Relight

Realised that I have not blogged for so long. Hmmmm... Well, too busy and not willing to really spend much time on the comp. blogging would be the main reasons , or should I say excuse.Haha.

Anyway, the world cup is over, with Italy being crowned champions. Germany were excellent and portugal are starting to get the hang of it. Well, but the lack of sportsmanship in the competition does not really bring about the fair results everyone wanted. It does not present soccer as a great game, where not only skills are being displayed, but also values such as tolerance, determination and self-belief. This would be what I rank as the most important factors to win any game. The rest? Luck. One cannot deny the fact that luck is non existant. It is there. Just like on your way to somewhere, you missed the bus, fell, lost your hnadphone, what does this mean? 1 word, unlucky. You can try very hard, but keep hitting the crossbar. However, your oponents just need to take a long range shot to easily score a goal. It does not seem right, cos you worked hard and got nth in return but the opposite was true for your opponent. Well, this is another case of lady luck not standing by your side. Learnt this from the world cup finals, where the french players really gave their very best, but lost to the Italians. Quite disappointed. However, luck is always not the crucial factor. The most important thing of all is to work hard towards your goal because 1 day, everything will pay off.

Anyway, got a new pair of street soccer shoes. Didnt know that the newer ones had much more friction. Keep hearing the "screech" sound when taking fast turns.

Last but not least, to wish all my readers all the best for the mock prelims and may lady luck be with you.
