Never Back Down

I can't say that so many things had happened for the past three days. It was more like err, a lot has happened lately. So the whole family spent their Saturday at Malacca and then came back to Singapore the next day for national trials. Lost at the quarter finals 15-12 to bai rong. I dont give a damn about it anymore so yeah...

Quite surprised that almost half of the team failed the grading test. Well I guess it's a good thing that I didn't sign up for it earlier or I could've failed as well. The grading test is to be held every 3 months so why rush?

Coach stoning

I've been warned countlessly by coach (whom i still don't know what his name is. =.=") excessive force during muay that training last week. So I thought this time I'd better control my strength or I'll be in serious trouble and made a point not to go crazy during my next sparring session.

However things did not go as I planned last few days during my training. Bruce ( my coach's name, it took me 5 weeks to learn his name lmao) made us wear headgears this time. I still thought that I shouldn't hit too hard. When it was my turn, I nervously made my way into the center and then thought back what I intended to do. My head wasn't totally in the game at all. Jerome was my partner this time. Just when Bruce starts the match, Jerome came in aggressively and gave a clean hit on my chin. I was stupid enough to let my guard loose and take such a hit from hit. That was the first time I got hit in the face and that really shook me up. I couldn't think what to do next. So I charged right at him and desperately threw punches, didn't care whether I punched properly or whether my punches landed cleanly, as long as I can hit him I'll be happy enough. I didn't care whether I will get hit because I was so damn pissed that I got the first hit lmao. Coach stopped the bout and commented that I didn't use any technique, all power. But at least I fought with guts lfmao.
