It’s always untitled..

I’ve updated my links. All should be there; if I missed any, please let me know. Sorry for taking so long to update them.

I don’t have homework to do right now and I actually thought of studying considering exams are in less than a month BUT, (yes the expected ‘but’), I just don’t feel like it. I’ve convinced myself - it isn’t that near.. So, let’s see when I actually do start. Hopefully soon.

So Friday was MD Open. We won 2 lost 1. The first team we played against was horrible - cheats. And very unsportsman-ish. But ya we beat them by a lot. In the 2nd game, I bent my finger; not on purpose, just that the ball so happened to come flying and I miscalculated and so the ball smashed into my finger. Yeap, *piak*. Crackety. But I played on which, may have been a bad idea because I couldn’t quite balance the ball to shoot. Luckily it was my left hand and not my right or I wouldn’t even be able to catch the ball. Between that game and the next game, I used an icepack which helped relieve the pain a bit but it was getting even more swollen. The next game, I played with an almost numb finger but it was okay. Oh and my parents came, shockingly. After asking them twice to come for my previous matches, they actually turned up that day… but when they came my finger was already injured and I kept missing. *shrugs*

My dad massaged my finger - insanely painful. But definitely effective. On Saturday, my captain, lee teen, gave me the finger guard which I found very cool tehehe. My captain got injured that day. So I was told to have to play GA on Sunday for quarterfinals. BUT BUT, she came! Though really, very risky *tsk tsk* but I’d say, we would have done way worse without her.

We lost though, to MD but it was a good match. Oh the night before, I went to monkey a.k.a. Wan Mei’s birthday party. It was fun though, I knew maybe less than half of them there? Still good. Happy Belated Birthday, MONKEY! =p

I’ve been getting a lot of names lately. It’s like, hardly anyone calls me by my actual name anymore. Hmm..

Tomorrow’s going to be a pretty long day, somewhat. I should go and do something more, purposeful?

Work-less

I have no work to do! Well, at least none that’s due tomorrow. =D Surprise, surprise. And happiness too! Wahaha. I was out pretty much the whole day and I’ve been spending my time in front of the PC when I’m in. I just successfully installed Windows Media Player 11 and I’m super duper happy! It’s got one sleek look and style. And it’s got some feature where you can put album art for each song. I was very free and sakai too and so was busy putting them in.

School today was, dull. Well these past few days haven’t exactly been in interesting during school hours. Tuesday afternoon, I had netball training and halfway it started thundering and raining. Then, yesterday I .. after much thinking (and indecisiveness which probably annoyed my dear friends whom I kept asking what I should go for and yet not decide), went for sports tryout/selections. Interestingly, I didn’t feel tired nor exhausted - same thing today even though I played badminton and had Chem pracs and stayed back for netball meeting. It just proves that when you enjoy something, you won’t be tired. XD BUT, you do feel tired after that.

Tomorrow, MD Open for seniors. I’m excited! And, worried at the same time - I HOPE I can shoot in goals tomorrow. Speaking of which, I just heard (read) about the massacre (yes, slow I know) - gives me the creeps. It’s so sad. Reading about it kept ringing the thought that life is fragile - you’ll never know what’s going to happen the next day, hour, minute or even next second. Anything can happen. But then again, we just don’t seem to know how to appreciate things do we. We take time for granted and keep pushing things to a ‘next time’.

Doesn’t it always happen? We know we should, but we don’t? We know we should be more appreciative, but we don’t actually improve much? Even if we do, it could only be at that time when we’re reminded and after that, the thought slips away. We know life is fragile - but look at how much time we waste, hovering over the past and the bad.

Okay.. I don’t know why I typed that out; I don’t quite get what I’m saying anymore. Anyhoos, off to TV now.

Before that, a birthday shoutout to Amelia.

Happy Advanced 16th Birthday, Amelia!
