Of exercise.
Wednesday, January 9, 2008
I woke up today to an aching body, neck down to the thighs. Bearable though, since I've experienced many like it before after practice runs in Bedok Resevoir. My shoulders cannot be pushed back without the slightest stretch of overused muscles. Ah well.
That was from 2 hours of badminton, 2km of running and 45 mins of rigourous tennis yesterday. Augh. On one hand, my lessons with the coach are more normal than Joseph's, and you wouldn't know what I would be refering to if you haven't read his blogpost. But anyway, Jason doensn't seem to talk to me as wierd as Joseph, so I count myself lucky.
Right now i am in the library again, awaiting with great nervousness, the tennis tryouts later. Several people I see have brought their rackets with them, so I feel a tad unprepared, but I guess bringing your own racket means you should be more qualified to play the sport, and I wouldn't want to make a fool of myself if I cannot cut it.
For some reason I am really REALLY nervous right now, for the tryouts,. or maybe it's the aircon that's adding to my chattering and shivering. Whatever it is, I'm splitting my fingers over crossing them, in hopes I make the team.
Nothing much to do now till 3pm, when the tryouts begin, so I read the newspapers, which they so kindly have copies of in the library. Updated everyday, of course. I think I have grown to this school, although skeptical initially at the shabbiness. But it turns out to be alright, apart from the freezing ICE auditorium, this school seems pretty viable for my JC term. I am even half heartedly hoping for Meridian now.
Ok my hands are humb already so I'm going to end off here. Bloody shivers. Hope this wasn't a boring post.
