My first exam of this semester is coming on this Friday and I ought to be studying like mad now. But as usual all these years, I tend to fizzle just before exams. I would really take my time and give myself super long breaks. Maybe it's my body's own way of blocking out stress. This semester has been really packed. Double sessions of lab. A project which my team mates and I had no solid clue what to include in the details. Just want to thank God for watching over me all these hectic weeks.

I cleaned up my list of blog frens, removing those who had a non-existent page. I still kept those which required an invitation to read. Some, had their last post dated in 2005 ! It was pleasant to see some blogs still alive in this very month ! The feeling for me was like meeting an old friend in a long forgotten place. But deleting those invalid blog sites was like saying goodbye to the ashes at sea.

With the emergence of Facebook and Twitter, most people are into writing short comments and maybe trying to grab attention (likes). Looking through my blog, jump blog and my friends' blog, I felt I've found back a piece of me.

Will update more soon...

Just ended my day at the IVP meet 2011/2012. NTU lost to NUS by only 2 points in the overall championship. And how did I do? An F grade for high jump. I arrived at the venue only 45mins before my event time. It was too rush for me to do the warmup and drills and to compose myself. I started the event with 1.60m but did not clear on all three attempts. Those were also poorly executed jumps.

It is just getting so embarrassing, trying year after year to participate in the event and not improving by much. And I got to attend the team dinner afterwards... I need a change to see the change. I have not decided what I am going to do about it, but generally I should just keep up the fitness until after exams when I can have more time to focus on the jump technique and all.

It is difficult and depressing to go through the cycle of fitness year after year.
