it's the weekend. finally.
it's been hell i must say. all that mugging almost made me lose my head. managed to keep sane though, barely. its like everywhere i go, i see people mugging. everywhere. even the people i hang around with in class has decided that mugging should be their new hobby. i know A's are coming and we need to study and all that, but i really don't want to turn my life into a mug-non-stop-until-you-drop kind of life.
anw, national 5's ended today. my team (consisting of me, zhikai, ting yang, ben, stanley and sean) manage to cruise into the quater finals after a comfortable win in the group stage. the quaterfinal match saw a close fight between the 2 teams. we had quite a number of chances, or rather, i had quite a number of chances, but failed to convert any. a shot just wide, a header sailing over the crossbar and another hitting the post. the score was 0-0 at full time and it was down to sudden death penalties to break the deadlock. lady luck was not on our side (seriously) and everything ended when my shot was parried away to safety by the keeper.
oh well, it was a good match and i'm glad i played. qingsheng scored a brillant goal for his penalty when he fooled the keeper completely with a superb lob. but his team was unexpectedly knocked out in the semis. the finals was one which not many people had predicted it to be as the stronger teams were surprisingy knocked out in the earlier stages. oh well, the ball is round after all.
at least the week ended on a high note. yep =)
