Can't blame me actually i missed like three of his lessons and a class test because of soccer.. On sunday went too watch " Aviation Attempt" perform. Its a band made up of fadil,Qi Lin,Leon,Han Qi and Jonas for the Zero To Hero Competition.. Iw as expecting to LMAO at them but surprisingly they impressed me especially Qi Lin!I guess we should never judge a book by its cover.Justin and i are considering forming a band for the next season if it does not eat into 2010..The YEAR OF O LEVELS.Abdulai is starting his own football academy( HE CAN"T BE SERIOUS RIGHT?)Well now its the march hols.. Quite boring. Going fico with fad and gang on Thursday( i guess that is the only thing to look forward to?) Got loads of homework to do....SIGHS

A Series Of Unexpected Events

2009-02-02T04:15:00.001-08:00

Today was the 1st match of the tournament against CCK Sec Sch.We were playing them at their home ground.First shock was when this guy called Ryan accompanied us to the match in the absence of abdulai.When we reach the ground received another shock...I WAS APPOINTED CAPTAIN?? I mean like wtf!!Out of all players me? So i captained West Spring for the second time but this was official.The CCK team was a whole different team from the one we beat last year.I only saw a few familiar faces.I led the warm-up without any confidence.I was not confident at all of playing right back in the first place.It was the wrong timing and there was too much for me to take in.We conceded in the 1st few minutes from a header.Then abdulai arrived with his WIFE????Things started to shape up but we did not take our chances in front of goal.1st half score 1-0 to CCK.Second half was a lot better.We equalized and made a fantastic comeback leading 2-1.The clock showed 10 minutes left.Okay we were going to win this..15 minutes LATER!!!!! Ball hit Macs hand and Ref gave the penalty..The captain converted it and CCK were back in the game.Okay so its a draw.5 minutes later they struck again.Could it get any worse..YES IT COULD..Ref sent of Macs for ASSAULT?? FINAL SCORE 3-2.I gotta give it up to the team they put on a good fight and we lost.There maybe some behind the scenes thing with CCK and the Ref but may God bless his soul.I would like to say this..Accept defeat gracefully,do not blame anyone.By doing so the real winner is you!The school has been totally unsupportive of soccer.Firstly they only subsidize 9 bucks for jerseys which cost 40.They BUY SOME SHIT BALL NAMED TAJ MAHAL?????!##&!#!&*They don't give us equipment??I would like to address this to Mr Seet.WINNING ISN'T EVERYTHING!THE BASE OF A WINNING TEAM IS TEAMWORK AND SUPPORT.And by setting us high expectations and giving us shit where is the logic in that?Where is the support we need?When we lose you ask us why when we win you don't EVEN CONGRATULATE US!You cant say we have not worked hard enough.At the end of the day the 11 players on the pitch will know if they have done their best NOT YOU!You are obviously biased towards band!What have they produced??Three Silvers in Three Consecutive Years?I am not saying they don't work hard they do and the fact is all the CCAs in the school are working hard to bring glory to the school EXCEPT YOU!Wake up Mr Seet!

The Race

2009-02-01T04:37:00.000-08:00

I just finished a 6km run,the longest i have done before and surprisingly i am not tired..Soccer training nowadays have changed compared to before.Before it was a laid back event but now it is demanding and tiring.Abdulai has adopted a physical approach.Can't blame him...We are in Bboys now...It is where the fittest survive.It has definitely helped us.Firdaus and Justin accompanied me for the run.Firdaus could not last and compete with me and justin.He got rashes on his skin.Scary.Ran 4km then justin was hungry and i had ice kachang.Came back ran another 2km.Tomorrow is the opening match of the tournement against CCK At CCK.I am playing at right back somewhere i am not familiar with.I shall not think about it and let fate take its path.Good Luck to West Spring Tomorrow AND RUDY PLS DUN GONCHANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shocks and Surprises

