last of mouse rants (IV)

okay, i'm filled with anguish, devastation. so upset that i have to msg wl, eileen c, sammi and jiaxin. and i just had a "consoling session" frm alee.

sn is dropping back to div2.

actually, i half-expected it alr. but when i have to face the truth, it's painful. very painful. and it's even more painful to watch the 3mice run.

below is wad happened in chronological order (it's very long):

morning, yr1s' 700's front sensor's wiring was off. so we actually headed down to gwc W/O TUNING FASTRUNS.

AI WASN'T THERE. irritating, so the yr1 had to rush down to AI, so did ying hui.

shufen's mouse ran 1st. i had the most hope in her mouse. and i really cant bear to see it man. her mouse jerks like nobody's business and her fwd-before-diagonal seemed off. she got a score though. 70++

my heart sank, really sank and i started crying. of course, i din cry in front of them all. i hid and cry. but i cldn't cry for long cos tj's 900 was next.

so i helped the yr1 with a heavy heart. it's a screwed piece of metal lah. it din even complete exploring 1/8th of the maze. it was so freaking screwed.

next was mr blue smiley. another terribly screwed piece of metal. and they din freakin tune the sensors. i was so so pissed then, but i just kept quiet. if i ever blow then, i'll just shout like a mad woman.

then the 96 mouse. it jerks like some earthquake. but the speed was fast enough to get into finals, the path was good. then it kept crashing at F3. CRASH AT FORWARD 3 SQUARES?! obviously, they din even tune the fastruns at all. the funny thing is that their fasrun limit is still 99 when they din even tune fastrun at all. i could have just slaughtered someone on the spot.

i was just so so upset and agitated then alr.

the most problematic mouse: ying hui's mouse was last in the div to run. hurhur. it's the freaking hardware that conked out.

i almost broke down then. really, but the proud me refused to cry in front of the jnrs.

then i remembered sth abt what alee told me long time ago,
"when juniors fail, the seniors are partly to blame."

then i felt worse lah, duh.

obviously all 5 mice din make it to finals. i can kicked myself. i could have just given the yr1s my prog for 700. it would have gotten them into the finals, but i refused to.

and i cry my way home. yea, so on the bus, i was a terrible sight, crying over the phone.

anyway, im not really upset for the tj cos the yr1s are weak in mm but much stronger in racer and they have a backing (2, in fact). they prob can get top 5 in feb (they promise me tt).

as for sn, wah liao. HEART PAIN. damn pain sia. we're heading back to div2. how shitty.

ARGH!!! sobx
