Kendo Youth Tourney

Today was the day, to see if our past 5 months had been a fruitful one. Lol, one word to described it...SHIOK! Haha, this being my first youth tourney (missed last year's one), for my case, not bad la..i think >.<

For the individuals, i had to fight two NUS people in a round robin. Lol, a bit 'jialat' this year cos only one person from each round robin can proceed. I manage to draw with both of them and then when they fight each other, one of them won -_-" that time iwas like. "Oh sheet....Lol" Haha, therefore, didn't proceed XP

For team, my team (NYP Team B) had to fight NUS Team A and Team C -_-" Team A was kinda strong. Manage to draw with my opponent but in the end loss. That time doesn't really matter because its still according to plan. Then went fighting Team C, manage to win my opponent 2-0. Josh also manage to win his 2-0, Nick drew, Gabriel won 1-0 and Zili drew. Lol, thought can qualify to next round since 2 teams can proceed until...SMU turn. They won Team C completely and in they end, they get to qualify as they have more points then us -_-" Lol, all in all, Team B did a really great job even after the disastrous result on Friday during internal shiai. Real proud to be on the same team with you guys XD

Haha, most memorable match is...Men's Team Finals! Its NYP Team A vs SKC Team A. Woah, this is like..THE BOMB! The most jialat thing is that SKC Team A consists fully of japanese people. So their chances of winning looks slim but, everyone in NYP Team A gave in their all...literally. When it's finally time for the last person to fight, they drew in terms of matches but losing in terms of points. That means if they lose or draw, they lost the match. Therefore, it was solely up to our last kendoka CJ, to win the match. The match was kinda cool sia. CJ first lost a point, which moments later he took back. However, time was running up and like I said, even if they draw the match, they will lose the finals by points. (then we were like "YEA!!! ONE MORE! ONE MORE!" and chan sensei ask us to quieten down XD) The best moment was the last few seconds of the match. The whistle was already in timer's mouth and before the timer blew the whistle, CJ got a point off his opponent granting him a victory ^^ Lol, the moment we saw the flags raised up showing that he got the point, all of us were like damn high sia!! WOOT!

Haha, so these are our results (stole from selina's blog >.<) :

Men individual Bronze - Zhaolu

Men individual Silver - Xu ning

Ladies team Bronze - NYP A (Selina, Yuyan, Juline)

Ladies team Silver - NYP B (Alison, Jasmine, Jia ying)

Lol, good job everyone. All our hard work paid off >.<
