Soccer

Arghh.... Ouch! Played soccer ytd. Nao my toes hurt. Shall blog about yesterday.. quite eventful after the common tests ended. Okay.. went for some soccer yesterday after invitation by Eugene on FB. Was supposed to be last week but postponed to ytd due to JC2 common tests. Met up with Eugene and the others at Bukit Panjang Soccer Court. Wow.. didn't notice there was such a huge recreational area just opposite Bukit Panjang Plaza. Seen the building before, but didn't realise what it was. Court there was already taken by other guys so we had to move off to another soccer court a few bus stops away. Waited for a little while for some others to arrive and we set off. Arrived at our destination and saw that the court there had also been taken. After that 5 of the others went in to play with the guys already in the court. But was kind of phail! Got owned 3-0. Then we left. Decided instead to play in a open grass patch a few blocks away. Goals were marked out with our bags and we started to play 5 on 5. Basically the game went on fine, all the running and blocking. Only thing was that the grass patch was a little uneven and so wasn't that smooth moving around. However, did manage to get possesion of the ball a couple of times.As usual though, I always passed it on to any team mate who was in range and open. Anyways, the only interesting, or rather quite unfortunate, incident that happened was that I kicked a tree root really hard somewhere in the middle of playing. The thing was that the ball landed somewhere near our goal and the other players were still quite far off. Seeing as I was near the ball and had a good chance of scoring, I kicked the ball hard towards the goal... OUCH!!! The ball didn't really move and was taken by the other players who had rushed over by then. My toes hurt... really hurt.. excruciating pain! After playing till about 9 plus, some left for home liaoz so we moved to the void deck. Played 3-on-3 then. Was much more interesting playing in this new venue although apparently we are not supposed to do so. Due to there being many walls at the void deck, the game became less predictable. For instance, you could be dribbling the ball towards the goal when suddenly, a wall appears right in front of you. See, very unexpected! Then you lose possession of the ball. Moreover, if the person dribbling the ball goes behind a wall, then it becomes unexpected again as you wouldn't know which side of the wall he will be reappearing from. Hahas... really fun. Wow.. what a day. Check my phone only after we stopped playing and realised that John had missed called me. Omg!! Forgot that he would not be able to locate us as we've changed location. No wonder he didn't join us. Zzz... so sorry manx! Forgot to check. Left for home at about 10 plus and rode a bus to CCK Mrt with Ganesh.
