The Rolling Watermelons

Okay...so the NUS invitational was this morning and I just got home from it...and My team got like 15th...haiz...Dunno if that is good or bad...I think I bowled quite badly and let my team down...I bowled an average of about 120...Which is quite good for me but just not good enough lahs...On good days I could have bowled a 140 average...and like...We probably could have made it into the top 8...What I am actually sad over is not cause we got 15th but actually cos I caused Nicky a medal and probably some recognition which he really wanted...I mean...The Other CJC team got into the top 8, and with a 4th bowler which was much lousier than Nicky...so if Nicky had like joined the other team like they asked him to instead of joining my team, they could have probably got a 6th position or something...and its like Nicky got the 2 best average players from CJC today was in my team lahs..and we actually lost to the other team...I'm really sorry...I really feel like I shouldn have even tried to go to the competition then maybe both teams might have got into the Final 8...haiz...

Anyhow...its over and whats done cannot be done...So I just have to learn and live with it right?Anyway I have no other choice...So yesterday we were excused from the OCS thingie for bowling training yesterday...It was such a waste cos I really wanted to see them twist the chicken's head off and drink the blood or something...that was what the retainees were saying...plus my dinner plan was ruined...I was supposed to meet my mummy for seoul garden at like 7+ but then had to go for dumb training...I really wanted to pon training lahs...Sometimes I wonder y I even bother training so hard for...Anyway I'm like not in the school team anymore what...So what the point? but I went anyways cos I want to be in the exec co next year...But I seriously doubt that I can...Like which team would support a captain/president who bowls worse than them?I dunno y I am even trying...But i think that small glimmer of hope is what keeps me going...haha...

After the NUS thingie, me, Josh, Nicky and Gerard took a cab down to Victor's for training...I was scared that they wouldn give me a lane to bowl cos today's training was supposed to be only for school team bowler...but since so little pple were there, I got to bowl...and since I din bring my school shirt, I was the only extra one bowling in red shirt...haha...So extra...but no choice...anyway...at Victor's, I thrashed those reserves that the coach and the teacher chose over me...like...bleagh...I should have bowled that well in the NUS invitational thing...I got like 160 average at Victor's lahs...So the NUS invitational was nothing but a waste of my 12 bucks and a waste of my time, giving me the feeling not of success and experience but of guilt...Kinda robbed some1 of his title...
Oh, look what you've done
You've made a fool of everyone
Oh well, it seems like such fun
Until you lose what you had won
Oh, look what you've done
You've made a fool of everyone
