0.5.......to Infinity

0.5 ...... For me, 0.5 is now a number which sounds adversity to me and I become over sensitive towards it. How tiny and minimizing this number is when it comes to me now. I shall dig a groundless hole and drill myself into it forever so that I will not be ashamed by 0.5 this grouchy number. It was all started from yesterday....

I never stopped myself from being nervous when I reached at school very early. I have to spill the beans now and admit that I'm not a skillful chess player. And I shouldn't participate in the chess competition if it would only make me even more embarrassing and now turned into faceless when I have to face my friends' interrogations about my RESULT. Despite of it, I still remain my piece of stubborn to take part in the competition. My only purpose was to earn one more certificate of competition only but I was still willing to learn and absorb as much as I can about the playing strategy of chess. I'm interested in chess though although I'm a bad chess player....

If I could have such beautiful chess

The day was absolutely muggy yesterday as a surge of oppressive heat overwhelmed the place where the competition was held. I was almost stifled to death by the sultry heat as I sat at the last table. It was the 10th table, where the worst player should stay and live his life there forever and unfortunately I was destined to be that worst player. No wonder I couldn't break the doom spell and break the record of being the worst one. I was too awful for being sat at that table. It wasn't fair that only the fan at my table not function and I couldn't concentrate and focus well enough because of the torridity.

Altogether there were six rounds for the competition and the time lagged for so long because of it. Doubtlessly, I'd used up my brain energy to accustomed myself to the battlefield. Never was there a second for me to stopped from being nervous and I was covered with cold sweat all the time, and jittering as well. My mind was blank when I saw my enemy moved her chess confidently and mopped my chess one by one relentlessly. I was frozen to statue at once when I was defeated! Nevertheless, I managed to get 0.5 when my opponent was Jia Theng from our school. We both got 0.5 at that round as it was a draw. Poor me, and it was all I'd gotten in all the six rounds. 0.5 was a consolation for me though because at least I got a draw in one round but not 0 among all the rounds........I kept comfort myself with that thought even if it was actually a cheat..... SO WHAT and WHO CARES!!!

I managed to spot a handsome guy in the competition though and I admitted that I stole a few glances at him haha.... In spite of it, I wasn't able get to know his name and not even his handphone number.... And he cycled pass me when the competition was ended. I guessed that he lives near ACS Kampar only. With so much inarticulate bitterness, we left that school to go back to our own school. On the way, I became the laughing stock....... 0.5
