The experiencesThis is going to be an awfully random post.
Thanks to the reminder of Hongwei, I found out that I actually have not being blogging since the finale of SRC. Some of the things I'd experience were exquisite and some are going to be like once in a lifetime opportunity. This is how is ensues.
Trio outing after a super long time somewhere during the March holidays was refreshing and invigorating because of some new perspective on my dear friends. Went to vivo city and had lots of enjoyable times especially when finding Vinco. It was super tricky man. I can only remember the Mussle guy and the fine details are forgotten.
Then it's the Phantom of the Opera. It was 30th of March; the day that I'd been looking forward to for close to a month. I was accompany by teacher Yubao and Diwei. The experiences that I've gotten from Phantom of the opera will be in my memories for quite some time because it is the most splendid and breathtaking concert I've ever been to. The singing, the backdrops, the coordination, the special effects, the orchestra, the crops and of cause the plot is laudable. Nonetheless this is not totally why this experience will be lasting in my memory. I've actually hyperventilated close before the interval and the felling was terrible. I was shaking like don't know what till the extent that I could not walk and talk properly. Thankfully god places two lovely angels beside me, as their love and care in fully appreciated. Because I was so cold, we went to purchase a cup of warm water. However, the esplanade doesn’t seem to be selling just a plain cup of warm water. Thus, we ended up buying a packet of tea, which means that I actually drank a cup of warm plain water for a whopping 4 dollars. Total insanity. Albeit the dramatic things that I have had gone through, I didn't miss a single tad of this 162 dollars show. No regrets at all. And after the concert, when I reached Sengkang, I met one of my NCHS friends. Aaron was super caring and lovely cause when I met him and told him that I'm not feeling well because of the hyperventilation, he actually offered himself to walk me home. Another Angel god has prepared! We chat and catch up one each other's life after secondary days and I'm glad that he didn't change at all! Haha
Good Friday morning was spent in the church and we presented a song, which I personally love it a lot. That afternoon my family and a few of my mom's church friends as well as the pastor Lim came to our house for steamboat. It's so good that we kept on eating for like 2 to 3 hours. In the evening, we went to search for my little Brother's birthday present cum baptism gift. Considered a lot of things that we could buy and then we eventually settled on the hairstyling wax- the super amazing fudge.
Saturday was good because I finally got the chance to eat my favorite
Ba gu xia mian which is heavenly. Haha. After one whole month
leh.
Sunday was Easter Sunday and I'm glad that my cousin came to witness the baptism of my little bro. Haha. Didn't see them for quite some time and I love the GAP shirt they got for my bro. Haha. Celebrated my bro birthday for most of the afternoon that day.
Monday was brilliant because god is good! I finally resume my softball training, which I missed so dearly.
Yesterday, my elder bro came back from his missionary trip. Super glad to see him after like three months. Went to Sakura buffet which I like it pretty much. Especially the prawn and the marble cake with ice cream.
Today had my first nationals match with RJC. It was again one of my best-played game ever. Close to what it's like during the SRC but then this time round it is held in our school field which reduces a lot of pressure from my shoulder and they pitcher they played was their first choice. I was eager to meet him and see how this national team player is able to give batters huge headache. As expected, his ball was super fast and tricky at the same time. Even Umbi, the
Angmoh got a standing strikeout. I was lucky enough to got a walk from him and I was only one base away from home after that. We played well during the first three innings as we managed to hold the RJC guys quite closely and we managed to score some runs, so it was pretty exciting and fun. However our momentum stop at the second half of the 4th inning when the RJC guys were batting and they were 2 down. We just need another one more player to be out and we would proceed on batting. However, we ended up conceding 13 runs. It was terrible and we really screwed up the game. The game ended 20-2. It was really a waste but then I believe that this match will spur us to putting a better performance on Friday.
Doing it for Christ!
