The Spark that Ignites: yeap! him again...

"Firdaous! push Firdaous! keep going, keep going! faster2!"
"awak nak lwn ngn dia nih nanti! camni ke awk nk lwn ngn dia? push!"
"yes!, beautiful! that's it!"
"haaaa.... mcm tu la.. lawan pakai otak.."
"panjang! distance2!!"
"weh panjang! mung sidestep, masuk BOOM! muke die.. mung igt panjang.. budak nih counter attack die laju.. mung kene pandai maing sidestep ngn die.. jangang maing attack bodo mung jee.."
"panjang! laju panjang! haa! lagu tuh panjang!"

those are few words from my coach and my teammates especially my team captain.(yg slang tganu tuh sume die yg kabor... fuh, doh pandar cakak tganu doh aku nih... dok kawang ngang org tganu blake)

yup, i can feel the tense... UiTM is the overall defending champion for Sukan MASUM since 2004 if im not mestaken. i want to be one of the gold medal contributers and i have to win gold for UiTM. but, it might be difficult as from what i heard, i will have to face a national taekwondo player in my categoty.. He has fought in many international tournament and has won sevaral titles including the gold medalist for junior world taekwondo championship in 2004. he can be considered as among the undefeated fighter in the national level.

me afraid of him? hm... a bit.. errr.... nope! he has nothing to be afraid of!

i will be playing in my homeground (UUM, Sintok, Kedah) and i will beat him... i'm going to kick his a** (pep talk la konon..)

will i make it? will i able to beat him up? will i able to really explode in the ring?

i fought him in Kejohanan Tekwondo Remaja kebangsaan 2005 which was held in Kuala Terengganu. as expected, i lost to him with almost a knockout during the semifinal match.a hard impack from his jumping back thrust kick directly to my sternum really made me felt like all my ribs was slightly bend to the inside... lucky it didnt break them.. and i was able to stand up again, and lost with point counting.. phew..

that was in 2005, and now is 2009...
we are now older,
we are more matured in our pshycology, skills,
he may have train more than me since he is a national player..
im no longer like what i used to be when i was 17,

i might have to work harder as what my coach, who knows him as his junior in the National team said:

"atleast klw awak tak menang, you can give a good show to all your crowd..."

ok, that means a lot.. i dont want to lose again to this guy and i hope that i will meet him in the final round and not during the preliminary round..because at least i could a get silver medal for UiTM but at the same time i have to be realistic. aarrghhh!! there are also more good fighter other than him that i have to think of. enough!
i don't want to think more of this. i just want to stay fokus... and to all my friends, please pray for me and wish me all the best for the game. 8D

during the training session...

Take 5!!! and every one will grab their water bottle..
