It's getting to me.


Suddenly felt like blogging, so here i am.

Prelims have started as most of you who frequent this blog should know. So far, so good. But its only ONE practical. And there are more crap along the way. So far i'm keeping up to my schedule. the Science practical was okay, thanks to memory work of them notes. I guessed most of the conclusion although the observation was kind of sketchy. The physics was quite easy, hoping to get a good pass for science. =D

Then went bowling for two straight days, my money...bye bye *sob*. haX. I always wondered how i play, i play better when i'm not in 'competing mode'. or when play for another person to make him/her lose. hahaX.

I just can't forget parkour, its too heavily embedded into my mind. Every tissue, every muscle, every blood and sinew running thorugh my body wishes to juz run. Run free. Run from everything. Ever had that feeling where you could just run, run to forget. Kind of like Forrest Gump.

Disn't really mention the workings of last week did I? The gang and I went for the school's mid-autumm festival. Basketball group went to play basketball, so i decided to do some of my own training. Training involved being for the first time to perform a saut de chat long ways of a table, and dash too. After that cycled/ race on to school with meng and me in the front. Could say it was pretty much boring. Oops, when melvin read this better not get mad. haX. But it was downright, BORING. Did basically nothing but listen to karaoke. And see melvin and clarence eat *then throw-up on pomelo. Things didn't really heat up until close to the end of then night. There were problems, typical but was really unnecessary. Why? Because it's your classic case of best friend betrayal. Who need enemies when you have 'friends' like that. Was really damn pissed at that time, one person's problem to be shared among two or three people can blow up to a commotion thanks to UNNECESSARY people. I don't know who but for goodness sake. Unless they want you involved, there's no need to be an 'extra'. In the media you get measly lunch wages for that.

And because of that commotion, problems spread although minimally to others. See what being a jackass do to others? In a sense its spreading to me too, it poisons my mind, seeping through whatever crevice it can sink through. Its hard to keep focused. I remember i was close to a painful bail when she appeared in my mind, in mid-movement. You can already guess i lost focused and am now nursing a sore back silently, emotionlessly. Why? I ask myself. I laugh at the answers I give myself. There's a point in time i feel envy and disgust...disgust cause i envy...envy because i disgust. It's a never ending cycle.

Oh sweet angel of mercy, with your grace like the morning, wrap your loving arms around me.
Dear unfaithful I will teach you, to be stronger.
Dear ungraceful I will teach you, to forgive one another.
Dear unloving,I will love you.

A/N: Osiris going slightly emo. haX.

Jamming @ ECP


Okkz... Went to jam at ECP (estate) today with Alimoon. Its hard to describe... A gathering of like-minded people just doing parkour. *and tricking*. Jamming with experienced traceurs have their advantages, they monitor your movements and help you to work on them, improving.

Dash, Saut de Chat, Passe Muraille, Reverse, Roulade. All these done in a day...freakin cool.

Alimoon and his high cut shoes.
Ever seen a traceur in high cuts...never. lol...but apparently he learns fast? Very nice.

Wes was like showing how to do a pass muraille. You get this feeling of confidence when you see others do it. Because it is possible. You just have to learn HOW. Learn it, Do it, improve on it. =D

Went to mac's for dinner. tt's all. bye.

Prelims.


Yes, you heard me. Prelims, as in preliminaries as in preliminary examinations. They start this Friday with english, not like its any problem. *laugh* So far it seems i have only been doing chemistry and e- maths and bio. Never even touch my humanities yet. NOOO!!! I think i'll start working on them tomorrow.

Yeah! This saturday going out to jam at ECP, after morning's session. Can't ditch the guys since they won't be coming to ECP with me *sob* Confidence is increasing in me, but can never forget i'm still a grunt. =P Perhaps ECP there have a place for me to practice the dash.V. So far its like a second jam i'm gonna 'participate' in and not just watch. *laugh*

It's a short post today. Gonna' keep it that way.

Remedial --> Prelims--> O' levels & most of all, Le Parkour.


Title says it all. About one week after holidays to prelims then1 mth to O' lvls. Very fast paced. Can't say i'm ready, there there is slight improvement. Need to score lots of As' to get to where i want to go. jeez. Its hard to decide my future as of currently, i seem to hit a detour everytime.

As the O' levels draw nearer i think that i'm slowly losing it. I can't think straight, too many thoughts running through my mind at the same bloody time.
To do well in exams; To really understand myself, my feelings, to express what i wish to say; To push myself to the limit.

Life IS like Parkour, to every obstacle, there is a way around it.

I just got the feeling of what it is like to use a 'Dash Vault'. Its a really funny feeling. It's like letting yourself go into the unknown because your feet is appraching the obstacle first, only your hand placement will depend on your peripheral perception. When appraching the move you have to let yourself 'go'. Release yourself, that is the dash. Powerful yet a relaxed movement.

i really want to practice/ train my passe-muraille. Just can't get the hang of it. I will strive to make any movement my own.

"C'est comme si votre corps avait toujours ete en pilotage automatique et que vous decouvriez soudain que vous etes capable de le piloter vous meme"
"It's as if your body has always been on autopilot, and you've discovered for the first time that you are able to control it."

Enough about Le Parkour, haha, but when you think about it, what started out to be fun eg. jumping, vaulting. It has turned into something more than that. I want to be better, it's not some half-ass sport than you can pick up and go. There's more to that, philosophy, history, evolution. Even as kids we play around the playground with elements of parkour. We may not notice it but the human body is capable of doing so much.

Parkour responds to a deep-seated need of humans: to move. It's an art that demands the true spirit of a warrior, and offers pure action to its practitioners.

I hope now that whoever reads this understand why i choose parkour to be part of my life. Injuries come and go, but experience never leave. The urban jungle is my playground. And as for friends who say they love parkour but never bother to try and actually perform a movement, well, please understand that only by doing will you truly appreciate the art. ANYONE can parkour, be it any race,gender,bodysize, religion etc. ANYONE CAN.

On a brighter note, i'm feeling pissed about school cause it has made me miss jams that i really wish to have attended. Sad. lol.

"When all this is over, and i ask of you. Will you be mine?"
Yea, i'm being sappy shit. Screw you =D

This entry is over and done with. Nite guys.
