Pre-APAC

I've been working like a dog and training like a slave for this past week. All I need is rest now and I'm gonna get it. =) 6 more hours to go.

APAC is less than a week. This championship has always been significant to me. It's the first time I teared singing our national anthem, first time I see people getting emotional because we lost, us coming together as one regardless of race, religion, colour, etc, and scoring a goal at international level is just priceless. You've to be here to experience it. Train hard.

It's a do or die for our country. With India pulling out, it seems like we are the weakest team in the group. Some have been tattooed with fear of being humiliated and disappointed. I am one of them. Yes, you heard that right. I'm a fighter and I won't give up easily esp. tournaments like this. One of my 3 principles in life is to die for my country. And that is what I'm planning to do. hahaha!

The only thing that limits you is yourself.

I deserve this break. =p

When Peak Period Arrives

me: yo bro.can't make it for pump today.OT. =/ enjoy the chicks and the workout.

pump partner: haiya u har.. Sien lo like that boh syok d la haiya.. Sien lo how can i manage.. i need some help man haha.. Less man more share hahahaha ok happy working.

I guess I've to skip more trainings this week. This is what you have to face when you start working. So, students...STOP COMPLAINING!

First Injury For 2010

Since Inne adopted Penang Free School (PFS), our training session extended from 2hours to 4hours. To be honest, it is taxing but after learning the 'Law of Dividend', I know all this sacrifices will pay off in the future with a HUGE return. =)

Last Sunday was my second training session with the PFS boys. So I taught them one thing they should apply in the game of Floorball, which is the 'shocking element'. You have to do the unexpected and it really happen! LOL.

I got wacked on my upper left eyelit by a stick and it was really shocking =p It happen so fast that I didn't have time to avoid it. I went down on my knees cause it hurt pretty badly and blood was just flowing down my face. Quickly went to the toilet and have a quick check. Damn! Deep cut and I saw my eye lit ripped apart (probably 1 - 2 cms) red flesh were seen as well. I thought stitches would be needed. =x

James got me to the hospital, mum came, doctor came, MALE NURSE came and treated my wound, etc. Gave me a few options. i.e to stitch, use super glue or do nth at all. Of course I chose the 3rd option.

It is really God that kept me safe. If it's just a few more cms below, my eyeball would be .......... don't even there to imagine what would happen.

[i don't understand why the MALE NURSE had to do this =p]

Conference Call Interview

Phone rang at 8.53a.m and it's a KL number. I know this was the PowerBar Team Elite interview. Took a deep breath, answered the call calmly and wished them a very good morning. The interviewer told me I'm on a conference call with a few other interviewers. In my heart was...'Uhhh...nervous la. First time doing such interview.'

First he asked me to talk a lil about my sports background, etc. Then he asked me a few questions about the product, how much do I know about the team elite, how would I be able to benefit from it, etc. The thought of PowerBar products filling my entire room was in my mind when I was answering their questions. It was just 'yummy'.

Then the 5million dollar question was asked at the very end. He asked, 'How would I benefit PowerBar in return?' I answered...

And I told him, I really want this badly. =p

Mourning into Dancing

In early October 09, I applied to be a Powerbar Team Elite member. When I came across this application, the registration were already close (30 September 09). That did not stop me from trying. I quickly contacted Penny to send me my Floorball achievements/bio to complete my sports resume. (Thanks again Penny)

And today I received this in my inbox...


I can't believe it with my eyes!!! I'm actually shortlisted even though I send in my application LATE! This is God's favor or what? =)

You miss 100% of the shot you don't take.

In life, don't just sit back and do nothing about it, even if you're late or if you made a terrible mistake. Overcome it and take that shot. You don't wanna miss 100% of it, rite? I am taking shots in most areas of my life now.

Fingers cross for now. I surrender, Lord.

New Post

I've click 'New Post' and close this window for more than a dozen times already. Every time I type something, I just backspace backspace backspace till the page is empty again. Sometimes, I wish my life could be like this. All you need to do is just click the delete history and you're brand new. ha! But unfortunately, this NEVER happen in reality.

The good thing about this is, you're who you are today because of yesterday. I also learned that, 'If you fail to change, you'd fail to learn. If you fail to learn, you'd fail to change.' My 2010 did not start that well. =) BUT I know and I am determine to be changed! To be different. And this takes a lot of insane courage.

I believe your past/history does play an important role and even if you suck last time, you should appreciate those sucky moments you've been through. Of course there may be moments/occasions that you regret in your life but He has His purpose in our lives. I remembered Form 4 was the best time of my life!!! Sucky results but that is moment I want to go back to. Full of fun and no discrimination among people.

I am 24 this year, not getting any younger as the day past. I'm taking life, relationships, responsibilites, commitments, training more seriously.
