so sorry for not being able to bring TJ badminton boys team to the semi-finals. really really sorry... :"( so many things seem to go so wrong at the start of our badminton season. i know there's no point saying all these now, but to those ppl who wants to know...
i thought we got a pretty good start when suan sian played a great match against my junior jing kai. suan sian really did impress me with his determination in the court. this is something we all can learn from. i hope this kind of fight spirit, the hungar for victory, will continue to burn on in tj. despite losing to acjc, we still managed to clear round one. we were kind of lucky i will say, but i am sure we can do so much better and win our opponents in a much easier way... sometimes all we have to do is to believe....
In round 2, our draw was bad. the top 4 schools last year are all in one group. they are TJ MJ RJ JJ. knowing that the competition was going to be really strong, losing each point is going to be critical. first match in round 2 was against RJ. we lost 1:4. no doubt they are strong but i think we managed to put up much resistance. this is what we want to display... knowing that RJ was a school with a slimmer chance of beating.
the match against mj was the 'saddest' i will say! we really could have won BUT... i don't know... maybe luck was really not on our side. we lost 2:3. it was so near... yet so far... commenting on leonard and naresh game, i feel that they played well. especially their 2nd set when they bounce back to hit for a 3rd game. this was the most crucial match. bet most of you didn't know that we were exactly leading 14:9. however, we ended up losing 14:17. OMG!!!! how come like that! ARGH! if only we won that set... if only we got that 1 point... if only we believe and fought on to earn what we want... if only luck was on our side... there are so many if-s, but one undisputable fact that we have to face was that we lost that one chance. reality is really the most cruel thing man... can't help crying about it... i am to blame too for not winning my match against mj :( this is to zachary: hey. u did what you promised me. you won the mj game :)
things were never the same then...
game against JJ was so much more relax. no pressure since we know that we're not going to make it into the semi. that was my last offical badminton game for this year... or at least for now... we won 4:1. hahs. JJ people are so friendly la. and to those badminton friends in JJ... you guys were great. i respect you guys for your spirit :)
although the boys were down, my girls did tj proud by beating VJ in the recent semi game! woohoo! wa.. must be our cheering lah! HA. thanks to that, entire school will not be having lesson on thursday and will be going down to toa payoh sports hall to support them in the badminton final held this thursday! C'MON GIRLS YOU CAN DO IT!
!!!JIAYOU JIAYOU JIAYOU!!!!
