NOVICES 2013

Just back from Novices and I must say I really did enjoy myself through the entire process. It was a fun experience even though I didn't make it past round of 32. But then again, I got past Poules and got into DE!! That's totally mission accomplished for little me~ 

So its really mixed feelings I guess? Disappointed cos I could have done so much better. But super happy to be able to get into round of 32 (though I still think that a lot of luck is involved in this). :P 

Beyond touched by the seniors that stood behind me and cheered me on when I thought everything was falling apart. Knowing that hoyang, claudia, yushi, suyuan, ben, jinru, yongchee and weixiang, are cheering for me and that I have them to fall back on, regardless of the results, make me feel accepted and wanted I guess. They gave me the courage to press on and fight for what I wanted. They gave me the assurance that everything will be fine. They are part of what made it possible for me to enter DE. 

Got to tame my nerves next sunday though. Scary as it seems to stand alone on the piste, I think I can do it. And I will continue to prove myself wrong. That i'm not capable.

Says who?
