I was looking through my facebook photos (yes, again haha I do this quite alot :x) and I realised that I am always changing colour haha. I think I was the darkest 2 years ago, during the competition period eh ard March to May?! Whoa that time was crazy. I think I forgot that sunblock existed lol. But I am glad I am this colour now. It's okay I dont need to become any fairer. Just dont become darker (thinks of engin camp and ese camp omg seems impossible to remain this colour hor? :\ ) Look @ me. 2011. The second photo like abit biased haha because there's flash! And I was soooooo oily sighpie. Anyway I realised that Netball has been a very major part of my life. Idk what I'd be doing now if I didnt play netball. Theoretically, I started netball in P6, so it has been 7+ years already?! Haha yah and during the different stages I am at, I encounter different kinds of obstacles. In Primary 6, I vividly remember that I dislocated my pinky! And I was so afraid, I just pushed the bone back myself and didnt dare to tell anyone. I dont think I knew I dislocated it, but ya, I didnt seek any professional help or wdv (haha ahma's medication doesn't count right?) so my pinky is crooked now. But at least it is still functioning properly. Secondary School, I guess I was very lucky in sec sch. We got a new coach and then andss started winning zonals and all and now, look at us, we even got into nationals top 8!! And yeah, I have never not met my targets when I was in andss (regarding netball). Everything seems to move smoothly, like being able to win in zonals and various competitions. (And even being able to be the captain! Lol this is pure luck la, cos I only won by 1 mini vote haha but thanks to all who voted ^^) In Jc, things started becoming more difficult. Firstly, there were only the 5 of us. WE CANT EVEN FORM A TEAM! How to play netball?!? Also, when things were under my lead, we couldnt win. Idk why. Maybe I have been too used to at least reaching my targets. (like I mentioned previously, we kind of won a lot in sec sch but in jc, really, we kept losing) I was extremely disappointed w myself when we didnt manage to get into the second round for nationals. And we also didnt get into sec round of netballuxion. I am not blaming anyone in case you are wondering. It's just that there was many failures wrt netball when I am in jc. Like dajie mentioned, when she came to watch me play, I have never won before LOL and I think she only started coming in jc. Yeah, so there were many failures - Made me realise a lot of things. haha sometimes hardwork doesnt pay off one y'know oh wellz. And netball is a team sport. And indeed, the strength of a netball team is the weakest link (or however the proverb goes) Like in bball, it is possible to one-man show all the way and win but it is not possible in netball because there are specific people who shoot and defend and etc. Teamwork teamwork! But actl, having 5 ppl alone is not that bad afterall! Because there're only 5 of us, it is not quite possible to split into 2 cliques? And it is way easier to organise outings! Haha cos only have to accomodate the 5 ppl. Actl 4 ppl la, cos mhmx can be considered as 1 as they have the same schedule LOL and it is very easy for us to join those street netball games, cos min is 4 and max is 6. Just right we have 5 people haha so can have 1 reserve all the time :) Ps we are going to play at Youth netball soon! In june hehe I really miss playing with them :') I think we have the most mo-qi already. Chemistry~~ Now that I have joined a club, things are slightly different. Trng is optional for everybody (yep trng in schools are usually like compulsory so everyone gets to play w each other and know each other's style of play etc) but with it being optional, it is difficult to know your player's style of play. And (!!!) there is no time to train shooting lol. I used to train everyday after school and before trng but now I dont. 1) Idw to travel all the way to sk to train! 2) I dont really feel the need to :X - Maybe my urge to win isnt here yet. 3) I got to work la! haha. Well, there's a game today and idk how am I going to perform. I think recently I lost my confidence for shooting :(((((( Like I wont dare to finish the shot ? I guess you wont understand but ya, I can feel it inside me. I need to get out the confidence man if not today sure GG. And even if today GG it is okay but I cant do the same for Thurs! Because Thurs is women's game and it affects the reputation of our club if we lose. Cannot la. Confidence please come back to meeeeeeeeeeee :( Oh and anw today's match is a mixed competition. 100x rougher than our usual games haha jy and goodluck to me! Hope I will be able to challenge them and do the right thing +do myself proud :) Heh alright byebye! 加油 Jassy I know you can do it :) |
