Finally lost my PR streak in Singapore yesterday, where I was only competing in 3BLD and FMC. However, as I've already got decent PRs in both events last week in Philippine Champ, I understand that it isn't very easy for me to get that again. Especially I didn't sleep very well on my red-eye flight to Singapore at weekend, I think my poor performance on Sunday afternoon is very understandable. At this point especially after Philippine Champ where I have got pretty decent PRs in most events already, I found that it might be better for me to take some rest from comps and actually get to focus on learning some new skillsets, let say like full OLL or Yau5.

Interestingly enough, my next comp is gonna be like a month later, where I am also doing 2 events only, and for this time are 3BLD & 4BLD. So for the upcoming month, it might be better for me to rest from doing random solves, but to allow myself to take enough rest and focus on 4BLD. I've got a mean in 3BLD already, and a better PR single will be cool enough already for 3BLD. But for 4BLD, its pretty rare for me to actually have chance to focus just on 4BLD only. It is also worth mentioning that after I've lost my PR streak in Singapore yesterday, rather than being desperate, my mental barrier not to go comps with few events is kinda gone. I don't have to worry about keeping my PR streak anymore, and just to enjoy the comps without putting too much pressure on myself.
