Post O Levels

Finally! Freedom!

O levels ended yesterday but it has been so eventful for me that i feel that it ended weeks ago. Right after the last paper, bio 1, we choionged to CCAB for some soccer action. And the usual for me, injury to right ankle. Even with the injury i think i played average with a lot of room of improvement.

After playing for 4 hours we migrated to Beauty World, not all, but some while the others collect jerseys from Queensway. After that, Shawn, Ming and me were discovered at JJ's house to bathe before meeting up at Cine to buy tics and then to Taka for dinner at Pepperlunch. Movie was great. Stardust deserves at least 4 stars while i personally give 5 stars. I was thinking about it even after the movie ended and i was totally engrossed in the movie. It had action, romance, lessons and most importantly, a path that leads us away from the real world. I totally enjoyed it.
Missed the last train and walked all Orchard while waiting for father to pick me up at Meridien. The day ended finally.

But today was something that was just as enjoyable. Played FIFA 08 for a while and then cabbed to East Coast Park for NCC BBQ. It was Specs vs Cadets during the soccer session and i played pretty well against those front footers. But was thoroughly disappointed with my failed tricks. Some tricks are meant for real defenders and not for those who any how kick to get the ball away. Anyway, I dun look down on sec 1s since i know my standard was far worse at their age. Erm, maybe not that bad, but still not good. At least my headers improved way lot and even head out for goal kick, distance is there now for accuracy.

Didnt do any cooking and was slacking on the bench at the sea enjoying the sea breeze, the peace and tranquility that i missed for months. It was such a refreshing experience. Then, the juniors wanted to say GOODBYE to us and started doing some lame skit. Ok, effort appreciated. What was more meaningful was the letters they compiled and gave me as a very valuable souvenior. At least now i leave NCC with something to reminisce. At least i felt i did something that helped someone, that my actions had some good influence on others. Thanks kiddos, your cheerfulness brought youth back to my ever foward changing life.

Ok, after 2 days of madness, i m gonna have a day of rest tomorrow, just playing FIFA and settle the referee booking thing. After that, i going back to my plan of learning new stuff during this hols. What a busy holiday!!!But i m enjoying it, aren't you? ;)
