Floorball adds colour to my Uni life
I'm always full of ideas when i'm on my bed trying very hard to sleep. My brain just cannot stop thinking. So ya, I have to pen down all my thoughts since i'm lazy to switch on my dearest lappy. As i wrote this down (not typing it), its 3.45am.
Floorball adds colour to my Uni life.
When i first started my undergraduate studies 3 years ago (OMG! time really flies!), I have never thought of joining any ECA. My initial plan was to study hard and graduate with good honours. As what people said, we, humans plan but God is the one who decides it. The worst thing was that I told some of my hockey friends, "Carrying floorball stick is not as cool as hockey stick". See la, who asked me to talk big?
All that changed, thanks to my friend who dragged me down to a floorball trial. Once i reached there, i knew i have to do well to get into the team. That was the moment where my love for floorball begins. Now, floorball is part of my life. And carrying floorball stick is cool. =)
Through floorball, I made a lot of friends. My social circle widens. They are not only my teammates, they are my friends. Good, close friends whom i can trust when we talked about something that should be kept within ourselves. I felt I am closer to my floorball friends. I feel great when I'm with them.
I have to admit that I am not a smart person to begin with. My hardwork, of course with the help of God, I am where I am now. Honestly, sometimes when i hang around with my coursemates, I felt that I am the stupidest person on earth. However, that's not the case when I'm with my floorball friends. Academic stuff is nowhere near us. It is as though we hit them like a floorball ball, as hard as we can to the corner of the court or even out of the court. I find joy in floorball. Call me pathetic or what cos it is as though my life revolves around floorball. That's the truth.
At this age, i felt my coaches are not only a coach. They are my friends, my mentor. On court, they are your coach, 'yes coach, yes Alvin, yes Jill.' When we're out of court, they are my friends (I hope so). When they stop coaching your team, they exist as your friend. Someone who somehow have touched your life. It may not be big but is has touched, left a small print somewhere in your heart.
I have never regret making this decision. Sacrificing my time and energy, running and sweating on court. My studies were a lil affected, but ya, I still never regret it. At least, when I graduate, I have something to look back and say, "I have a wonderful and interesting Uni life."
With sacrifices, it is much sweeter.
This is just the first part of my free flow thoughts. Shall type it out the others tomorrow.

Okaaaaayss....my lower body is really aching. sitting and standing up is a lil problem. sianz! must recover by Tuesday afternoon!
made my way down to TSH to watch Storm's game. Met Diana on the 168 bus. To kill time, she marked her sec 1 tutees' composition. OMG! its really entertaining reading their writings. sec 1 and you still write like that....gg.
Some of the examples i can remember. They were suppose to write about their friend who met and accident.
I opened the cardboard and all my clothes......
There was a big drain with a bit depth of water.....
She found a five dollars note. She was in a dreamland.... You found a $5 and you're in your lala world. $5?????
A husband who killed himself because his wife didn't believed him...where's the link?
She read the deleted message her husband sent to her (by sms)...
she found a way to retrieve deleted message?
since when there's past tense for the word long. longed. haahaah.
There were more than that. It was indeed very entertaining. Laughed through out the journey. haiz......

New blogskin! simple and plain. i like.
Gosh, I'm really tired. All I want to do now is to be on my bed. Less than 4 hours of sleep and floorball early in the morning which stretches all the way till 4pm, not a good combination. seriously bad idea. shag! Who's fault is it? My fault for not sleeping early last night. But how to sleep when my mind doesn't want to take a rest?
Anyhow, I love my Saturday! 13SS workshop in the morning and IVP training in the afternoon. though its tiring, i loike! Don't need to follow my parents for Hari Raya visiting. weehoo! Was late for the workshop. overslept. Edmund told me taking bus from Clementi to ITE Mp will be faster. yeap, it was pretty fast BUT just now, i have to wait for freaking 22minutes for the bus! seriously, 22 minutes! stupid 154 service! by the time i boarded the bus, it was 8.40am. Reached at about 9.30am, then joined them for PT. 9 stations of static exercises. Then its floorball time! played 3v3...i think i did pretty well and i felt i played better on the right. hmmm...should try to play on the right. did some drills. drills were kinda familiar. =) After that, rush of to the ulu island of NTU for IVP training.
Court @ SRC is not available, thanks to Heritage Walk. After the frantic search for alternatives, finally we managed to use Hall 3 function hall for training. though its small, its much better than that of hall 7. 11 players turn up. didn't do much. played Alvin and the Chipmunk game (actually monkey game), then 2v2 and we finish off with 1v1. 2v2 was great. pair up with SherylS. working on our chemistry. think we're doing pretty well together. weehoo!
super shag. slept on the 199 bus. then fall asleep again on mrt on the way home, saw families, friends out for Hari Raya visiting. didn't bother me that i don't go for visiting. lazy la. go visiting, all i do is stuff myself with kuih and all sort of drinks. no way! hours of fat burning activities and all i will do during visitings is to balance it back. NO WAY! stay at home, slack, do work (work??????? crap!).
Yesterday was the supposedly Get-To-Know Each Other BBQ session. Don't think we really met our overall objective but the most important thing was for everyone to have fun. i think they do enjoy themselves especially in the Bingo game and Big Small game. Didn't know Bingo can be stressful too. Not only that, writing numbers between 1-75 into 36 boxes can also be a challenge. haha.. 5 rounds of Bingo and i have no luck. hmmmppph! Last round was pretty exciting! Gave up on my Bingo sheet and focus on Jill's. We were so close to win la! 1 more number and we can win. shucks! Really enjoyed myself last night! Hope everyone too! Its great to see most of the IVP gals are pretty warmed up with each other. Hope this year's team will be as great as last year's though it will not be the same. =)
I think SI is bullshit! pardon me but ya. ape je....nonsense and waste of time watching it.
Criminal Minds new season is out! yahoooooooooo!!! plus Bones too. double yay!

faith
Had an interesting conversation with my 2 coursemates today. We talked about religions, the existance of God, faith, beliefs...those sort of stuff. It was pretty interesting to understands what a free thinker believes in. The interesting thing is that, he believes in the existance of God. I thought free thinker don't. Maybe its him. Me and my the other friend called him a complex thinker instead of a free thinker cos he basically thinks too much! heehee....
It made me realised that, if you have a religion and you grow with that beliefs, life will be simpler. All you do is to accept as the way it is without the need for logical reasons or proof. That's what faith is. The more you try to seek for answers and proof, the more questions you will start to ask. It will never ends. Hope one day, he'll be enlightened and sees what he's been searching for.
On a random note, today's PT was goooooood. Had a good 30minutes run with some of the gals. More to come! Time to get fitter. woohooooo!
Okay, shall go and do my school work. haiz....so many things but so little time. Why can't floorball be part of a module? then I think i can ace in it. heehee....
