Intra Raffles Gomoku Competition xD + BWinter Oglympic
Yesterday and today was super hectic for me with taking care of the F&B stuff for Bwinter Oglympic like finding ppl to man the booth and asking ppl to buy food and settle drink. Phew, in the end we all completed our parts in getting the food done and i'm really glad that i managed to involve everyone in the comm in doing these F&B stuff. F&B comm rox totally haha.
Today started off with GP and we talked abt marriages haha. Haven't really thought abt it since like forever cuz i'm just not interested in all this yet i guess xD. The rest of the lessons were quite okay i guess and was suaned in chem again. This happens like every single chem tutorial lol and i guess i've grown pretty thick skin alr haha.
After school at 12.30 (i ponned PE xD) went for lunch then j8 with kevin and andrew to get some more food. Then rushed back to register for the gomoku comp then went for the briefing of canning tmr. I had number 32 cuz i was seeded at the other end of the branch thingy for the comp. We had 32 participants and the ownage MR guy had number 1 xD
The 1st match was rather easy against the new chair of Weiqi/gomoku cuz the guy was more towards weiqi than gomoku haha. 2-0 in like less than 20 steps. then i had to wait like 1 hour+ for my next opponent since that pair was not settled yet. So went back to boarding to get the poles for dng so that he and rachel can make the quadrat. Finally i got to play the 2nd match and it was against a gal 8-) i'm always bad at playing against gals >< I beat her in the 1st game but lost the 2nd one quite fast cuz she was really good. but in the last game i utilized some banning rule for the one starting first that the girl was not familiar with xD (in gomoku we played with that rule since like the start of last month) so i managed to beat her rather fast haha.
Waited for another 20 mins before my opponent was decided cuz the RI guys took quite long to play. In the end their match was decided by scissors paper stone haha. My opponent this round was some guy who is super pro in maths, so was quite tough as he calculated almost all his moves. But i beat him in the 1st game in the end after a super long game. The next game was also super long as both of us were defending really hard, competing with each other for every step. so it exceeded the 20 mins limit and was decided by scissors paper stone again haha. I beat him in that and won that game, so i won 2-0 as a result =))
The next round was semi-final with a J2 who was pro as well. but with some random strategy i managed to beat him 2-0 quite fast :) so i was in the final with number 1, the one i have always considered to be the best player in gomoku (i only beat him twice before, one in a random match in ihc and another one in some prac before this comp). I started 1st and tried not to play into his trap by changing my attack and defend tempo for many times. It worked quite well as first as he was quite confused since he expected me to attack a lot cuz i started 1st. then i chose to defend instead of attack. But he created some trap which i stupidly fell for >< so i lost the 1st game. the 2nd game was super fast since he was not as familiar with the banning thing as me muahahaha. So it was 1-1. in the last game it was my turn to start 1st again and this time both of us had a more open game with lots of attack and counter attack onto each other. But in the end he somehow lost his cool and committed a fatal mistake which led to my victory xD so i won the competition in the end with some popular vouchers hahaha. Shall use these to buy cambell xD
After the comp went for bwinter oglympic at the amphi. not many ppl turned up but it was fun nevertheless with lots of captain's ball and dodge ball which was super fun. And the ppl like the food hehe. Super happy. Well done, F&B comm :) thanx a lot Ru Yun, Carmen, Stephanie, Andrew, Kai Yin, Kimberley and Kevin :) and thanx Cheryl, Martin, Paul, Yue Yun, Elizabeth, Xiang Ying, some other ppl who helped us man the booth, or was camping there helping us finish the food xP anw bwinter oglympic rocked and we totally owned other houses' events hahaha.
after clearing up and stoning around, we went for dinner at the pavilion area at j8. Talked a lot with Li Nan and Yu Ze. they are really fun ppl to talk with and just had random catching up and all that :) and Tiddy got some guy came and asked her number =)) then she gave a fake one tsk tsk tsk haha. Went back at 10+ though i wanted to spend more time with these ppl >< BW goldmember is gonna be real fun man haha.
Hey, and be strong there, k? Failure will surly happen in ur life sooner or later, like for me with the posts that i really wanted, but in life there's always loss and win so just accept it and move on with a lesson to learn from it. treat it as an experience in like and use it to make you stronger, tougher and better. I noe how much u have wanted it because i went through the same process that u are going through now, too. just push urself forward or indulge in something else. that really helps. and if u wanna have a way to release stress, come for me and i shall give you tons of ways to do so. Jia you and just know that i would be there for you wheneva you need me.
