Winter Break

Winter break had come and gone too fast. First thing that was done was heading down to Napier for a friend's surprise birthday party and also having to get out of Palmy. Next up was snowboarding! This will be my second time snowboarding and it was fun as although I keep falling on my arse and also knees with all the bruises the next day that I couldn't sit properly. Overall, I manage to get the skill of not falling at the very last hour before the ski field closes and will definitely have another visit sometime in August.

Basically, the days after that was just sleeping in, going out for food, movies, etc., until Bersatu started at the last week of the break. Well, I have to admit that being in charge for organising a whole sports event wasn't easy, especially when the one in charge will be competing in the tournament as well. There were so many flaws when the day finally came but manage to overcome it in the end. Thanks to my helpful friends and volunteers. That was only the first day, when I woke up at 5.30am. Second day, I was all worned out and still had to play futsal and volleyball. Did not play the third and fourth day but was still out helping people. (as long as I have a walkie to hold, it's so cool to have one =D ) The most hilarious thing was, EVERYONE fell sick after that. YES! All the participants and volunteers were sick! But it wasn't swine flu, just normal cold. It was a really great experience getting to host such an event, especially for the first time and we definitely tried our best to make it the best Bersatu ever. MUMSA got second overall which was really a great achievement comparing to previous years. I've got 4 medals in total. One gold and three silvers!

You might be wondering how my results went for the first semester and I would sadly say it wasn't the most pleasant news and I do not want to talk about it. I was really disappointed, frustrated, hopeless, everything negative you can think of. It really did break my heart into pieces, pieces so small you can't see anymore! But I told myself, I will give another try this semester but if it's still the same then forget it. I am quitting!
