went to National Stadium today to get some last pictures of it. used my Canon Powershot S3IS. the pictures are really beautiful. i think i'll post it later this week, probably tomorrow or the day after.
for those of you that have been living under a rock, this is what's happening. the government's tearing down the National Stadium to build a new one. in case you're thinking how it's going to look like, go to your toilet, stare at the thing you will normally use when you go to a toilet anywhere. that is how it's going to look like. to add on, the stadium's facing the sea or river (whatever). what a sight. well, actually, the designer is designing it to look like a HORSESHOE. but, it really does look like the thing in the toilet. no offense.
alright, i'm going to answer everyone who ask me "WHY DIDN'T YOU JOIN BASKETBALL?! I THOUGHT YOU ALWAYS WANTED?! BLAH BLAH HECK?!". there were 3 trainings for the coach to decide on who to get into the team. i went for the first 2 and not the last. why? because God said so. for those who really know me, i am not one who will simply give up on my passion. basketball IS my passion. playing competitive basketball is a DREAM and will continue to be a DREAM at this moment. i wasn't demoralised, i didn't give up, I DID NOT BACK OUT. i simply allowed God to decide on what i should do. it's rather simple. now, i just want to concentrate on getting into the Dragon Boat team. i want to win medals for myself, and trophies for the team. i want to create new passions. i want to excel in different things. NO, i ain't giving up on basketball. i'm just spending lesser time on it. i'm not going to be lousier at any part of it. i'm going to keep doing it till the day i'm too weak for it. if there should be a chance for me to play competitive basketball, i will. but it's not going to affect my Dragon Boat training. when i'm in an IG or CCA, i commit to it. for the school, for the seniors, for the team, for myself.
i have to clarify that Dragon Boat is not a 'no choice have to go for this IG' kind of thing. even before i entered poly, i gave myself 2 choices, Basketball or Dragon Boat. apparently, it's Dragon Boat i've chose, and it's Dragon Boat i shall stick with. HAPPILY.
i ain't angry, i'm just motivating myself. so, relax. i am a happy man. MAN.
