Touche!
May 24, 2008

V last 6on6 match of the yr and jc lvl...im missing it..shall chart my rugby yrs....long post ahead(as always rite..haha)

first on deciding to join touch...pretty random decision..wanted a sports cca, touch had no try-outs....but not to mention other ccas i was thinking about...and oso about those im more interested in but dropped due to try-outs and stuff...x
iaoxian was still persuading me to join soccer and i was persuading her to join touch rug..haha..in the end no 1 succeeded and i guess we're both happy..haha..

first yr of touch rug was not an enjoyable ride actually...i was super isolated with the rest of the pple and i dun talk to
strangers well..so being the only 1 in my class in touch rug and having no close friends in dere i was really shy and hardly talking..thus so...plus..thursdays' trainings are always cut short by either pe or malay elective..(always miss the runnin and back5s..haha)yep..plus we arent a gd team..thus i was like interested in the game but nt interested in the team..nt to forget there were many pple coming irregularly which can be pretty annoying cos dey dun understand the moves or whatsoever..

holidays times..got better btwn relationships..but trainings are baaaddd basically cos of the lack of attendance..defeats any purposes..and i dunno when it started but the coach started coming irregularly too..which is the worse thing to train by ourselves...ourselves being unsure of anything too..it was a ti
me when we always wondered whether coach will come..wad the heck..at that period..i always thot trainings were a waste of time..we even went for a match w/o training from coach..and kidding ourselves by saying like if we win we'll be so pro..haha..obviously kidding...

anyway...this yr was seriously much better...the day the new
coach came..i went to visit ice..haha...and heard she was fierce and all..scary..dun like being the only 1 unfamilar with the coach like for the nxt training...and im sad to say i cant rmb details of our early trainings too but wadeva it was we were definitely getting better...

yea...many pple quitted touch rug..some the irregular ones
which was gd la..yep..and coach concentrated on us and really made an effort for us..im proud of her...even other coaches are asking her to give up on the j2s but she tried and she succeeded...friendly with hwa chong...even thou we lost..the score wasnt bad at all!for our expectations i guess..and coach was so proud of us...

quite disappointed in ourselves thou..i dunno..think we could have done better...like make an extra effort...if it wasnt for coach flaring up on us not remembering our moves,we wouldn
t have made an effort to do so..and during trainings...it seemed as thou we're always not listening to her..which frustrates her..which is why i really admire her perseverance to continue to coach us...trained us physically..did back7 almost every training..she brought her friends to help us..we had friendlies...

everytime we lose a match i always wanted to replay it...and
well..it cant be helped..to today...i was pretty disappointed with myself actually...ok..really..i din end nicely...as i wuld have expected..and ok..i oso din fulfil my goals tt i thot of since eons ago..and i thot i used to be flexible..but i dun understand why i seemed forgetful today...i thot ill always try to break thru gaps..but i missed out on chances today...great opportunities..which was disappointing..coach said we played well thou we lost...yea..except that i felt we shldnt have lost for 2 matches..nvm the tries on us..we din even manage to tri on them..and the fact tt i din tri makes me feel disappointed...and what we won was when we played against yr1s..aint it disappointing?anyway..cant be changed...

coach gave the yr2s all a treat at swensens..ok..she's really generous on that note..thats' bout 15pple at least worth of individual meals..and she paid all that..thanks!and the jnrs were really sweet in buyin a ice cream cake for us considering it is our last match and all..im so touched....i believe coach will b
e able to bring the jnrs to greater hts..now all her attention will be on them..jiayous!tink ill come back after a's..

althou there's still fun touch tml..it feels really over now..my tuesdays and thursdays will be free from trainings now..and im gonna miss it..always looked forward to it every these days..but now..there's nth to look forward to..


from blurness to confidence
from packing up halfway to managing to stay thru the whole event
from being trashed to a reasonable score
from being weak to strong

from shunning switches to many gd twinstars
from getting burned to burning thru
from being deaf to listenin out
from nt diving to tryin to dive
from nt being able to step to being steppy(my proudest achievement,plus the fact tt i cant rmb when was the change:))


the many transitions..the many improvements..althou i cant say we're anywhere near the best..im happy of the improvements we made..thanks coach..after the last game..i suddenly thot of how ill nt be matching again..tt feeling of nervousness..tt fe
eling of scariness when opponents on our half..the many possibilities of how we mite break thru goin thru my mine..the reminders(nt often)to try and intercept..the steps i tried..its sad..and altho theres' still uni,im nt sure if im gonna join again..for now thou...ill miss touch rug...alot:)
