Competitions and Candies.
I hate losing to others and so, I hate competitions (any and every kind of it).
Competition is good in a way such that it fosters our competence thus, bringing our adroitness to another level. But the thing is that, our competitive spirit has to be controlled, or else it will affect us tremendously. Emotional turmoil, mental agitation and inferiority complex, to name a few are some detrimental effects of getting that spirit out of hand and that's what we call stress. Okay enough with that medicalesque explanation and all stuff. No one is keen in knowing it after all (booo).
Back to the main topic, competition (Man you have no idea how I detest rivalry in my life). I definitely have no problem to perform (read; perform) in front of a large audience, but when I set my mind to think "THIS IS A COMPETITION", everything seems not feasible for me to do at that very moment. Vying certainly gives me butterflies in my stomach, that's why.
You know how kids like bonbons and sweets because they look so luscious with all those colours and stuff? So I had this one competition (or game) back then when I was four or five years old (I can't remember it vividly) in which I had to compete with other kids for candies. Guess what I did? The moment they blew the whistle (Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit~), everyone started to run towards the candies. But apparently I stood still, watching the game afar because you know, I'm always not the least bit interested in competing (I was like; what should I do? What should I doooo? Don't move!). But urgh, I was forced to join the game in the last minute, or second whatsoever. And so I ran towards the centre of the imaginary field of battle (kononnya *sings* you better run, run, run, run, run).
You suppose to know how the ending went like. Heeee, as expected, I got nothing. No candies in my grasp (I said it daddddy I said it I hate competition!!!!). Hold on, I did get something in fact. Attention. Yea, attention. Because everyone was looking at this piteous kid at the centre of the field; left alone without even getting one single candy from the game. Oh well. What a pathetic scene to remember. =.="
I hate competition, that's it.
p/s:
Tak dapat confectionery, dapat one huge hamper sebagai ganti. Sebab Abah Pengetua time tu, hahahhaah. Ada I kisah? *evil laugh*
