SLWEEEEPY WEEKEND...
I cannot believe it's Monday oredi!!...back to work i am on this fresh, hot, Monday morning! The weekend was such a blur!...Slept till 10am on Sat, went out to breakfast with dearie...came back and slept again till 2.30pm!!.....went out with dearie after his classes....and came back, wash up and slept again from 11.30pm to 11.30am!!.....


On Sunday, dearie had to work and fell sick!!....so, we stayed in....and guess wat?!...slept again at abt 4pm till 6pm!!.....ate, watched some TV and slept again!! from 9pm till this morning!!...aaaahhh!!.........the beauty of sleeping!!......felt soooo fresh!...soooo energised this morning!!........though still yawning away, but at least, my aches from my run last Thursday, is all gone!!......another week, another round of training regime!!....wooopeee!!... ;)


SOOO NEAR, YET SOOO FAR...
That medal felt soooo near yet sooo far....caught both matches semi and bronze game live on TV. Felt soooo sad at Jiawei's lost....During the semis, she looked pretty composed but I guess her opponent was better for she seemed to have a lot of competitive spirit in her....with her "chu-chu-chi"...."chi-chu-ah".....who isn't intimidated??....even I felt irritated!!...soooo loud and noisy!!...goodness!!.... And then, during the bronze match, it was obvious she was distracted... she was also too hasty in making those shots.... aaaaaah.... that bronze medal as well as that promised $250,000, out of grasp...


Oh well!!.....but from this episode, it is apparent that sports could bring people together... My guess is, everyone felt very proud that she went for the semis... there is still HOPE in Singapore sports... we have to give her credit for making it this far, as well as those who had helped her reach this... You know, others can say that we "bought" them over...but think!... if she had stayed in China, I doubt she would have much opportunities as she had here... this is a win-win situation for all of us...she made us, or at least, me, proud... no doubts abt it....
