No complains, the moment

Won the most 2nd incredible volleyball match of my life. Was 2-0 down, and we won back 3-2, with the last set being 19-17. Last set, we were even down 12-7, and found back to 19-17 to win the game. Incredible comeback. Let you all guess what was the 1st...

However, it was because we played lousily in the 1st 2 sets, thats why were had to come back from behind. In fact, even at the last set, I made 2 errors that almost caused the hall the match. Luckily, I had a player. "Of all people I trust, I trust you," thats what I was telling him for the 1st 2 games of IHG. We were both pretty ill, and him being more ill, I did not usher those words from to him that night. I was afraid putting too much 'trust' on him on such a match, on such an occasion, on his level of health condition might be too much for him. In the end, in the few moments, we still handed the match to him. The team effort was never in doubt still. We held each other up, including him, so that he could make the final blow the brought us to the finals. We should be proud of the amazing comeback. On the whole, it was a match I knew we won amazing, and yet disgustingly as well, as well as one that I played badly, but saved in the nick of time by my trustworthy teammates.

Finals is near, on the day that I am writing this in fact. Winning or losing is not as important to me as it might be to some of the other players in my team. Honestly, I am pretty exhausted. Injuries, mentally, physical, health wise... Later, it will all end. Everything. Shao Jun got the news from me that it might be my last competitive match of my life, meaning no more IHG for me next year. He did what he ought to do: persuade me to think about it some more, and hopefully carry on my volleybal endeavour. If I could remove all emotional attachments, it would come true very easily. Alas, I cannot. I have not yet made up my final decision yet. Maybe my ailing body will decide for me. Time will tell, as usual.

Lost my calculator. Sorry, I wrote no complains, but I had to. My own folly costed me a megre price, but I need every piece of wealth I can lay my hands on. Scrimped and saved for so long, including working for 2 days selling beer, but such a thing had to ruin my money saving moral. All the work, gone to not. Things I plan to do need money and time. That's what quiting IHG next year is suppose to do: free up me time to do stuff and to work. Of course, studies will be taken care of as well.
