I used to be at the street soccer court everyday at 2+pm...right after school.
I remembered having so much fun with 1-2 soccer balls. Just me and the 2 balls. I'd practise free kicks because when I was primary 5 I could never notch a high ball. I continued practising. I watched videos of Roberto Carlos,Cristiano Ronaldo,David Beckham and some caucasian player from a Japanese League team. I learnt from them. I mastered free kicks quickly. Soon I start curling balls and that was my pride. I could proudly say that I can curl balls around the keeper who couldnt dive. (Nikesh) I used to be a bulky forward in primary school. I had this super skinny P6 indian classmate who was fierce and sort of a gangster but he still played with me. He would notch balls to me and I'd finish it off or I'd pass him a few and he'll do the job. I remember one shot where I notched it in and all I could do was continue running and jump,punching my fist in the air. I shook hands with my classmate and it was a great time. I lost contact with him after he left school.
I hardly play soccer now and I tried kicking the ball around a few weeks ago. I am rotten. I suck at rugby too. I keep punting. I don't know what is the problem with my rugby. Stupid. I can try to train 3 times a week. One day I can go run. And do some basic PT techniques. Another day go to the field,kick the ball around...master it at least once and kick the ball around before I put on my running shoes and go do PT and just run. On the 3rd day I can do agility workouts before I do my PT and run again. Such a simple 3 day thing. Yet it is so difficult to slot it into my hectic schedule. I have emcee-ing to do (despite being a reserve) and life is tough. But I love it.
The only thing about life I dislike is when it comes to love. I dislike maths just as much. (sorry aunty lorna.)
