Grumpy


Yes, I still cannot get over with the fact that we're ninth overall and there isn't anything I can do to change this.

Now I know I am a very competitive person. Not only competitive, but also aggressive. Serious and scary. It came to a point that my teammate called me Grumpy all the time.

I mean I love the seven dwarfs, and grumpy is a great nickname. However, it's definitely not a compliment. But it's funny how I smile every single time when Am calls me Grumpy.

But then, sometimes, if you don't have this kind of aggression in your head, how're you going to put up your best game?

This is the reason why I am not going to change just because ppl call me Grumpy. I love Grumpy. And I love being Grumpy on the court.

Canada Day Tourny Day 2

Everyone was surprised to see me today since I decided to go to Montreal the night before. It wasn't too late that I found out how rude I was to abandon the team behind because I didn't get what I wanted. Coach would use me when we get to the important games, which is the playoffs. Unfortunately, there ain't no playoffs. We came 9th, the top team in the consolation bracket.

9TH!!!

I was like.... WHAT THE....???

My worst nightmare ever. Still can't over it by now....

Anne, please don't feel bad that you asked me to come, cos it's me who decided to come and no one would guess the outcome would be THAT ridiculous.

Anyways, I am kinda disappointed with the way it ended for my vball life in Toronto. But it implies that I am something to look forward to. There are vball teams in HK and I can play with my friends again.




It's my sister's birthday today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIS!!! I joined her gang for hotpot at night. It was nice, lots of food, very tired though, after getting toasted for the whole day.

Canada Day Tourny day 1



HAPPY CANADA day!!!

As usual, we had our Canada day tournament. With 18 girls on the team, it certainly didn't make our coaches' job any easier.

When you start to have a tendency to criticize, you're probably a little too proud of yourself. Although I am a little upset with my playing time in my very last tournament with the Tigers, there is no excuse for me to be too upset and walk away. All of a sudden, I found out I am such a selfish player with no sportsmanship. You can't just walk away from the team because you think your team doesn't need you anymore.

Pride and greed really do nothing good to you but help you to make stupid decisions which make you regret.

Don't worry, I will try my very best to fix this.

A sinner´s prayer

I have just discovered my two favourite drinks at starbucks:
Green Tea Latte
Java Chip Frappucino

CB does not seem like a random name for me. That stupid chinese soap opera got me again. The miraculus power and the wonderous love of God touched my heart deeply. An orphan was bought up in an orphanage. Since he had always been by himself, people took advantage of him. Years and years, he learned that fact that he had to take advantage of other people for survival. He did everything he can to gain the most out of other people. That´s why he seemed like the worst man in the world.

In the end, he met this girl, who had a tumour. This girl liked him too but was too afraid to rely on him because she didn´t want to be too sad when she had to go. This man was heart broken. He did not know what else to do to help this girl. One morning this girl found out the mane was talking to a priest outside a church. She went to the church in the afternoon. She saw the same priest. The priest was this man´s mentor when he was young. However, he had not come to church for a very long time. This time he came back to church everyday to pray for a girl who had tumour. "I believe this girl is you." The girl almost cried and was glad to tell the man that her tumour was actually benign. Only treatments and medications were needed for a full recovery.

A man like him returned to church because of this girl. This is very romantic. On the other side of it, he came back to church when he felt helpless. And God listen to his prayer, a sinner´s prayer. Our Lord not only forgive him, but also grant him his wish. Many may think it´s just a coincident or just a soap. But it is beautiful and I do believe it happens in life. How generous our Lord is! We, as sinners, how much, how long does it take to pay the debt? How love us so much that no matter how bad a sinner you are, I am, he say, "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." (Matthew 11:28-30)
