointed not to have gone up to get a medal, but i guess i can take pride in the fact i won the non-existing golden boot award. haha. heh.. i think this is the 1st sports day since primary school which i've not gone up to take a medal. and this is the most fun sports day i've ever had. maybe cos for sports day in holy innocents' pri and maris stella we don't have interclass football.. hmm...
