Match vs SJII

Procrastinating is the word.

The work is piling, the stuff that i need to know are snowballing. I must get things done by tomorrow, if not it ll be another treacherous week. Things have been not very manageable so far. The long days are killing me. Coach came for track training on mon. He s a sprinter so naturally he ll focus more on sprinting drills than any other. At first i thought 400m and 800m are middle distance but after asking the seniors, i realised it s sprints. So i think i ll be in sprints with shawn then, instead of long distance with ying lun. Got back bio test and i managed to pass by 7 marks. Not bad for a last minute mugger huh. 1 more mark to an A la, quite wasted.

Tuesday was CCAB after school at 5 plus. Good kick about. Left about 7 to try and reach home earlier to mug for math test that i seriously thought i would fail. Wasnt sure about summation and some AP GP qns. Luckily i passed with 19/30. Miraculously. I m really lucky this time, the paper was quite easy, but must work hard from now on and not always count on luck.

Had sports day heats on Thursday. 400m Heats 2, lane 3. Strode for the first 200m and tried to quicken my pace for the following 100m but i think i slowed down a little. Lactic acid was building up. But when i saw the guy in front slowing down, i thought this is my chance to at least get a 3rd. The extra motivation wasnt enough to beat him, even when i stuck my head out at the finishing line, he finished 0.1s faster. but overall i was quite satisfied with my timing. 1:02:7. The last time i ran a timed 400m was about 2 years ago, when my timing was something like 1:12:0. Major improvement. Anyhows, surprisingly i squeezed into the finals with the best eighth timing. Actually i didnt wanna qualify la, i ll end up as the last or second last for the sports day run lor. Damn, but i ll try my best not to finish last at least. :D Must start training, 2 weeks.

Track training has been quite good so far. Fitness improving, strength improving. Even with the rain on Thurs, we still had training, running around the school and did stationary exercises in sets. Fri's gym training was quite fun. Paired up with shawn and worked out pretty much till i was impressed with my quads popping out. Track s gonna be fun! Met yong pin in the gym with his friend. He actually visits the gym twice a week la, so enthu.. must train more to do more pullups. Only did 7 for PE on fri but was satisfied with my standing board jump, still hoping for improvement though.

The strain can be felt in my legs even till now. Left hamstring pretty screwed. Match today against some SJII people was bad. Lost horribly. I m glad i didnt make any more stupid mistakes like i usually do. But my performance wasnt good enough, wasnt inspirational enough. The ref was right, we were tactically off. I tried my best to work the offside trap but it s really difficult to control the whole back line especially when you have a five man defence and i m at RB. Shld work on my positioning more. That s the main thing. Sorry people, let s all improve and beat more opponents.

Liverpool drew with Arsenal. It was a good game. Liverpool played well, finally. Shld have won the game actually. Anyways i shall go do work now, no pics this time!
