A flop. Haha

Today.
Was an interesting day.
Haha.

Well, i had all comers today, and i went hoping to get at least a top 8, though i secretly wanted a top 3. :P Hehehehehehe.
Well, it didnt quite work out that way.

I went for discus actually feeling quite good about it, and having the good throw feeling.
I felt rested up and ready to throw.
BUT.
My throws werent good.
My furthest throw was 25.15m.
AND. I didnt get into top 8. LOL.
Which shows the standard has now risen.
And its time to stop taking discus as a joke if i really want a medal.

What a joke, seriously.
HAHAHA.
Hannah didnt get top 8.
No one believed me la can.
Lol. I told Ms Tan and she thought i was lying.
HA!
Aye. Even champions can fall once in awhile.

Well, considering its not my main event, its totally fine that i dont ge top 8.
The problem is, though its not my main, my discus can still make it to the top few.
Cos of my brute strength.
In fact, everyone expects me to be able to throw 30m easily with my brute strength.
Sigh.. I think i just need to get the whip in discus.
After that, i'll be okay. Haha. (:
Ah well.
Thank God anyway.

Looks like a one day rest does work for me. (:

After comp, which took horrendously long because of the number of ppl there, i chit chatted with some throwers and all, and then went to bath and wait for my sis.

By the time my sis was done, it was 5+. but i decided to go to church anyway. So i did. And i went into the halls at 5.45pm. Thankfully, sermon hadnt started yet and they were still worshipping. The moment i walked in, i felt the presence of God. So i went to a place and sat by myself and started worshipping God. And the moment i did that, i felt the spirit starting to minister to me already. It was amazing.

Oh yes. Special mention of Haruki that walked all the way to my seat to pass me a bulletin. (: So very sweet of him, really. (: And Samuel who walked me to my seat and asked abt my comp. Haha. (: Awesome CHes. ;)

Like i said, i had been struggling to keep myself on my feet, keep myself from falling. And i realised that all i had to do, was count on God. So when the songs came, esp counting on God, the faith in me rose. My trust in God rose. I knew where the issue layed and i decided to count on God cos that was all i ever needed.

It was amazing how everything in that short service spoke to my heart. Like it tugged at my heart strings and hit the nail in the head for many things. The Holy spirit convicted me about many things i had been thinking about and have thought about and he brought it to surface. All i had to do was to trust God, really. And trust that the Holy Spirit knows what he's doing.

During altar call, i responded cos i knew indeed it was something i needed to respond to. And 2 leaders prayed for me, Bro Vic and Sis Gwen. Bro Vic's prayer was really powerful and it hit the nail in the head. He prayed many things but one of the things that struck me was that i would be placed on places of great influence so i may lead ppl to go the right way. And sis Gwen's prayer was one that was laid on top of his. That the peace and gentleness of God and the Holy Spirit was upon me. And that God is going to use me to let his peace and gentleness to minister to someone sometime soon.

How amazing is that?

An outspoken person with a gentle spirit.

Quite amazing huh.

But it doesnt mean i need to act demure. HAHA. (:

Ah well. I think that it was really amazing, and indeed, God's presence was there. (:

After church, i rushed off to UWC to go for their musical with Jumana and her friend, bryan. It was quite an interesting musical and i realised that the main lead had a low vocal range, like me. Like she never went beyond a certain note, but still sounded good. And her vocal range was somewhat like mine. :P Quite cool huh. Might be a sign. :P Ah well. (:

Well, i dont know how to end of nicely to this one.
But i guess its been a relatively interesting day.

AM seriously considering training more.
I need it if i seriously want to hit 13m and get a 30 for discus.
God help me.

Im Counting on God.
On my sports as well.
