CUHK : POLYU

16:0

good gracious, a perfect game (i.e. poly U didnt hv any hits, didn’t get on any bases – indeed perfect literally)

kudos to CUHK’s Li Kwan who dominated on the mound, big time.
10 strike outs, out of 12.

To summarize my performance, be it good or bad:
Batting: Pop fly out, bunt, walk.
Fielding: Played 2nd base: made the last out: ground out to first. Ah, this peculiar feeling.

I’d say although I wasn’t producing up to my expectations(ridiculous pop fly, RBI=0, what the heck?!), it sure was one of the best game I’ve ever played, as in the experience of this whole atmosphere with the team’s roaring spirit, from expecting a mere marginal win, to shutting them out every single inning.

We’re going to the finals.

Yes, THE inter-university softball game final. THE single game everybody’s been working hard towards. THE goal of 6 softball days a week. Really sorry for hitting like crap yesterday. I promise I’ll do better, way better. HKU, you watch.

Never under-estimate the effects of joining a school team. Sense of belonging sky-rockets.

There’s so much more I wanna say. But I’m pretty tired from 7am practise, and I gotta start doing my PCAR ECG report due today, which has been lying supine beside me for the past hour, screaming for my attention. So i’ll leave it to someone else.

Softball is by no means a substitution for baseball, instead it’s yet another avocation to complement my physical well-being.

finally over

It was so cool to see 130 medics wearing suit to class,
and every single presentation has been so professional.

A round of applause to my dear group mates who has been ever so helpful — AlexandradraNgHoiCC, Yvonne + Yvonne, Sub, ar Ma, it’s the academic information you have researched on which made everything possible; Winnie, for your amazing speech, really really fantastic; Last but DEFINITELY not least: JASPER Wut Gei Wong!! We’ve both spent 3 sleepless nights together in front of our mac’s, and your flash presentation was amazing! Really lively!!! Our presentation was a success and it was such a pleasure working with you guys, and thanks for the absolute tolerance on my bad temper during the final 3 days!

Unfortunately

It looked like some people, probably including the judges, thought that the 3D animation we used was a bogus downloaded elsewhere.

I don’t mean to brag or be an arrogant arse, but in case anyone is still wondering:

I really, really did make the whole 3D animated model from scratch all by myself — from the 3D and transparency editing, modelling, and animation rendering in Blender3D, also the colour contrast and effects control in Adobe Photoshop, to combining the animation and adding text and effects and the control panel in Macromedia Flash — an authentic liyeung.com creation.

Really sorry for my endless moaning, I find myself annoying too, I understand it would be egotistic to proclaim the originality of my so-called masterpiece in here, like no one in their righteous minds would go ‘Hey look, I made the powerpoint myself!’ during the presentation, duh, we medics are not that narcistic. It’s never my intention to complain about my sleepless nights since everybody in class has spent equally much time on this SSM presentation. I’m not claiming to be an IT expert cos I’m far from it, nor am I craving an acknowledgement. De facto I don’t really care about what others think now; it’s the judges that matter. I do not wish that this incident would consequently provoke a huge drop in our effort mark, which means my 3 sleepless nights of work down the drain: that without doubt doesn’t only affect me, but my whole group as well, likewise ruining everybody’s hard work. Should this happen I’ll feel bad for the rest of my life.

Well, I already do, I felt crap for not attending softball training afterwards, while this saturday’s game is ever so important to the team.

hell no, I should be happy for being able to get some sleep now, walking zombie.

Finally, I sincerely apologize for looking so cocky, or inch, on stage. But as anyone would expect, after staying up for 72 hours straight with just some occational naps, it’s hard to maintain a buoyant facial expression.

by the way, the game of the year held tomorrow (10 March 2007)will be:

CUHK vs HKU

@HKU 11am

please do come to show your support if you had the time. I honestly would appreciate it. That’s one single thing cuhk is lacking sometimes, don’t you all want to kick hku’s arses and show them what we’ve got?
