haha when u play it so often,
it realli gets tired.
especially when u have to face e fact that the comp is in 2 wks.
n e attendance is still so unstable.
i guess it would nt be so tiring if i m just a player.
a player tt jus plays n trains n not care abt other factors.
but i can't.
it's not tt i like to win, it's just tt i hate to lose.
n it's ok for lost.
but i hate it if i dun try my best.
*Excellence is not about being the best BUT trying your best*
ivp, ihg, isg.
