Happy CNY everyone.

LFS Comp...again.

The J2s had their LFS competition over Fri and Sat and ended the whole thing as Cup semifinalists.Its frustrating yes,but considering that they fought hard and got to Cup,I think its pretty good.I think I've forgotten to mention that Nicole's batch lost in the semis against a LFS team but fought back to get 3rd.Each batch goes through their own set of trials unique to the team,but the end result will always be the same:going through the 'system' together and coming out stronger.In mentality,in character.Sometimes even better attitude and tolerance.It is called a competition because u are there to compete and there will always be winners and losers.Its only how u label urselves.
Is winning a medal/trophy really that important?Or is it the recognition and fame that comes along with it?I rather u girls played hard and lose at the Cup semifinal stage than played lousy and lose purposely in the stage group and go on to win the plate champions.U aint showing ur opponents respect,not playing in the spirit of the game, and not showing URSELVES the respect.Yes maybe winning something at this stage is important,but so's ur integrity.This would be familiar to Linin's batch.Toughen up people.It's how u bound back after the knocks.

Long hours

Sometimes I wonder if our Asian working culture is backfiring on us at the expense of our own lifes. We work for high productivity to be competive in a global market,but what excatly is the point of doing that? What do we really want to achieve at the end?

Friend's wedding

One of my close secondary school pal got married yesterday and today and I was proud to be 1 of her jie-meis. They did the Chinese customary 'bride snatching' and tea ceramony in a day(which was yesterday) and it was pretty tiring cos we had to shuttle from bride's house to groom's house to new house and back to bride's house.But take away the waiting time in between it was pretty fun.The newly wed couple hired their mutal friend, who's a professional fine arts photographer to be the offical photographer for the day. He was still pretty great with taking human portraits,plus he was humourous and help us take artistic shots.I cant't wait to get my hands on the pictures!
And so we had the solemnisation and lunch wedding today.It feels like going through the motions.Maybe thats cos we were all slightly tired,but can i guess the couple should be in more need of sleep than us. It didn't really sunk in until I got home and woke up from a short knock-out sleep.It was like,'wow.They're now married.'It just used to be a bf-gf thing and I guess I should have expected that but it still comes as a pleasent 'expectation'. I don't really know what to think about this thing called fate,but I'm glad to have met some people in my life.I feel I've been pretty fortunate and blessed to have met the 'old' jj touch girls,new jj touch girls,lion red girls and so much more.And of cos Aaron too.Hahaha.U cheeky girls reading this are just waiting for this sentence rite?Tsk tsk.

Feedback

Ok this entry is for the current J2s. I'm sorry Lois I actually find it funny U've been called noise.Wahahahahaha.Ok.(Sorry I'm still laughing away). Do you remember that I didnt get ur name right initally as well?Xiaoqi,we don't remember names that fast unless its an easy-to-remember Christian name.Give the new coach sometime.He needs more time to pin the names to the faces.Noelle,what's his style?How did he bring things across to all of u?You need time to adjust too,so give yourself and the rest more time as well.

All the best for Navy touch tmr.U'll see my NTU coach(I think of her more as a peer) there refereeing.Remember to get the ball near to ur own tryline. Just move forward.
