2014 started awesome until I suffered a bad left knee injury in the middle of the year. That injury cost me heavily as it would mean giving up on my 3m springboard event permanently and I face a further risk of skipping 3 other major competitions that year. I was advised to take time off for the rest of the year to recuperate. I was devastated by the news and felt like I have failed my team mate and my coach. This was a setback I could not afford. I had to get better fast no matter what and not let this injury weaken my spirit. I willed myself to get back on my feet after a week of bed rest. The training was tough and painful. I cried tears of frustration and feared that I will fail to regain my strength again. It was one step forward and two steps back but I kept pushing. Slowly, I felt stronger and was soon fit enough to compete again. I made it to the top 6 in the Diving World Cup competition in Shanghai and eventually secured 1 silver & 1 bronze medal at the Commonwealth Games and 1 bronze medal at the Asian Games. I couldn't be prouder of my achievements and was glad I didn’t give up despite my injury! So if you ever feel like failure is upon you, don’t give up!
