long time no c man.. i can't believe my last entry was 4 mths ago! my apologies to any whom checked for posts at tis lazy person's site regularly.. hehe.. well, juz finished my 3 mths hols.. i sold shoes then bags then back to shoes.. met a lot of new frenz.. it was fun working.. i mean, working itself is not tat interesting.. i dun reali lik working (i actually prefer studying! lol..) but it's the pple ard u tat makes it enjoyable.. yep yep.. haha..
it's ivp season tis sem so other than sch, gonna hav trainings.. hence i decided not to take another elective.. it's reali hard to choose an elective tat's easy to score yet doesnt clash in exam dates n other modules n trainings n still hav vacancy.. i need to pull up my gpa so it's impt tat i do as well as i can for my electives cos core modules r gonna get tougher.. i wanna do well in netball too cos i'm 21 le~ i think there's a lot of areas i can improve on.. i wanna know how far i can go n reach my limit.. moreover, sports life is short.. my physical abilities r gonna start declining in maybe 3 yrs? but definitely not gonna hu lue my studies cos it's for the benefit of my "farther future".. haha.. must jia you!! gotta try to take things easy n juz try my best..
i like wat jiaolian said today.. he asked, "how well r ur current stamina? if i ask u to run on the track now, how many rds can u complete?" the avg ans was 8.. so he continued, "then do u think u'll collapse n die if i ask u to complete 10 rds? or 11 rds?" well, ans is definitely no.. "yes, u all will start to get jelly-legs n get very tired but no, u won't die because of it, n u'll complete tat 11 rds for me. but if i were to tell u to run 6 rds, u'll start feeling very tired by the 5th cos ur body know's it's the last rd n u'll start to lose ur focus. there is actually no limit to it. it comes down to ur determination n how far u r willing to go n how hard u keep urself going..."
he gave another example.. "if i ask a high shooting percentage shooter to put in 10 continuous shots, she may be able to put in the first 9. but when she reaches the 10th n if i were to say 'tis is the last shot', there is a high probability tat she'll miss. she would hav lost her focus cos she knows it's the last shot n she relaxed. but if i were to ask her to put in 12 continuous shots, her 10th shot is probably as gd as her 9th."
well, i find it very true.. n it applies to other events in life too.. the exams r a gd example.. i think most pple, including meself of cos, lose concentration when it reaches the last paper cos our mind says we r tired from working hard to so long n since it's the last paper, maybe we can relax a bit.. n so we might not do as well as we could hav if we juz persevered to the end.. tis is not easy but must learn!
guess tat's all folks.. i hope my nxt post wont b too long l8r.. hee..
