i'm out.
once again i've failed my billing.
what am i talking about?
well, it's about the singapore individual graded championships.
for once, it was a tournement that i could go far, but i didn't.
it was disappointing that after so much training and preparations, i'm still found wanting.
i still have much to learn that i have to admit and this "bump" won't stop me from training harder and continue striving to be one of the top.
my friends didn't do too well either sadly.
i guess it wasn't our championship.
but it was nice to catch up with some of them since i didn't take part in any competitions in quite some time.
some improved tremendously to the point where they aren't a walk in the park anymore.
not saying i'm that good, but just saying their process rate is in fact so much faster than mine.
i do have some bad habits that i need to get rid off.
my mentality hasn't improved much.
still losing focus in the middle of the game due to errors or me not agreeing with some of the referee's decisions.
i know its part and parcel of every game, but it's easier said than done.
but i can say i didn't lose my temper which in my point of view is an improvement. haha
i can also say i played my best. and that is a big plus.
now i know what i really can do during a competitive situation and now i know how to evaluate my own game.
which of course i'm going to discuss it with my coach during the next training session.
friends were there to support and to give me encouragement, which i thank them so much for.
without friends, difficult situations can be dealt so much easier.
i'm really grateful for them thats for sure.
so all i need to do now is to train more! learn to focus better!
be faster than fast, quicker than quick. haha
till next championship!
