BRFC 2013 Interview: Jacqueline Sng



Blackswrugby: What is your secret to being so strong? Share please!
Jacqueline: Simple, one cup of iron nails, one tablespoon of rocks and a teaspoon of sugar for flavour. Blend it up and drink first thing in the morning. Kidding......I have been hitting the gym since I was pre-pubescent. I just think the muscles and basic strength stuck with me even though I rarely lift anything now. *attach ''do you even lift meme''*

Blackswrugby: What sport were you in before rugby?
Jacqueline: I did sprint kayaking for about 10 years and also played tennis.

Blackswrugby: How did you pick up this sport?
Jacqueline: Tao Jing and Sarah-Jean, my classmates in uni tried many times to convince me to play. However, I was still paddling competitively and didn't want to risk any broken bones. It was during my final year in uni that I decided to try out something new and gave rugby a shot.

Blackswrugby: Was it difficult making the transition?
Jacqueline: To be honest, it felt weird touching people (and even worst tackling) at the start. In kayaking, we stay in our own boats and race lanes so the idea of human contact and invading someone's space was so alien to me. I had to learn to work in a team and tells myself it's okay when someone pulls you down onto the ground because it's part of the game and not take it too personally.

Blackswrugby:  Share with us what's going on in your head before each tackle.
Jacqueline: EAT GRASS WHOEVER IS OPPOSITE ME!


Blackswrugby: Favorite thing about rugby?
Jacqueline: Every game is different and so dynamic. I like that it is not an easy feat and it challenges me physically and even more, mentally.

Blackswrugby: Bruises, injuries and all, do the kids and colleagues in school get curious?
Jacqueline:  Concealer is my best friend. The one from M.A.C covers almost any bruise that you have. They know nothing.

Blackswrugby: Describe yourself in one word. 
Jacqueline: Awkward

Blackswrugby: What is your favourite super hero if any and why?
Jacqueline: Not really into super heroes and all the shenanigans. But I guess if you could fly or teleport it would be very awesome, Travelling from place to place is really one of the greatest pains in my you know what.

Blackswrugby: If there's one thing you can do to change the world, what would that be?


Jacqueline:  I'll bring Michael Jackson back to life so he can whoop Justin Bieber's and One Direction's ass for polluting my ear with bad songs. (Sorry Unagi!) Seriously...I have no idea. Why must you ask such a philosophical question???
