How long can I keep it up? Part II

Why do I keep dropping the ball even after so much practice?
Do I really have what it takes to make it?

Been working on it for more than a year and I don't see myself getting anything out of it.
Should I throw in the towel and switch back to Basketball or Running before it is too late?
The damage is mounting and rewards are minimal for the effort I had put in.
I could have turned pro with the same effort in other sports that I'm naturally inclined to.

High risk and low returns - it has all the makings of a losing investment isn't it?

Gotta seriously re-evaluate my earlier choice and put a cast-iron deadline for me to bail out if this really ain't gonna cut it for me

2 months le...

Time really flies...
Today marks the 2nd month of Ah Di leaving for a better place.
I still miss him lots.
The small sheltie at the dog run reminds me of Ah Di, especially when he smiles.
But Ah Di's smile is still the best!

Saw this funny parody of the power rangers a couple of years back on google video, and stumbled upon it on youtube again last night. Watch it for a good laugh

How long can I keep it up?

I want to be the best.
I'm not particularly good at juggling the football, but I'm trying my best.

How long can I keep it up?
When will I be able to keep the ball in the air effortlessly?
Will I become as good as Ronaldo one day if I keep on trying?
How much more time should I give myself to try football?
Do I really have the talent?
Should I persist in football?
When should I call it a day?

I don't have a lot of time on my plate to spend on lost causes.
Can the time be better spent on other sports which I have more talent & interest in?

If I have to make a switch, now may be my last window to switch before my bones get creaky and muscles start to deterioate.
Should I switch back to Basketball instead?
Should I switch back to pure running instead?
Should I switch back to Rugby instead?
Should I?

56 days. I still miss him. Just visited the dog farm again this morning. Nostalgia.
Getting used to life without him, but it will never be the same anymore.

Finally chose our BTO flat today.
Got a pretty good unit and at the top floor.
That's the end of our search and time to start more planning.
~~~
A lot more things on my mind...

I dreamt of Ah Di last night!

I dreamt of Ah Di healthy and happy again, running around with me and dear!
So Happy!

Extremely emo video...

Just saw this video on a forum.
Watched it a long time ago and it made me cry real hard.
Now that I see it again, after Ah Di has left me for 48 days, pierces straight through my heart(T_T)

I know that Ah Di should be happy in the heavens now, but I still miss Ah Di!

Emo people, please watch it only when you are alone at home.
DON'T watch in office... high chances of crying

Just saw an accident this morning...

Brought mum and dear out for breakfast at East Coast Road this morning.

When I went back to pick up my car after the breakfast, I witnessed an accident involving a poor cat being run over by a black van along a narrow street for private houses.

It was quite traumatizing...
I will not describe the accident in detail, but it was really heartbreaking to see the poor cat's reactions after the accident.

The cat was still conscious after the accident and quickly crawled to the side of the road, while crying out in pain...

The driver stopped his car and came back to check on the cat. (I'm not sure if he did this because he saw me as the witness. I hope he did it because he felt obliged to take the responsibility of taking care of the victim)

He looked like he was quite bothered about running over the cat. He kept telling me that he has jammed his brakes but could not stop in time.

The uncle and auntie who stayed at the house directly infront of the scene came out to check on what was happening, then we got to know that the couple has been rearing this cat for the past 6 years, and it was around 10+ years old now, thus could not run as quickly as it would in such a situation.

We managed to get the driver to pick up the cat and to bring it to the vet for treatment. The old uncle told us that if the cat could not be saved, it will be the best to put it to sleep immediately to cut short its sufferings.

The driver then took the injured cat in a box and drove off.

The uncle tot that I was the driver's fren, and kept telling me that it was ok, not to worry too much about this accident. After that, then I told the uncle that I was just a passer-by, witness.

Then did I realise that we should have took down the driver's particulars and contact information. There was a possibility that the driver might not take the cat to the vet, and just dump the cat somewhere and leave it to its own devices. (I really regret not taking down the driver's particulars, at least it will be some form of assurance that the driver will be held accountable)

I really pray that the poor cat will be alright, if not, at least receive some proper treatment and not be left somewhere to suffer a slow and painful death...
