We’ll see how things go

start from below?

The underdogs

The underdog has nothing to do, therefore whatever he gets he will be content, so long as he knows he did his best. The underdog can play with no pressure, therefore being able to release his full potential without a care in the world how others view him. The underdog can taunt the other.

The one who has something to lose is the one that has the pressure. Everyone cares about how he does and everyone hopes he meets his mark. He is pressured into doing things tipyy toppy and if he fails, he cant go back saying he has done his best, cos by falling short of his expectations due to a previous record, would that mean that he could do better? He is pressured to perform and all the stress is on him.

Case 1:

Rugby. We play Saint Andrews for semis. Should we win we play acsi for finals. Should we lose we play pioneer for 3rd and 4th. I really wanna win so that the last game we play we play as the underdogs. compared to losing and playing pioneer, when everyone will be expecting us to win. The first time we played them this year we were the underdogs. No pressure at all! We won off course. But now? They are the underdogs and have nothing to lose so they can go all out, while we will have top protect the title we hold. Comparred to playing acsi(which will be much more fun), we will be the underdogs and can play anyway we like it! Should we lose hey we were expected to lose anyway but winning is an added bonus!

Case 2:

Academics.  Someone who performs really well is expected to do so again in the next term. Any drop of marks means he isnt working. Comparred to someone who screwd up, any increase in marks is a good thing. Its easier to start from below, as long as your final marks get good, but to maintain your marks all the way is the tough one. When my marks werent that good, i used to say i only aimed for an 18 for olevels cos thats all i could make then. But in getting a 12 in term 1, i realise i cant say that anymore, cos i proved myself wrong, that i could do better than 18… so technically for term 2 i should be aiming for something like a 9? oh well..

The trick to it i guess is keeping the underdog attitude. Learn to work really hard and go for it, but to let it go easily if you screw up, knowing youll work hard to do better next time round. Screw midyear heck it, still have some more chances before the big thing. So lets see how things go aye?

I want to claim that i have fought the good fight, i have run the good race, I have kept the faith (2 tim 4:7, and so i will strive for excellence!

Excellence

Strive to excel in what i do. I realized that that is my family culture! We strive for excellence in everything while at the same time remember that excellence is only our best, and our best doenst have to be perfect, cos god looks at the heart and the process, not the outcome, though the oucome is important too to some extent.

I will dance, even more undignified than this

People

To my old primary school friendIve been looking through some o your photos posted by a mutual friend. She looks great and full of that slunk of life as ever, eyes shinning ever so brightly even in shades. But what happen to you?! You look so tired and depressed! You used to be the one girl i knew so full of energy and wisdom uncomparable. Now all i see is listlessness. as the world really weighed you down this much? It pains me to see you this way so start smiling again huh? Hey, you’ll never know who has fallen in love with your ever soo sweet smile:)

To YOU

Use your heart and not your mind. Especially when in tune with the holy spirit, your heart goes right more than your mind especially with who to believe and who to trust. I know your heart tells you to trust in Him and in him. but your mind tells you that he and you belong to 2 different worlds. FOR NOW. Doesnt matter. Go with the heart.

I’ll just be happy making sure you guys turn out fine:)

?

Im lacking of it. THats why i cant write. For quite a while now… which would mean my sudden lack of posting, i have been experiencing a sudden decline in my confidence level and my divine awareness and understanding of situations and people. I can no longer connect to peoples feelings like i used to and i cant seem to lack that knwledge that whatever decision i make will work out. Though I know God is still with me and He still shows it a lot, its been much less… well.. i havent been making my own efforts to draw to him… i guess i deserve it. i need to get into solitude more.

Oh and hey you… even though i may not seem to be involved in your life much as before, you know i still am in my own stalkerly ways.. just cant click with it thats all.
