tennis 2012

hey team, just wanna wish you guys hearty congratulations. we made it into top 8 and +1 for winning a match in the top 8 round. words cannot express how thankful i am of how far we have come or how close this family is. love you guys so much. this team has given it their all and everyone progressing together might make the progress in nationals seem like a failure but considering all the odds against us like concurrent injuries and pain we still managed to pull through, how amazing is that.

the greatest memory of this journey would be the doubles played today with my foreverdoubz partner. 9-7 is pretty decent. i still kinda like to revel in the moment. the time when the opponents seem to have given up by their attitudes and ours growing stronger than ever, despite the ruthlessness of the afternoon sun which was all so unnecessary. it's a memory. how we got hold of 2 sets because i felt we really put in our best effort. i'm so so so so so proud of you sinhui, you helped me be calm on court and though our skills might match the opponents we managed to pull through :,) maybe that's what i'll miss the most. playing doubles like we've always done, even during tennis camp and in the time of backaches for you and shin splints for me.

and i love to see the singles play, i always admire the singles players. ketrisha and her endless spurts of endurance and cheryl with her mighty hits and nadia who certainly proved her worth today and of course the linesmen and umpires who got sunburnt with us omgosh.

hell yeah this will last me the night. well thanks for the memories.

reaching.

thank you @paperrockstar, for the lovely letter. it really means a lot to me and it has done me a lot, especially while walking back home under the fluorescent street lighting where ninjas might appear any second.
so commendable, everything you do. don't lose hope!!!!!

and it's the last match of the season tomorrow. i just want to play my best, to make up for all the lost points and silly errors. and for my team, who have done great things despite the points that do no justice to the blood, sweat and tears we put in. there will be progress from last year i can smell it. *fingers crossed*
so appreciative for the class girls and their constant encouragement and my two lovely soccer captains and this teammm wheeheehee~

stormy.

probably the worst i've ever felt.
can't./

hard times.

these days

but still i raise the flag.

hehe i luv stealing pix from your blog. YOU HAVE BANGS NOW, GIRL???????? shiz can't wait to see you garghgshgesbiuhgwegjifwekmn. sorry i couldn't make it to kinokuniya le sigh.

so i had one of those weirdass dreams again that seem quite real, i thought it was, no wonder life still felt a little empty after that. was supposed to meet bren for church but i overslept. hate being unholy and all but i don't feel like going for mass today. i hope my momma no force me.

bai bai

bedazzling.

whoa mardig was actually quite amazing, costumes and all. surreal, like halloween in the middle of april, without the scary bits.
spending time with cheryl charmz and sh was worth it, going crazy in the field, and i'm happy coz things got sorted out (or at least i hope). didn't find many of the flenz though, scattered around school!! dayum.
then macs'd with charmz, crapped a lot, drank a heavenly frappe and saw jas too without her sexyasever altered tkg uni and heather! heehee, nice time.

jess is stomped!! hehe

i will miss the season so much once it ends. i still think the standardized skin colour is kinda cool, we're so jersey shore, and it feels like we're all in this together, under the sun having fun no other pun. (heh.)

top eight

we just got a letter we just got a letter~

yay, couldn't be more happy on this bright cheery day, albeit having grey skies tower over us in the morning, the events were only bursting with joy.
tj 4-1 jj
lunch with tennis kids "calm your tits, bro"
and ketrisha wanted to know what tits meant and was all
"is it a chinese word"
"is it t-i-d-s?" etc etc.
the cheryl and charmaine and i were laughing lika shiz.

and i received a happy snailmail letter. love snail mail so so so much. the loveliness of mail never perishes, especially at this day and age. *satisfied emoji*

thoughts

////edit.
i deleted everything and made a private tumblr.
#mylife #mylife.

decided to come up with a whole new resolve to focus on what i love. it's clear to me, the things that matter more to me. why couldn't i see this before.

proud of my team. ketrisha played the most wonderful game. she led, fell back a bit and when you thought every ounce of energy has been drained out of her, she fought back with such amazing inner strength and perseverance. i couldn't be more proud as a captain <for a while more>.

hello, future self.

i appreciate hugs. :'-)

loving the instax, can't wait til lyn uploads it!!!!

sleepy, can't think of anything blog-worthy so i think imma log. out.
thanks to everyone who has made this year what it has been for me. i appreciate every little bitty thing and i appreciate everyone who comes here haha. there isn't much here because i'm finally living in the period where academics dominate all other things. bright future, whatever it is.
to anyone who needs it; it's not the end. of course it's not. teachers will say that we gotta study for the a level and that is nothing wrong, just. there must be something more than merely the a level curricular. why don't they focus more on the enjoyment of something??? rote-learning is so alarmingly prevalent right now, we live and breathe it yet we've already adapted to it. surely the future generation is capable of something more. why can't we enjoy what we are doing. even now, there is no time to appreciate the beauty of subjects just because we have to ferociously chew up the syllabus and assimilating it. and whenever necessary, to 'regurgitate'. but seriously, are we just learning answer techniques and building up content to fill up the spaces?

if only post-secondary education didn't make people ever so miserable.
2nd round of OP done. i'm quite relieved, but still, so much room for improvement. and chinese; i really pray for you.
abi is so cute, i can't forget what comment she wrote on the suggestions sheet for us:
your road safety song is so cute, i want to bring my organ next time and sing along with you!

i eagerly wait for your arrival, mid-november.
sincerely, rebecca in mid-october. (14th)
