Did shit for Trampoline today.

Pressure builds around me.

Everyone says so. The seniors, the coaches, everyone says that this is the year WE can get the GOLD for RI Tramp C Div. The one they haven't won in a few billion years. The coveted trophy that we can get our hands on for the very first time.

And the captain is yours truly.

Nervous doesn't describe me. Freaking hell nervous describes me.

I can't help but feel i'll screw up. I know i can get an individual bronze, silver, or even gold. It's in me somewhere, but when pressure mounts, that feeling just goes away and my legs crumple into nothing at all.

Daojie said that we need to WANT the gold. we cannot just chase for it, we have to crave for it, to desire it, and do whatever we can to obtain that trophy, so we have to get our results tip top, and put in our 1000000 % in our routines whenever possible.

Also, pride is at stake. We are not representing ourselves, or our team, but our SCHOOL. That coveted green black white colours. We are representing RI, the oldest school in Singapore, and as captain, it's seriously quite mind boggling.

The team layout this year is one of the best we can have, and i can't afford to screw up any chances that we can grab.

Milton, with his ability to cope with other unexpected factors.
Leonard, with his focus.
Yuan Hao, with his extraordinary height and control of his own body.
Kwun Tong, with his squeaky clean routines and impressive moves.
And Yours Truly, with his extraordinary ability to screw things up.

But i think that it's not about beating anybody this time around, but it's beating myself. As from Spiderman 3, "The greatest battle lies within." and i need to beat that inconfident, screw-things-up Michael.

I need to believe in myself more.

Coach said, "Nobody is expecting you to get individual!"

He's wrong.

I'm expecting myself to.
