Long time no blog!

Hey guys...just back for some quick update. Seems like this blog's dead when I'm not around haha.

I came back from FSI with a bronze for senior team and silver for juniors team! The medal from the open wasn't as satisfying as the one from juniors, even though we got to fence the Koreans for open. I guess it's partly fear that we lost so badly..and wad's the use of reflecting now and saying I should have done this or that? Like Eve said, on the piste, we only have that 5 points to think about wad we can do, and I guess the rest is up to your reflex and quick thinking.

On the other hand, I had a hell of a time for juniors. Lol. Never in my 5-reaching-6 years of fencing life have I shouted so much. For some, it may even be the first time they heard my voice during a bout haha. Sure it feels really good to shout for every point you get, but it's quite exhausting too..by the time we got into finals, the tiredness was setting in. Of course, it was probably also the insufficient sleep the night before. We were playing dai di and slap jack at midnight in the room we stayed over at NTU? The night before our competition somemore haha. Then again, it was probably the adrenaline that kept me going. The fire, the will to win, the triumph...everything packed into that 15 points you fence for your team. What's so sastifying was that we won the Hong Kong team which had the left-hander I lost to in top 16 for indiv, the one which we didn't think we could win. Now I know that nothing's impossible. We lost to the nat team though...nvm, there's always another time when we can prove ourselves.

That 2 days had been great..although I didn't make as many new friends as Eve, Bryce or Naz, who were like on the top of the world coz they exchanged contacts with some friends from Hong Kong. Ahem. Haha.

Now it's back to schoolwork again. 5 more weeks left in school before prelims! J2 life will be over very soon..I can't wait! Haha. But first, there's A levels to conquer! I better start picking up the pace soon... Ok this is getting boring..I know I can see you yawning. Lol. Will update again if I have time. Tata!
