i got new running shoes today! mizuno wave precision or something. it's bright orange all 'round the bottom! hahaha. it's the men's version. actually i prefer the women's one better, not so ostentatious, but the biggest size they had instore was just right for my feet, and you have to get a shoe that's slightly longer to allow for toe room, especially when you jambreak. yeah so had to get the men's one. new balance running shoes are okay but i didnt like the designs. lol.

hoho its the last weekday of the holidays. back to work and pts and stress soon. it's been such a delightful holiday - and my last one in secondary school, which means my last proper holiday. sigh. sometimes we wanna grow up fast but we forget all the responsibilities and fewer freedoms that come with it. i guess you cant have everything yeah. hm.

this holiday has been good - ive gone for almost every training, all the pt (physical training) has been good- i actually feel stronger now. im sprinting faster, and fielding better. yep and ive read great novels (read: louisa may alcott's Good Wives) and reread others. ive done quite abit of chinese, owing largely in part to the presence of chinese homework, hahaa! plus we're moving. and all the excitement about furnishing my room and all that. rather cool.

haven't been sleeping well though. always sleep so late and wake up equally late. i'll need to re-orientate my sleeping pattern a little bit haha or else i'll die when school reopens, in like, three days. and math test is next week, THT essay test to follow a few weeks after, IMCB attachment, then in august, EOIs! plus national day commitments and all that. fasten your seatbelt, rgs sec four student. it's gonna be a hard ride.

and before you know it, it'll be absolute mugging for chinese. delightful. and options. then COMES TRAINING WITH RJ!!! hahahaa! cos we're going to chiangmai on a softball trip end december, we'll have to train together for at least a month before that. i love training with seniors, or have i told you that before? xD

alright. time to go sleep and wake up tmr. life is chock-full of cycles. even blogging is. you go through the same procedures: log in, click the blog you wanna blog in, type, think, publish, log out. woohoo!

BYYEEE. sleep early people.

haven't gotten anything done at the moment, maybe except having gone for many trainings. lol this week, i came for training three days in a row. i rock right, haha cola too actually. we came on the same days. tues and thurs were rg training, wed with rj.

so happy to see the seniors again! to crap with them and catch up on stuff... haha training with them was fun. as coach put it: " my training style with rj is different, so you all should come and see." hahaha the drills were fun and quite funny at times... their fielding is as zai as ever. seriously if you ever want to see grace + fearlessness + zainess in softball fielding all at once, watch deborah! she's so zai its scary. and annabel's throws are super straight and fast. i almost died the first time she threw to me. haha. xianhui's batting too. all the time i was in infield i had almost nothing to do. lol. she hit far far over my head xD

lol resh also came. she had just rejoined softball so she didnt have the advantage of a few more months of training like the others did, but she still hasnt lost her skills, i say happily.

bryan (spelling?) the ri sec3 pitcher was so fast we asked him repeatedly to slow down when we were pitch-bunting and slap-hitting. hahaha deborah even commented, "that's NOT GIRL ENOUGH!" lol!!

the guys are so freaky. one of them, standing at home plate, hit the machine ball all the way to the sand pit. greatness. standing at the other end of the field all we could do was just swivel our heads around and watch the ball fly.

i have always thought our field was big, but now im not so sure.

hahaa. um today no training cos mr ben cancelled it of his own accord -.- shall not say anything.

but since today there's no training i stand a better chance of being able to go for tomoro's rj training. that's four trainings in a week, i say proudly.

my muscles are crying out in agony though. coach has gotten this idea into his mind that there must be pt after every training. not that i mind, it's just that i can't stand static exercises, and my tailbone is hurting alot because of all those situps and other lie-down exercises on the (hard) floor of the mini-amphi. ouch.

oh and he just introduced this twist-back thing. the problem is people who walk by can't resist taking a second look. i mean can you imagine seeing thirty over girls from all levels standing on the steps of the miniamphi twisting their backs ffrom side to side in unison, all looking forward as if they were trying to seduce somebody, counting at the same time? it's terribly embarrassing i tell you.

and i don't really like a certain teacher. 'nuff said.

alright got to go. i've taken up snacking now. it's a bad habit and unhealthy and fat-inducing to boot, but when you train so hard every week, you just can't resist a bit more food can you? haha.
