Hello ppl!

Gosh.

I keep procrastinating when i wanna blog!

Gah!

But nvms, at least i'm here now. (:

Now i have so much to blog about.

ok. i shall start again from where i left off and try to finish as much as i can!

Last thursday-

Chess training to prep for nationals. Had OT training. It's juz playing more games.
haha. easy peasy. =)

Last Friday-

Tcher's day! =D Super fun for our class party. Got a video of the cutting cake ceremony. haha. got our report cards then had celebrations then i went with my grp to do my chinese TFU project. Did the interview for Mr Anith and Mr Low on habits. Who else to look for other than the principals? haha.

Then went to play soccer! Teachers VS Student Organisations.

Many ppl were angry cos only ppl from the student org/ 3 boards were allowed to play, and priority to the sec 3s.

Played for first half before sidney subbed me. it was fun, tackling the teachers. Some sch staff elbowed me in the eye and my whole specs dented to one side. Ouch! I had to mend my specs while playing soccer. lols. Felt quite angry cos not even a sorry was said so for the rest of the time i was playing, damien and i kept tackling that staff. lols. so bad ar me! Damien kept sliding. haha. Several occasions where he fell. lols. Well, that's for elbowing ppl's eyes!

Then watched the rest of the match. Syukri scored one and i forgot who scored the other. In the end the score was 2-2. Tchers got a penalty! Junhao handballed that's why. But the game was exciting and fun. The teachers were all very rough! Especially the physics teachers.

Then slacked in MC room with sidney and yutian, watching them play chinese chess. lols.

Then played till 2. Went tm to eat. Met the band ppl at the busstop so we ate together.

Saw so many ppl at tm. A lot. lols.

Ate at pastamania then had aimless walking for some time before we decided to break into groups so it would be easier to move around and decide where to go.

So in the end, our grp was sidney, yutian, sean and me.

Went open plaza to slack and talk. Super funny!

Gossiped about stuff and ppl. Had a very meaningful talk cock session. haha!

Saw peng chuen and crystal at open plaza. their grp of ppl apparently also went to TC too.

Left at 6+.

It was a fun tcher's day. Eyeopeners too! (:

Saturday-

I enjoyed saturday too! (:

Was the 49th national inter-school chess tournament.

My U-16 team was wei qi, asaph, me and joseph tay.

U-14 team was benjamin, lakshman, nicholas, marcus and jin xiang.

Woke up early in the morning to meet the rest at yishun mrt.

Made our way to northland pri where the competition was held.

All our games we din get to fight no name schs! so unfair rite!

NO free morale booster.

Was very glad with my performance! (:

1st round- ACS (I) 1st Team

2nd round- SCGS 2nd Team

3rd round- Hwa Chong 1st Team

4th round- Maris Stella 1st Team

5th round- ACS Barker 1st Team

6th round- Hwa Chong 2nd Team

Out of 6 rounds, i won 4 rounds, drew one and lost one.

Lost the 1st round!

I got a winning position! Unstoppable passed pawn, but i lost by time.

Super paiseh! Cos everyone was looking at our game and my flag dropped.

We lost to ACS (I) 1st team 0-4. All 4 tables thrashed. Joseph, asaph and i were so close to winning!

Our lousiest round over the whole competition.

2nd round was morale booster. lols.

We sweeped 4-0. i was losing at first, but dunno how the girl give me so many free pieces. lol. easy win there.

3rd round!

Hwa chong 1st team.

Benford tan. skilled. lols. thrashed our 1st board.

This round only i won one of the hwa chong player andy or melvin i tink. asaph, joseph and weiqi lost.

So the score for this was 1-3.

4th round-

Maris stella 1st team.

Put up a good fight.

Was down by 2 pawns due to my mistake.

Michael siong, their coach was snorting at me, thinking i sure lose to his "disciple"

Later in the game, i was up by a bishop and he was shocked. xD

I realised i'm good at pawn structure. Got passed pawns for almost all games.

I tortured the maris stella guy badly. Promoted 2 queens. Then checkmated him in front of michael siong, his coach. ha! sweet! that's for being bad to me when he was my coach. Make him feel the embarrassment of watching his own student fall.

This round, also sweeped them 4-0

5th round-

Played with justin. Our game was quite equal. Din feel like continuing, so offered draw. Saw asaph draw with his opponent, so i juz offered draw. Justin also din feel like playing so 1/2-1/2 each. (:

We continued our game and i realised he made a lot of blunders in the end! But nvm, even though i'll be winning, i had little time too. so draw will be the best. (:

2-2 for this round. Joseph tay won, asaph and i drew. wei qi lost.

Last round

Played with Hwa chong 2nd team.

Good fight too.

The Hwa Chong ppl i felt, was the most challenging in this tournament.

Played with their team captain.

Mr wong came before the last round and "lectured" us. Told us to put everything into this game.

Maybe that was why i played well?

Before the game, asaph told me the team captain beat nicholas at singapore poly! Nicholas is like the most imba player like junkai in our school team.

I felt a bit intimidated by him since he beat nicholas, i tot i had no chance of winning him.

The game played on and he made a small mistake by exchanging his bishop for my pawn.

So i was one bishop up. I sacrificed my bishop, actually more of a trap to open a file. threatened his rook and checkmate. I tink kah hong, the team captain din see the backrank mate and i lured him into capturing my bishop when i placed my bishop directly attacking his rook and his pawn could capture me too.

He fell for it, and easily 2 rooks, i got a backrank mate, but even if he din take my bishop, he would lose a rook. and it's like 2 rooks, 1 bishop vs one rook. lols.

Crushed him in the end with a shocking checkmate and he was surprised. Most surprised was me! I beat someone who had beaten nicholas. An eyeopener yea! haha! xD

Most shocked, i would say is asaph. He was stunned when i checkmated kah hong. Kah hong resigned before the finishing backrank mate move. i wouldn't expect myself to win someone who had won nicholas!

Joseph also beat the hwa chong person he was playin with.

Woots! I'm so happy to beat the hwa chong ppl i faced that day.

Both their 1st team and 2nd team!

Morale booster for the grp for the last match after winning kah hong. (:

Got a medal. =)

haha! so happy! xD

I muz thank sheri for her prayer for me at the nationals! (:

It was answered! hha.

THANKS SHERI! =D

Bused home with the team as we were talking about chess on the bus. haha.
