tired

feeling quite exhausted now
played 2 consecutive days of canoe polo
yest was frenlies w ngee ann polo. played 4 games! and there was only 1 or 2 substitutes available. our fatigue was showing by the third game, but luckily we gave all out at the 4th. the games were not too bad. but me personally made quite alot of mistakes, pointed out by the kind referees. and i got my first green card! hai and for a stupid reason.. i dunno wat came over me, i tried to struggle w the opponent who was gng to hand-tackle me when i could haf done a brace, and reach the ball juz next to me!

today was a siong day of drills n games combined. i hate partner drag! urgh!!!! and xb has to make us do it every training! games were well played n aggression was displayed. i think i need a stimulant to increase my level of aggression before every match. i find tt i;m more rough when i'm angry or stressed over smthg. today the trigger was the guys, particularly the capt. he gotta respect tt the gals need our training slots as much as the guys do! one day i'm gng to explode if he does it again. i'm so glad we get to play w the red tide teams. i think we improve alot technically when we play agst teams which are better than us. when the opponents get rough, we play tough.

a quoteworthy line:
A lighted candle doesn't lose anything when it lights up another. Yet the combined luminescence helps illuminate the surroundings so much better.
