Busy Busy Busy....
Been rather busy last week.... so busy.. didn't have time to do much things...
Start of school term... trainings... school activities... lessons... new school opening...
Busy busy...
Stayed back in school last Wednesday to play DOTA and CS with my friend... haha... after lessons... because we both got laptop le.. can play play... haha... Awesome....
Then Thursday went for opening ceremony of the SIM residence campus... joined the Bossa Ball challenge.. got 2nd Runner-up.... also known as 3rd...
Abit disappointed... firstly.... I didn't manage to join the 3v3 basketball challenge... becasue I was away in Sabah at that time... and couldn't get a team to register...
Judging by the standards played this time round... I believe we have a better chance...
But then again... with my injured ankle... don't think i can play that well .... so well.. I guess it was meant to be that way....
Secondly... I didn't get much play-time for the Bossa Ball... abit sad.... -_-
It was rather fun... and it was onyl 5 people at a time... we had 6 in all... and with the first match starting without me... it soon stayed that way... until my friend exchanged to give me a chance to play... I only played a few halfs... didn't felt as deserving of the medal...
But then again... I played for the few matches that lead us on to compete for the final 3.... just that i didn't get to play the last 2 matches... of which my team lost... and so we got 3rd...
Hmm... maybe if i played it would have been different.... haha.... but i didn't have the chance... LOL....
Oh well.... disappointed... but it's over... at least i still got the medal and prize money... $100 for the whole team...
This is the team... "GoodFellaz"...
GoodFellaz... together with our un-offical photographer on the extreme right...
GoodFellaz jumping for joy~~~
On Friday... went to school early... had lessons.. then went for my first track training...
Initially... when i got there... training starts at 1830hrs... but my lesson ends at 1830hrs... and dragged abit... so I reached there late... spotted 2 groups of people training.. but I wasn't sure who to join... because I can't recognise anyone... don't know anyone... and they didn't wear any SIM vest or something... and so i sat at the spectator stand to watch them do their warm up for awhile...
Then I spotted my former coach from SRJC... he seem to be training the long distance runners... but i wasn't sure if he is coaching SIM as well... I later realised that the 2 groups are from SIM.. just that one is the long distance people... haha...
And i also saw a guy in the VS track vest... slightly recognise him.... from VS track and field... 1 year my junior...
Once they're done with their warm up, i went to the toilet to try to meet one of them to ask about which school they from... that's when the VS junior saw me.. and recognised me~~~
Haha... I was pleasantly surprised... because the last I remembered... he wasn't in any event that I would be in constant contact with... nor do i remember even talking to him before...
But well.. he recognised me... haha... and it made the conversation easier...
Soon... I went on to talk to the President... who corresponded with me on the email over my interest to join the team... and soon... i was in my attire... training... haha... with an recovering ankle...
The coach wasn't a thrower's coach... so i was left alone to train... and with my ankle this way.... I didn't dare to force too much....
I started off using the girl's 1kg discus.... to do some confidence throwing... before proceeding to my category.. which was 2kg.... Till JC... i only threw the 1.5kg discus... so 2kg was rather heavy and big....
The first few throws were abit hay-wire... fly here and there... but I soon start to get back the style... the distance wasn't very good... But at least i am progressing... haha... it was a good start... and with more training... I should be able to throw better...
At the moment.. there is only me for discus.. and 2 other guys for javelin... one of which is the VS junior... formerly from TPJC... forgot his name.. LOL... PB both 44m.... not bad..... haha...
So Mr Luis... on or not?
The other guy though... he seem multi-talented... can run.. can jump.. can throw javelin... and he tried his hand at discus... and seem to be able to throw as well...
Hmm... my positiion is at stack... haha...
Anyway... I'm sort of already signed up for the coming IVP... so I'll get my SIM track vest.. and also the track jacket.. something only given to CCA excos and altheletics... Awesome... thought i can never get it le... LOL....
The team has a practice of going for dinner together after training.. which is already about 2200hrs... althought it's good for bonding and all... and it's kinda late... and i don't think it's good for people like me... who have to reach school at 0700hrs the next day.... maybe i can skip the Wednesday session.. and go for the Friday one... since I am only attending training for these 2 days... skipping Monday becasue I have no lessons that day... and it is not economically and time viable to travel all the way there...
Afterall... to be honest... I compete just to compete... can't win anything... becasue I'm up against people who have been training consistently.. and also those from the altheltic clubs.... I've no chance against them man...
Oh well.. just do my best...
On Saturday... 3/4 of the day was spent at the zoo... attending some Church games event organised by a friend... Mr Li Kai... who sort of forced me to go... LOL....
I went ahead becasue i realised I haven't been to the Singapore Zoological Gardens... or at least I don't have any memory of it...
Spent a long time taking bus there... then joined into a group of total strangers.. except for Li Kai...
But well.. soon the ice began to melt.. then we were going around.. solving clues and all... I didn't do much... haha.. but correctly corrected 1 answer.... LOL...
Shot alot of animals.... pictures of them that is...
This is the White Tiger... going to be extinct species of the tiger...this was also the inspiration behind my email... snowtiger... haha....
This is the group... mainly made up of the church's memeber.... save for a few guest like me... haha... all about the same age group de...
By the way... I was taking this picture... so I wasn't in there... LOL...
Following that... rushed down for my Japanese class... was abit late... but still ok... and after that... went on to meet Esther and De Jian at Blk 85 for late dinner... catch up abit on each other's progress... since the 3 of us live within the vicinity...
And so.... yesterday morning... went for basketball....
This time round.. I played so much better... haha.. got back my form... played quite satisfactory... awesome... haha... although with a recovering ankle...
And basically after that... the rest of the day.. plus today... was spent at home... resting... sleeping... watching TV... blogging... haha...
Been rather hectic last week.... so got to rest more...
Well... that's about it.. go rest le... going to school tomorrow... at 0700hrs....
