September 21 DisclaimerWooooow
The past few weeks of holidays have been reeeely happening man. The latest thing that happened was Polyforum 09. And yeah, at the final presentation towards the minister..... yes everyone, I know I look freaking ugly in the video, and NO, I DID NOT SEND THAT SMS TO THE SCREEN THINGIE OR ANYTHING SAYING THAT I WAS CHINDIAN AND ALL THAT(althought it seemed like I was the most likely suspect), and I managed to lose 2kg. Lol? here me out please before I sound like a woman
Firstly, about the part where I look freaking ugly in the video. Ya, when I came on the screen wow.. I really got a shock, it was like some ugly ogre that took the form of the president of chindia saying some propaganda regarding Singapore. Ya, of course everyone from other subthemes were telling me how exceptionally ugly I looked and..... everyone from my subtheme was telling me that I looked like darth vader from star wars (lol? I didnt know he had EYES). Its like there was this part where I said "youths of Singapore" SO apparently when I said youths, my eyebrows moved up and my EYES bulged out. Hokay. really man w/e. Haha ok yeah it was pretty funny too. They were so completely going rofl on that. Like even 2 days before the prsentation they were already laughing lol, Zzz.
Secondly, I DID NOT SEND THAT SMS TO THE BIG SCREEN (the one we had during the presenatation). My first thought of that was "wow this guy really got the guts" and even more, he really DID sound like me. Yes and im really proud that the minister was a chindian too. My mom likes him lol.
She's like..
"Marky, I think he's a really good minister"
"why?"
"oh, because he's very handsome and someday I hope you grow up to be like him"
Lol? wtf mate.
And... Lastly, I lost 2 kg. I'm back to 60 already. When exams ended, I had like 2 weeks of poly forum. I've been going out and going out sooooo much that I barely even spend 5 whole days at home till this day. So much that my Dad is freaking pissed and my mom just thinks I got a girlfriend(see?? everyone thinks I've got a gf. so irritating). And 2 weeks before polyforum, I put on 2 kg, and when I went into the preforum and the actual polyforum, we were fed with like 5 meals a day sort of thing, 3 course meals and buffets. Well at least miraculously I managed to shed that 2 kg off, and be light enough to fight in my own taekwondo category, if i want to. That was the main reason regarding why I wanted to shed the weight. ye
During PF 09, I made it a point not to disclose to anyone about my taekwondo background. Not that it meant anything much. But it was just that I didnt want any possible bad scenarios to happen. My friend has like a ton of "pretty bad stuff" going on. its not that we're boasting or anything. Infact im like freaking hiding it and lying im like some low colour belter with "not much experience" at the expense of letting people think I have no life and no interest and am a boring person. oh well, if this information gets to the ears of the childish, the insecure and the (i forgot the word), nothing nice will happen. I only thought these sort of people existed on tv and stuff, no in reall life lol, unimaginable, the stupidity of humanity. Sooooo.. its just better to shut up about it. Martial Arts its like the only thing I do thats interesting lol.
Anyway, I thought that the minster was really respectable. Like he gained my complete respect not just because he was a minister, but because he had a good personality. If you noticed he managed to "silence" us, a crowd of 300 students. He was the only speaker which did that. He also took the "offensive" approach abd dared to step out of his comfort zone in debating. And furthermore, he said he was of mixed background, said that he was chindian and even elaborated on which parent was which race. I mean, who would have done that? Being mixed, the most I would tell people is that Im mixed, and leave them to guess the rest. But him, he said it infront of 300 people and even told them what race which of his parents were. respectable.
Mark- September 06 My TKD HiatusLast night was fun!
haha yeah and I kinda brought my mom, just for her to see what I've been up to for so long. Yeah. Everything went on just fine :)
And today, I had to skip church for Taekwondo's Pesta Sukan Nats. Basically I'm taking a break from tkd. I saw my grading card, my first promotion to the higher belt was in 2001. So its like at least 8 years in taekwondo, this year counting the 9th.
Its been a journey, spending almost half my life learning martial arts. No, not just taekwondo, but MMA, joining a little "fight club" and learning more about street fighting, developng my interest etc. No, not that I'm good or anything lol, but its just the information that fascinates me... And one of the things that I never ever anticipated is that you get all these childish people challenging you know, Its like just because you've got a black belt or smth, people see it as some sort of bounty on your head. Sooooooo they try to fight you and claim some sort of title. Its really hard to imagine this level of childishness at the age of 18. But anyway, things have been going on well.
After not going for tkd since january this year, I discovered today that my skills are still intact? Well yeah sorta, my own training paid off. I'm a little afraid of going for competitions ever since this year, im in senior cat now, and head kicking is allowed. Imagine the injuries that could be sustained from sparring? it takes well below half a second for a kick to reach you face. And with a skilled opponent, it can for sure do some damage. Its not the pain im afraid of, but the injury. Ok and I gotta face it too, Im not good enough. Head kicking is a whole new era in taekwondo style fighting which I dont exactly want to dive into wihtout testing the waters first, with some proper training and sparring yea prolly I'll make it :)
Witnessed a few fierce fights and painful take downs today.
But thats what I love :)
this is me |
