i suppose we can make all the grand promises in the world, but the fact remains that when the time comes, we will do what we need to do. and these promises may just be thrown out of the window.

all the preconceived perceptions, beliefs, whatever, all can be thrown out of the window when the necessity arises.

we will do it when we need to; it's just a matter of when and how.

never doubt the desire and reason of man.

okay, idiots do exist. but let's just ignore that for a moment.

you know what to do, you know what you need to do. i am just here to remind you that.

as long as you have no regrets, then go ahead.

you will wake up when you need to wake up.
you will see the light when the light appears.
we only need to wait and see.

sometimes, it seems as though time is the eternal sentinel. as well as the eternal judge.

effort, timing, luck?

actually, alot of stuff are like so similar to each other, the concepts and all. like football and life and exams and alot of other stuff. so it makes you wonder if the world is just like many objects which look different, but are all the same at heart.

so maybe we can see ourselves as either attackers or defenders.

defenders are more pessimistic by nature. because they know that they only need to slip up once for the attacker to score. they are defined by this perception. and when the attacker beats them, they get all demoralised. all the effort would have counted for nothing, because one chance is all that's needed to kill you.

attackers are different. in life, you can go through all the shit, like how the defender keeps marking the attacker out, keeps tackling him. the attacker may feel demoralised, the attacker may feel weary. but deep down, he knows that all he needs is one chance. keep trying and trying and trying. one chance is all i need to score. and that chance will come.

i am an attacker through and through.

"He won't drop in midfield to get a touch of the ball or make unnecessary runs just to show he is around. Just wait and wait and wait, until the smallest of chances arrives and bang...it is a goal. A nightmare for a defender who thinks he has Huntelaar under control. Two goals and two assists were the quite sensational facts of his international debut."

they say this of huntelaar. that's the way to go.

the most important thing is to realise what is important to you. those will be the things keeping you afloat in the ocean. seriously alot of things people tell us are like... absolutely useless. they just cloud our judgement. we know best what we need. so we should be the ones deciding what we need to do. at the same time, we ourselves will know when we are going wrong and apply the brakes accordingly. if we can do all these, we are still in control. and that's most important.

dun let external things affect you. like i always say: you can take your pride and eat it.
