This blog is created to honour the end of my Nationals Inter-School Canoe Championship 2009 and the end of a Canoeist Career in Junior College. The 1st few post will be dedicated towards the setting up of this blog and will convey my thoughts and feeling over the 4 days event to honour the Sports which I really believe in, fought for, bleed for and gave my life to.
Spirits Igniting, Promises Undying
Wednesday, August 5, 2009 @ 8:29 PM

It has been since nearly 2 years since I was last raised in Maths by She Of the Motivating, the imparter of Maths, Mdm Yap. Had something happen then that make her transfer from Bedok Town to Punggol, that help me in my grades, and landed me in JC, particularly TPJC. Had it not been for her, I wouldn't have enough points to land here in TPJC, but neither will the promise not to take up tuition exist. She has helped me, and provided me with the world's cheapest tuition with the courtesy of Mr. Tony Tan. In return for her gesture, I swore to work hard, to be literate in maths, and I know I can. If i fail, I shouldn't deserve tuition then. And now that I fail, I shouldn't deserve tuition in any sense.

In adverse times, there is no doubt that it is your teachers' words that you held on most dearly to.
... ... Just Practice Kenneth, Don't talk and no action! It is somehow comforting that your inability to do something is indeed due to faults of some sort rather than lacking the aptitude.
... ... Careless mistake is the lack of Practice! Thanks Mdm Yap. Your words held me together when I was defeated today in Lecture Theater by the easiest of questions.

And recounting the times, there is He of Sarcasm, Mr Indra. Never was a moment that he didn't fall back on his trusty tool to put us all on the edge. Typical Punggolites! 3rd language Chinese. 2nd language Hokkien. 1st language Vulgarities. He is the enforcer of dark motivations. His words create a lot of spite and self-detest, yet in those words there held some truth, in fact absolute truth if you can accept the wisdom of his words. Punggolites can never take Physics, because they're not serious in any way, thinking that they're smart but in reality they're peanuts. Here I am, 1 of the 2 person who took Physics to prove him wrong. The other is in MJC and one whom I hated so bad. I need to start thinking! If I ever stand the chance of reverting the tide.

And maybe, sent forth by She of the Motivating might be Mdm Yang, currently my Maths tutor. I swear she looks like Mdm Yap's reincarnate, equally matched in drama and wits, except younger. I have seen enough evidence and events that points to the fact that I need to succeed in what I set out for. I can't afford to f*** around anymore. I'm at a point where I know nothing except for concentration that can save me. I know I have enough content to clinch at least a C in every subject. Whatever that nature has sent forth to set itself against me, I WILL TURN THE TIDES. I know the odds are against me at the moment but they shall be undone nevertheless.


So let all the motivation, concentration, support and hard work converge, and let the spirit be reborn and glow. In the fire a new wisdom shall be born, and tie the promises to a time line that will never fade.
