CoMpEtiTiVe SpiRiT

I believe competitive spirit will help us to achieve our goals in our life career. Competition between each others brings out our real talents.In a game everyone wants to be winners,no one wants to be losers.As i'm a Hockey player I know the competitive spirit well and I've experienced it very well. Discipline is the most important thing to a game.Because if we start to misbehave in a game definitely the game will be lose.Our moral should be play hard until the referee blows final the whistle.While during the match if we misbehaves it's a time waste and it's a reason for change our moral to hit the opponents,not to win the match.I've experienced the competitive spirit negatively and positively. :) o_O

Zinedine Zidane was the former France captain.He is glad he was sent-off for his head-butt in the 2006 World Cup final because he has not had to live with regret over escaping punishment.Zidane received a red card for butting the Italy defender Marco Materazzi in the chest during the 2006 final.It's the last match of his career,which Italy won 5-3 on penalties after a goalless draw.As a Captain he should control his quick anger in order to win the world cup in 2006.How ever he played very well in the tournament.

WE MISS YOU ZINEDINE ZIDANE <3>

You are the real hero............

My First Job Interview


It was the very first day that I'v been to a job interview in my life career.
I applied as Cadet Officer in Sri Lanka Air Force.It's not a easy job for me do,but I never gave up in that situation.

My heart starts to pound like machine.Then i prayed my God to hold my hand until the end.After i prayed my heart beat came back to normal.After that i kept my leg outside to go for my interview.The interview was held at Ekala camp.

The officers checked my height,weight,vision and my educational qualification certificates.Fortunately I'v no problem with any of those.They gave me a general knowledge test and I'v done it so easily and so quickly.After the test they called me for the main interview.Either the I felt uncomfortable in the beginning I faced to the interview board comfortably. :) After the interview i had to wait for my results.I was waited 6 hours to know my results.That was really disgusting.

The officer came and he started to read out the name those who've got selected.I was really afraid in that time.Finally they called out my name.They've selected only 20 people out of 200.That was a great achievement in my career.

I thanked my heavenly father and my ever loving my mother for encouraging me all the time.
