Friday:
spent the morning working out in NTU,
2 X 2k Ergo,
Arnold presses 4X10
Seated Row 4X10
Then headed to the contract school to settle some outstanding admin, and had a chat with Roz, Jassie, QY and Matt.
after that i headed back, washed up and rushed to wheelock NYDC to celebrate faizal’s bday.
nice to see everyone again, chatted for a while, placed some bets on the match that night, and headed to paragon for some coffee/tea at Ah Mei.
Had a nice chat with ah boy as well.
hitched a ride back with Derek, Bei, and Ah Chye.
Sat:
Coaching with TL, and the sparks. I’m wondering if i’m losing my touch. sigh. they’re just not performing as well as i think they can. how much is the manpower issue, how much is me ? I’m worried and disappointed, but they can only get better.
but there were good sets in between, and those give me hope. if only they dared to reach out and go long, as i have been telling them to time and again. just tat bit more.
ran the bridge route, and did stairs sprints at the national stadium, almost puked my guts out after the stairs sprints, but it was good. distance abt 6-7km.
after that went to suntec and novena square to walk around and waste some time, picked up some items that i needed from carrefour (batteries and toiletries) and then headed to Jin’s place for the dinner / housewarming.
food was good. as usual, and the company, Excellent. played loads of wii, ate alot, played taboo, drank a bit more, played Jenga. heh. loads of good clean fun. Trent was a blast too. Apparently he’s a golf pro, and he’s gonna hook me up with some golf gear. yeah!
Sunday:
Had a quick breakfast, and it was off to alumni training. despite the feeling that people would no show cuz of the rain, most of us did show up, and we had a great session. really good. did the 6×3mins sets, 2 race courses, and some other things. nice.
then i bummed around for a bit, and then I had a session with the sparks again. really lost my cool at them today, and if i could take it back… would i ? maybe. just maybe.
just feel that they are taking too casual an attitude towards the db thing. yes you are volunteers, but still. you made a commitment. keep it. QED. if i didn’t take that team, i’ld have a lot more time to myself. as in seriously, a lot of time to enjoy with my alumni clique after trainings, with my Lilies after their training. met up with pals for lunch and all. but no. i also made a commitment to you. is it too much to expect regular attendance? i do not think so.
sigh.
After that had a late lunch at the banana leaf restaurant(opposite the bus park). Good stuff, headed back home to sleep.
and here i am. 8 pm and blogging my thoughts down before i forget everything.
and its a new school day in 11 hours.
faugh.
I’m happy yet depressed at the same time cuz of this weekend.
