Letters to my future self

30th jan - 9th place

bah, its happened again. i failed to make top 8 for the 2nd time. quite disappointing, i mean if my tie breakers are slightly better, i would be confident that i can be placed at least within the top 4.

having a bad pile of cards isnt a gd excuse, cos i know that the pile isnt awful, its actually playable. i jus probably didnt try hard enuff. if only there had been 1 7-0 and not all 6-1's then i might have been able to sneak in. sigh.

lessons learnt: 2-2 aft round 4 signals a drop to play constructed. i choose to ignore this and remain confident of myself that last 2 occasions this happened, both times i failed to make top 8, doing 10th and 9th respectively

now i'll have to wait til next month, dont even know if the format's changed then, cos a new set might be out. bleh.

then again, we had a huge turnout today, for sealed we had 28 ppl and constructed had a whooping 56 ppl, double of the number of ppl who signed up for sealed. and to think this 56 ppl didnt include wei tian and his bunch, which might have made the number much closer to 60.

pcq's arent so easy to play anymore.

aft i crashed out, i left suntec, hung at meridian for a while then went over to plaza sing to shop for clothes. its only then i realised that i'm actually quite inexperianced at buying clothes, i really suck at it. i mean most of the time either my mum buys my clothes or she'll have to drag me along to buy clothes. these time round she jus gave me money and asked me to buy for myself.

i totally couldnt tell apart the differences btw clothes for female or male (yes yes, all of u can laugh right now). i could only make guesses and hopefully aft i leave the shop, none of the shop assistants will be rolling on the floor laughing. bought a pair of jeans and cargo pants for 71.50. that leaves 3 more tops and 1 bottom to go. if i'm adventurous enuff, i might go over to far east tomorrow and walk around.

for now,
