I don't really know whether to be happy or disappointed seriously...
That's Jasmine getting her hair tied by Digna (my maid)

That's my hair! =)

Jeslin's!

Jasmine's!
Before the showdown with our nicely tied hair =)
We were late in meeting the rest at HSS as our dear Jeslin came late. Anyway, I was really super duper nervous. My stomache was aching like shit and it sucks totally. Zzzz. We rushed to the hall but no NYJCians -_-" So there they were in the canteen still waiting for us =S Felt pretty bad in making them to wait for us for 20 mintues. Sorry people. Hanjie commented that our hair look like those people in Da Chang Jin where they tied plates around their heads. -_-" Saw the AES people down there too. And yupyup! Gary was there ^^ It made me excited for a while before I got myself back to face reality >.<
Was really nervous and excited at the same time. It's really annoying to hear your stomache churning and churning. Somemore no dinner and no breakfast made it even worst. I was really afraid of being overweight and getting to run around and lose wieght at the last minute. Thank God I passed the weighing successfully =) Today's matches are actually all the A' Division judokas playing. So yup I need to play today. The Extra Light Category started of first. It's real sad and disappointing to see the girls and guys to be losing right from the start. Seeing Sul's disappointed expressions doesn't get me relax at all. The pressure was on and my first match: Samantha Chua (CHIJ Toa Payoh).
Went up to the dojo, no one came out! Then the announcer announced that she had withdrawn from the competition! haha! I was pretty happy about it. One less match to play. haha! So it's against Vickie. The one match that I was looking forward to other than Nicola's.
Waited and waited...
Finally the time has come. She never did harai makikomi on me surprisingly. Think she tried ouchi gari and some footwork. Can't really remember much from that match seriously. If I didn't remember wrongly, I think I flipped her and went to groundwork. haha! I guess I just can't live without groundwork =) 25 seconds. IPPON!
I was freaking happy! Like super happy! haha! I finally beat Vickie! *woot* Orange beat Brown! I felt damn good =) Nicola's turn. She won. She tada! Final show down: Qinqi vs Nicola.
More waiting...
But lost by Yoko during the Golden Time.
Seriously speaking I did thought of playing with her but I'm more concentrated on the match against Vickie. I guess it just didn't turn out well. Planning wasn't done enough and lose to her. Lost means lost. There's nothing more to add on to it. But the route to being the Champion was really near! I'm super disappointed. I was quite breathless during the Golden Time already. I guess this is due to lack of running during the March Holidays. Sucks. Plus Wee Keat said that I actually got a lot of chance to attack but... I guess it still boils down to the same problem. I didn't go all out. My right leg somehow got stuck and that's it. Sucks.
I guess losing this match makes we want to win her during the Age Group even more. No slacking and full gear! In the meantime I still must be aware of Vickie. I don't think she would let it just past. I MUST PRESS ON!

Me and Sul!
(okay, I looked super unglam with my messy hair cos it's after the match! Plus I'd been waiting to take a picture with Sul for some time. tsktsk!)

Shin & me!
(Watch out for her cause she's going to beat Naomi at Age Group!)
The rest of the girls and guys: Don't give up alright! Nobody wants to lose but we got to train harder to win. There's still Age Group and Team Event for us to go all out! Beat those we had beaten us and make them pay double! Jiayou Jiayou Jiayou!
...
Proceeded to Compass Point with the usual people plus Sul and had dinner at KFC. Didn't eat though as I wasn't feeling a bit hungry at all. This is quite usual for me. Slack in KFC with Jeslin, Jasmine, Shin, Kitty & Sul after the guys left. Talked cock and gossipt with Sul lo. haha! He's super funny lo! Told us about his days in poly to army to judo stuff.. He's pretty entertaining actually =p
Erm.. Kitty is going to regret this! haha. Cause he got to attend a concert so he left the other way then Sul said he wanted to buy something so we just accompany him since we were taking the same route. So there he was at the Famous Amos shop wanting to buy cookies.
Sul: Hey! You all want to eat?
Jasmine: You treat ar?
Sul: Ok lo.
^^ So nice right? So we thought he would buy one packet then 4 of us share in the end...
Sul (to the salesgirl): 100, 100, 100 *pointing to the 3 different types of flavour* 4 packets, mixed.
I was totally in shocked when I heard that while I was typing a SMS. What?! He's treating 4 of us one packet of Amous Cookie each?! Oh my god! He's super nice lo! *beaming* That's like quite expensive considering he buying a packet for himself too! haha! That's my Coach! =)
Sul's super nice! Oh man! That makes me wanna win the Gold medal even more during Age Group! He's making me feel guilty lo! But he didn't mention about Age Group but just asked us to study hard for our papers next week...
It's real nice to have a coach like Sul. Sometimes I feel he acts more like our brother than our coach. haha! It's nice to have a brother like Sul anyway. Anyway he really has my respect. Thinking that this is the last year I would be under him makes me kind of sad. I will continue Judo still if I got the chance but I guess other Coaches wouldn't be like him. Haix!
Eoungh of me crapping. I got to start my Biology already. Heard that it's a killer. Zzz...
