I am such a good girl... I have been doing my tutorials... I did tutorial 30 but some dunno how to do... Tomorrow gonna do 31. Hmm... Maybe because I tell myself.. Huimin... you got no time... Better listen in lectures. So now I listen and understand then only can I do tutorials. What a nice day.

Actually it is not a nice day... Li Jia Wei lost. She's gonna play for bronze tommorrow. I wish her all the best. Mr Tan once asked us in his lessons why we don't support foreign talent and foreign sports talent who have became Singaporeans. Basically... I think they did it for money and a better standard of life. I don't blame them for it. It is in human's nature to keep constantly improving their life and standard of living. But because of that, I don't really bother whether they win a not. However... I believe 2 sports people who converted to Singaporeans really did so because they love Singapore. One is Jun Jinghong who has recently retired out of the sports scene. U can really feel her love for Singapore. Maybe because she has a Singaporean husband and a 6 yr old kid too. The other is Ronald Susilo. I really sympathise with him when he lost, not only sympathising with Singapore. One could tell that he was really playing hard for Singapore, not for the 1 millions dollars the National Sports Council had promised them if them won a gold medal. Anyway, I hope that she will win for Singapore's sake. Singapore always loses at the crucial moment. The only time Singapore won a medal was in 1960 in Roome where this person Tan Howe Liang won silver medal through weightlifting. Hopefully, 10 olympics later and in the birthplace of the Olympics, Athens, she will win and do Singapore proud.

Sigh... I realise that Singapore has not even won a gold medal in the history of 44 years of Olympics. Maybe I should go and try. Like real... what sport. The sport of who can watch TV the longest. My sister can go and join the sport of who can sleep the longest.
