dream team
don't let fear get into
the way of your dreams
today marks an end to the most anticipated season. also the most bittersweet one. today was the last game of this season and also the last game we have together as a team. we fought hard against northland, perservered and we went into golden goal and penalty flicks without fear; just giving our best. final score was 2-1 to our favour. we really picked ourselves up from the last game and played a very much better game today. forwards were fast in getting to the ball first, midfields were great in forming triangles, intercepting passes and sending good balls into the 'd'. defenders were disciplined in marking players tight, making really quick clears and sending accurate sixteen yard balls. xinni is really queen of the 'd'. fantastic saves, lam!
we really did chase our dream - much hardwork was put in, perserverance and the undying passion for hockey and love for the team. we fought hard and came this far i'm really proud of ourselves. when everything ends, i just want you to remember the goodness you see in each other, the faith we had in each other, the believing that held us together. one aim, one heart, one goal.
and like mrs tan said during teamtalk before the game. for all the effort, hardwork and undying perserverance we put in, we don't deserve a third or a forth place. and what motivates me to fight harder was the fact that she said we should prove others wrong and show them what we're really made of. that when people watch the game, they would agree that it's a pity that this team's not in the finals.
but well, but i guess that's how life is. a good and hard lesson learnt. in life you just gotta take things in your stride. seldom, things will turn out perfect or the way you want it. there will be times when you think we deserve better but fate loves to play us and that's not within our control. just give the best you have in everything you do. if you care about every single little insult people make on you, you would have a real bitter life. one life, live it fulfillingly :)
four years of playing hockey, i learnt not just about the game, but so much more about myself and life. life's a choice. it's how you shape it. i admit, i was really playful and naive when i was in lower sec. i did stupid things i almost got kicked out of the team by ms martens who was so angry with me. i still remember, it was mrs suppiah who gave me another chance. rightfully, i must thank her cause if it wasn't for her, i won't be here today.
i was really playful and bitchy and i really wasted my years. now i look back and like my daddy says, my stress now was all pre-caused by myself cause i've weak foundation especially in maths. i don't agree what some people think of me, that i'm not cut out for studying. but seriously, the books are where i should belong. now that the season's over, i'm determine to get my heart and mind down to studying. i'm giving my best shot this time. i've so much to catch up cause i'm aiming for a jc. i've talked to my parents and i'll most probably apply dsa into sajc for the first three months. i'll study hard and make sure my final result will meet the jc requirements. i'll do just right the things you think i can't do.
and because i've an almighty God above (nothing is impossible in Him, amen!), i know that He'll bring me through the most difficult time and i'll keep the faith and give glory to His name!
bestfriend, it's time get our red paul frank watch!
