a closure

last wednesday was by far the most emotional day of my life this year.

I can clearly remember the butterflies i felt in my stomach before i stepped onto the field. i was so so nervous. but i knew, i couldn't let my anxiety nor fear get the better of me. Although we got off to a slow start, we improved as the matches went by. i thought we had achieved the best results so far in this competition. :) i really feel so proud to be part of the NJC touch rugby team. our attack may have not been top notch, but our defence certainly was! i could feel that we moved as a team, everyone had each other's back covered. when someone broke through, all of us chased to support. we had fantastic team dynamics! i really felt as though we moved with the string holding us together :) that made me ever so proud! i thought we played many intense matches and i'm glad we didn't crack under the pressure! instead, we held our cool and made it all the way to the cup finals! :) our best achievement so far :) it was so heartwarming. to be honest, i felt that we had won the minute we won the cup semis! :) i'm so glad to have shared this experience with the touch rugby team :) even though we lost the cup finals, we did put up a good fight. we held them to a draw till extra time. but no worries, i'm still so proud of the team cos we played with our hearts and souls and passion! it's the best anyone could've asked for :)

to the seniors (including bubu)

where do i begin? thank you so much for being the lovable, caring, supportive, inspiring and encouraging all the way! your spirits really kept me going the whole time. it's been one helluva roller coaster ride. but hey, we emerged alive and kicking but i couldn't have done it without you guys. you guys have made me so proud especially on wednesday :) thank you so much! we did it as a team :) and that's what really matters. thank you! :) by the way, shuj! you da bomb! haha thanks for being an inspiring and encouraging captain :) you did a great job and we love you! i love all of you guys la :) heehee

now that trainings are no longer regular, i'm really sad. i feel a sense of emptiness within me. let's train together soon yep? touch rugby means so much to me and now, it's beginning to hit me. rugby is life.

haha! some after match fun! :)

p.s: i do not appreciate people who diss their teammates. excuse me, but please look at yourself in the mirror before criticizing others. you are NOTHING without your teammates. you are each an equal part of the team, you do things as a team and not as an individual. please correct your attitude before trying to correct others' mistakes. in order to make the team, you work hard. i learnt that. so should you. please wake up your idea and stop treating trainings as though they were holidays if you want to make the team. and please, stop your whining! i'm your senior for god's sake, i hope you can respect that. i'm sorry miss, you're way out of line. please reflect and i hope you wake up your idea pronoto. if you can't, just don't speak.
