[[A Mixed Vesak Weekend]]

As far as I can remember, I haven't had a long weekend whereby fortunes had been so mixed.

Was at Jurong East to meet up some friends for a soccer kickabout. We waited about half an hour before it was our turn to play, and once inside, the match hardly lasted even 10 minutes.

Nope, we didn't stop playing because we lost the challenge. A very unlucky Weihan tripped, slid forward and banged his head against the stony wall. From my position, I thought it was his leg which endured the impact, so you could imagine my horror when I went forward and saw blood smearing across the whole of his face.

As a precaution, we called for an ambulance. It was a pretty bad and deep cut, but we managed to stop the bleeding before professional help arrived. And a good thing it was only a cut, and his wound was closed with help from some surgery glue. His parents were, of course, visibly worried when they arrived, but I'm glad that there weren't really any complications and he remained very much okay despite losing so much blood.

In the evening, it was Fuhang's belated birthday celebration. It was great seeing some Nan Hua friends whom I don't see that often, and there's quite a lot of food too. It was a pity I couldn't join them in their late night activities as I have training today.

So sad right? Can't even get to have a proper long weekend. And it had to rain so heavily when we were allowed to leave.

FA Cup Final later on. Hoping for an upset, an West Ham victory. It looks pretty tough for them, but I don't see them rolling over against Liverpool. Come on, Hammers!!
