能不能赢场足球赛靠。。。。。

一包鸭饭?

i know it sounds insane, but at least for this season so far, its been true! okay, to be fair, its not only the lunch, its also the small little details like playing my ritual song on the way to the match, and the song must start exactly when i move off and i must cease my engines exactly when it ends, etc..

take the first match against NTU, all these i did (at that time not knowing which routine will lead to a win, i just do, and make necessary changes for future matches).. and who knows, chengwei came up with a stunning 1st min goal against kevin, a keeper i always thought was one of the best keepers i have played with/against. but in the 2nd match against NYP, when i go buy my lunch.. there was actually no 叉烧 wor.. in the end, at the game, one of our impt players andy couldn't play cuz of injury (andy = 叉烧 ? haha). when i left for the game, i forgot about the song, and only turn it on some distance after i left home.. i let chris take the warm up instead of conducting it myself.. in the end, we lost the game.. yes, we defended well.. but the 2goals we let in were silly.. it was disappointing..

in the morning of the 3rd game just played recently, andy sms-ed me to say he still cant play cuz his knee still hurts.. but when i went to buy lunch, surprisingly there was 叉烧! n guess what, he did play in the game (although only the first half)! i carefully followed my routine throughout the day, reading newpaper while enjoying my lunch.. packing my bag, thinking about the game while resting on the bed.. and we then went on to a 2 goal lead in a first half which we could have gotten more.. although they did pull one back halfway through the 2nd half, we managed them well to be in a good position ahead of the next game on monday.

i haven't told any1 else about this thinking of mine, because i know they will say im insane, that its dependent on so many factors, more on-field than off-field.. that im superstitious and such.. i know because i can see that in 彼女の目when i mentioned this to her.. u can practically see the disbelief appearing in it.. the words 神经！must have ran through her mind countless times.. and im sure tts how pple will see me, because seriously to be honest, i think its crazy too!

but people don't realise how important soccer is to me.. esp this yr.. when i have to duty n responsibility to lead the team to success.. since training began last sem in preparation for this tournament, my parents have been saying, "how can u cope soccer with ur studies now that u r in yr4.." "why don't u give up soccer?" "sometimes, u have to sacrifice somethings.." my mum, im okay because she has been nagging at me for everything/nothing for like.. forever.. but im especially disappointed in my dad for saying that because all my life, he's been telling me to do what i like.. but now.. sigh.. even 彼女 has complained that i waste my time because on match days, i won't do anything at all except prepare for the game mentally.. (haha.. look who's talking huh? who's the one who like to sit on the bed all day n stone de~ =p)

some others, say that i should be busy looking for a job instead of playing.. they r probably just joking.. but still, the remarks stands out.. even my teammates don't treat it as impt as i do.. now that sch has started, some didn't come training the day b4 the match due to lects.. i didn't attend 3 lessons in total, just to be at training/matches.. im not saying im noble or what.. but its only the first week of sch.. i think missing 1 or 2 lects won't hurt that much right.. taking into acct the tournament may very well be over as soon as this coming monday if we lose, even if we progress to semis, it will all come to an end in jan if we didn't get into the finals.. it is an extremely short tournament.. cant they just sacrifice 1 or 2 lects? its probably the fact that pple have different priorities ba.. =)

but yeah, true.. today, i should be doing up my resume (lost it when my hard disk crashed!) preparing to send out to a few companies liao.. i bet the emails on job offers would be coming in real soon.. i don't wan to not b able to apply for jobs just because im too busy with my schwrk to do up my resume.. haha.. i resolve to accomplish it tmr! hope i can keep to my promise this time because i did promise myself i would do it ytrdae.. and today after training.. but look where all those promise got me to.. hehe.. =p actually.. even if i don't get it done tmr.. i guess im fine with it.. because what's impt is the match on monday.. as mad as it sounds, all im hoping for is some叉烧 to go along with my 鸭饭.. and remembering to do every little preparation right because right now.. its all that matters to me..
