Many things happened this year. I developed some sort of problem with my knee. I went to the doctor and the doctor said i had the 'Osgood-Schlatter' disease. Sounds scary? Not really. i have this because I overuse my legs and I don't really stretch. Stretching is vital for any sports. So basically, all the stress was released on my knees. Luckily, I can still run but not as fast as before. So this year for athletics, our school did much better. Me and Malcolm ran in the 200m event. Both of us succesfully made it to the finals. So in the finals, I got 6th place whereas Malcolm got 4th place. So now I can say I am the 6th fastest in the whole Petaling Jaya!! Now comes the worst experience of my life at SKTM, school sports. I was taking part in the High Jump event. I made it quite far. A few jumps later, there were 5 people left. So it was my turn. 1st attempt. My legs were only a few centimetres from passing the height. 2nd attempt. As I was running, I could feel something was wrong. too late. As I jumped....CRASH!!! my knee hit the pole!!! Furthermore, the Osgood-Schlatter is a long term illness. So I lied on the mat, unable to move. As I felt my knee, It felt something like a hill! So, the teachers carefully carried me off the mat. It felt weird. many people crowding around and staring at me. So, the teachers put me at the side while another teacher, Puan Inthira was calling my father. On the bright side, I got 4th place!! A few minutes later, my father came. He quickly drove to the hospital. After making an appointment, we went to see the orthopedic, Dr. Gan. He said i would have to do an MRI. After doing the MRI, the doctor told me that my knee was almost fractured but it wasn't. So the doctor said I would have to use crutches for at least 2 months. So that means NO running for the school sports. Then soon came sports day. I could only encourage them. Oh! i was the leader for Yellow House (Kenari). So I had to go to school with my crutches for a few months. A few months passed in a flash and now I am fine but still have the Osgood-Schlatter thing. Then soon came the UPSR trials. It was quite hard. After many exams, the came UPSR!! It was easier than the trials! Thankfully, i got 5A's!
So, that was my life in tahap 2. I wish all my friends out there good luck and THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!!
