No wonder I'm no good in listening examinations ... :s
Got to know different types of fear,
Fear of Failure, Fear of the unknown, Fear of rejection and Fear of the future.
There are still so many fears in me that just can't let go ... Sometimes, its just hard to let go of somethings in my heart and mind. It's difficult to face towards fears and to over come it too.
This class really can't stop talking, their mouths are somehow like the store 7eleven, 24hours, I can't believe it. It made the coach so mad that he went on his knees and begged our class. Oh gosh, I was not able to even glance on him. This is horrible ... 'Hello' some self-discipline please!
I learnt how to face failure and we must have the freedom to fail too. Failures are our teacher, failures are deposits into our personal capital account, failures are feedback for our future. Even though I had failed so many times, I must stand up strong and continue to achieve my goals ...
Plus, I need to learn how to relax well ... Sometimes I can really go overboard in studying ... :s
We enjoyed even more games too ... one of my favourites was forming a circle with 8 pupils in one group, had to had one another hands across each other and just hold it tight and don't let go. The coaches will come towards us and then will try to pull one of us away from our group. Jolin was one of them who got pulled. However, no one was pulled away, some was 180 degrees from the ground ... Hahaha, we sure did had a splendid time together.
We ended the day with a few more games and did some surveys too. I gave each coach a Japanese folded star as a appreciation and thank them so much for all of their advices, especially coach Bary ... Thank you so much for everything ... really! Shaked his hand twice and said good-bye.
What a day! Slept on the bus on my way home, I was too exhausted ...
Oh man ... there's still school tomorrow ... hmm ... Oyasumi nasai!
