I was determined to do well. And I had a good game today.Was surprised to start at centre- mid, and I kept telling myself, no more underachieving, and it began from the warm-up, when in the past I would tend to slack off during warm-up, i kept reminding myself that warming up is so i can play better and avoid injuries. We beat the Italian team 4-0. Praises from my teammates will not get me big headed and complacent anymore. I will continue to improve and try my best to apply the same attitude to whatever I do from now on.

Song of the Day : Better than Ezra - Lifetime. The lyrics tell a story. A really sad story, and yet ultimately uplifting.

Allie woke up 8am. Graduation day.
Got into a car, and crashed along the way.
When we arrived late to the wake,
Stole the urn while they looked away,
And drove to the beach
'Cause I knew you'd want it that way.
And you were standing on the hood of the car
Singing out loud, when the sun came up.

And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would.
And that REM song was playing in my mind.
And three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime. It felt like a lifetime

And you move like water
I could drown in you.
And I fell so deep once, till you pulled me through
You would tell me, "No one is allowed to be so proud"
They never reach out, when they're giving up."

Are you sitting in the lights?
Or combing your hair again, and talking in rhymes?
Are you sitting in the lights?
When I got home, heard the phone,
Your parents had arrived. And your dad set his jaw
Your mom just smiled and sighed.
But they left soon and I went to my room.
Played that disc that you'd given me,
And I shut my eyes.
Swear I could hear the sea.
When we were standing on the hood of your car
Singing out loud when the sun came up.

And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would.
And that REM song was playing in my mind.
And three and a half minutes

Felt like a lifetime.
