yesterday's event was the one i said i wouldnt go to. but i did. and i am so glad i did. too bad jeanne YEO.. fellow cg member. =p JEANNE you missed loads! haha! you really should have came. really.

alright. i had no tuition. and i was so frickin' glad to be able to sleep in till past 8am for once. mummy woke me up to go see uncle james. argh!

uncle james is the person i go to to see if i need to wear specs or not. he's the boss. and my family doesnt go anywhere else to get glasses. he say yes means yes must wear, no means no need LAH.

luckily for me, my eyesight is good enough not to wear specs, meaning i can get a pair of sunglasses to replace the PRECIOUS ones i lost on one of korea's ski slopes. mummy promised.


well, actually, i've been wanting to wear glasses. haha. you must think i'm crazy. but NO. haha. and i DO know what it feels like to wear them. i've used glasses since primary 1, but stopped in like p5 when my eyesight improved.

if uncle james said i needed to wear glasses, then no more shades!

anyway, after that, mummy, daddy and i went to have a quick lunch before sending me to the school for the captain's ball competition! clarice came i am so happy. haha! oh and i met mr kim. he asked me why i was walking around so frantically. haha! i was actually looking for the toilet LAH!

this year's captains ball competition was held in prebyterian high school. and the team i was in consisted of all the sec 4s. unfortunately, we had 12 players and had to split 2 teams with one player short each. but, heheh. here's the happy part.

we were 1 team, with 2 team names. meaning we had twice the chances of winning big time! woo-ha! just rotate players, with some overlapping, and voila! perfect combo!

so there we were, in the sec4 to jc 2 category. before we even started, i thought we stood no chance. come on man, we were the youngest group and our average height was about half a head shorter than theirs. and jcs like innova sent in more than 3 teams of superb players please. acjc also had a few teams i think. i cant remember any jcs else cos there were too many people in blue innova shirts. the other teams had no standard shirts.

oh yea. and the jc teams all had emergent guys. like a head taller than the rest kind. there were a few i was tempted to ask for their ICs. i mean like, they look 20 or something. next time, categories should go according to height.

yup. my point is, we were youngest, had less experience and whatever else needed to win a game. the first match was against jc2s and i am proud to say WE WON! maybe because the other team underestimated us? haha. so they didnt give their best? i dunno..

oh i forgot to say who was in this 12 man team.

ELIEL- team captain and ACS rugger. a rugger is a rugger. enough said.
SETH- team captain and VS boys brigade scout. ( do you call it scout? oh dont underestimate seth. he beat james JI in pull ups and other fitness stuff. James is our cg leader, twin of Jon Ji and both equally giant.)

SHERWYN- twin of seth and dunno-what-school's basketballer. without him, i think the opponents could have scored like 20 goals a game. yea. sherwyn was that good. he blocked almost everything la! pro-master! rarrgh. you can say he's something like our play-maker.

ESMOND- Hwa Chong gymast. slightly taller than me, but haha. quick reflexes and all muscles.

BEN- quiet man. but boy can he play! i've never seen ben move much. but he's steady and not rush. opposing teams dont notice him, making him an important player of ours. heheh. secret weapon?

JOSHUA- RI's dunno what. but boy can he catch. Joshua seldom misses a catch. no Joshua, much much lesser points scored.

GRACE- Nanyang's netball captain. enough said.

CLARICE- sure dares to try snatch a ball. even from guys taller by a head. i cant do that.

EE LAINE- another BEN. quiet and unnoticed. but good to have on court.

PENELOPE- didnt play much, but she's not bad.. not bad at all.

ME- the one always standing near our catcher while the rest try to get the ball. haha. i get to run less and score more. when someone defends and get the ball, like sherwyn or something, and opponents are too near to pass to nearby team mates, he goes long and i catch. then i will ATTEMPT to score. hey, i score quite a few ok.. haha..

i forgot who's the last player. crap man. how could i?

or maybe we had 11 only. haha. i dunno.

oh and in the end, we lost 2 games and won 3. cool man.

yea and we had the wrong strategy. we should have lost one of our teams badly and won one team strongly. so that we could play in both the winners league and losers league and get both teams in the finals and win first and second. then we could spent the $80 sakae sushi voucher for lunch then head to swensens to spend the $50 voucher on ice creams for desserts later on. aww.

unfortunately, we won and won and had to play our 2 teams against each other. so we just forfeited one team and added points to the other.

oh then we lost in the 3rd and 4th placing match one of the innovian teams.

haha. to be able to go so far, i'm happy enough.

yea! and one more interesting thing. nicole came to play. haha. and when she was playing against another team, i told cheryl, grace and clarice that in that game, nicole would play and fall down. but then she would rub it off and continue playing, not wanting to rest or anything.

and i was right. thankfully, cos i told them that nicole was a good, close friend. not that i wanted to see nicole fall, but if she didnt then i wouldnt be a good and close friend enough. i dont mean anything else ok. haha. aiya. its hard to explain what i was thinking.

i had a lot of exercise and had a lot of fun. thats all la.

oh yea. and when bryan and i went to the interchange to take a bus, it just left. so we ran to the next bus stop, and caught it. haha!