2008-12-20T02:10:00.000-08:00

Today woke up at around 9plus to get ready for K.F.C training.When i got out of Lrt station i saw a group of teenagers in white under the block kicking a ball around.Strange? Were we having a match? It turned out my assumption was right,the next moment Lucas came out from that crowd and talked with me.Okay such a strange surprise.I was dead! I did not bring my shinpads.When into the field and was greeted by another suprise.I saw an adult and two small kids no older then 6.Since when did we have a youth team?Turns out that they are the latest recruits.Ashton and Brandon.6 and 4 respectively.Received another shock when i saw what they could do with the ball.They seriously have talent.Warmed up and the Assumption people came in.They were supposedly the school team.John Thomas was in there too.I had been waiting to play John ever since i knew him.He was in NFA had a soccer club.He must be seriously good and i like playing with the best.Not far into the start of the game i created an opportunity out of nothing.The opposition defender was dallying over the ball.I sprinted in from midfield won the ball and dribbled past the keeper to net my first goal for the team.Its funny because i have been hoping for a goal for a very long time and when i least expected it..it arrived.So we were leading 1-0.Got smashed in the face by ashton.My glasses were gone.I provided an assist for melvin and the match ended 5-3.Not bad.An early christmas present from god.Two straight victories in a row.The future seriosuly looks bright for K.F.C

Matchday Review

2008-12-17T21:10:00.000-08:00

I am posting for yesterday.It was our school's second friendly match of the holidays and my first.I had a muscle pull the day before the match and my hopes of playing was doubtful.I was supposed to play for the bboys but the cboys did not have enough players so i was pulled in to help.There was a slight pull on my right calf but i managed to bear with it.The Greenridge Cboys were not intimidating in their physical size.In fact,they were almost similar to us.Met my old pri school classmate afiq and he was in the starting line up.The Field conditions was as bad as ever because of the torrential rain for the past whole week.The soil was clayey and smelled like cowdung.In the first few minutes i was bodychecked to the ground and got myself dirty.That was it! If they wanted a physical game,i will play the same or even harder.The thing about me is that i have a normal personality off the field and an aggresive one on the field.I started off okay but not the best.This was normal for me.I always improve as the match goes on.Daniel was playing behind me as last man and jia hao and vincent as fullbacks.That was more or less the defensive line up.Our midfield was totally non existent.Our defence was exposed and i was at the front line.Always had two to three people running at me but i manage to stop them.The opposition strikers had almost no shots on target during the first half.We conceded the first goal from a corner kick due to poor marking from Vincent.I was damm pissed because i specifically instructed him to mark the guy.I shouted in his face and he became emo.Lol.Apologised the next moment and was rewarded by a last ditch tackle in the penalty box by vincent to save a certain goal.In the process he injured his ribs.We pulled back 1 goal from a penalty by arif and added on another from a cool finish by firdaus.In the second half banged three more goals.The match was over and won.I was moved up to a midfield role towards the end of the game.I was covered in slime and mud after all the sliding tackles i put in.The final score 5-2.B boys unfortunately lost 5-2.After the match went for lunch at pizza hut.Shao Ming took my ball and ran away with my ball.Had lunch with fadhil,adrian,joel and macs.Later decided to catch a movie which happened to be twilight.The movie was good but not great.I seriously don't know what is the big fuss over the movie.The problem with these type of teenage fiction books is they are often long.For example the harry potter series.The way they interpret the book is extremely vital in the success of the movie.Harry Potter is a flawless example from the casting and the faithful interpretion of the book.Reached home at 7.30 and caught the Singapore vs Vietnam game.Ended 0-0.Lucky for singapore as they really deserved to lose the match.Adios!

East Coast Party

2008-12-15T04:52:00.000-08:00

Jeff,Roy and i placed a bet on how many ppl would show up..In the end we were all WRONG! LOL When we reached there 2b ppls were all ready there.More ppl streamed in soon after.Quite a fun excursion at East Coast Actually.We drew naked sand scupltures,played with quicksand(something like that) stalked joggers by following them!
