passion

i never had this feeling for a long time alr. that feeling of excitness in every min, satisfaction in making everyball and the committment to keep pool as my hobby. i never want to give up. i want to practice practice practice and join competitions.

i just love that feeling when both u and your competitor are so close in standards, trying our best to win each other in a friendly and open attitude purely for the love of the game. how we pot the balls, to how we position the ball to where we desire to how we hide the ball to make each other foul.

i learnt several stuff from pool practice on thursday and while playing pool with clement just now.

1) dont fear. once i start fearing and doubting in myself if i could make a shot, i missed 70% of the time. i find myself v susceptible to this weakness. im very affected by how ppl would view me when i play, if im good enuff to make a tough shot. but if im to put all those things aside and just focus on making a shot without any worries holding me, i find i its a very simple shot actually. reminds me to have faith in what i do. haha

2) if not confident of a shot, then dont shoot. no point bending lower, straining your eyes, going to awkard position which is not comfortable at all. just do a safety play which is easier and give that tough position to your opponent instead. haha.

oh man. i hope this passion could be used to serve and glorify God in one way or another. maybe next time can hold a CAC Annual Pool Competition or play gentlemently in every game, keeping calm in all situations. haha. who knows.

really yearn to improve!!
