tired tired tired.
i didn't blog yesterday. not because i was too tired to do so. but it was due to some problems with the internet. it became so damn slow. then i decided not to do it.
well to start off, tuesday was quite eventful for me. firstly, the night before, i asked her out. haha. yes, i finally plucked up my guts to ask her out. for a simple show. i know its really really quite boring to ask her for this kind of thing, but i'm such a dumb person at this things. i'm not pulling your leg. and after i smsed her to ask he rout, i started to feel dumb about how i asked her out. ugh. but she still said she's okay with it, so we are going to catch POSEIDON this thurs evening. during tuesday afternoon, during my hour break, i headed to the gym with my new NUTRIFIRST singlet which i got for free. the design's kind of cool. a big bar-code right in front. yepp. i was teaching some year 1 girls the correct technique. it's because i thini they were rowing wrongly all the time when i was behind them during sunday's training. they managed to correct their stroke fast enough, but rowing the kayakpro and rowing dragonboat is abit different, with reference to the hardness of the water. while they were rowing then, i was doing my weighted chin-ups, 3 big shot putt balls in a bag. could managed to do 2 sets of 8. then i reduced it to 2 big balls and do 2 sets of 10. lastly, without weights.i felt so much lighter after that. haha.
training in the evening began on a bad note for me. this was what happened. i told my juniors to shift all the weights placed outside the basketball court to the gallery as it was going to rain soon. then i went to the gallery first to place the incline pull-up bars in place. i tried to practice the parrallel bars then suddenly, mr singh (fark his name la) just blourted out "stop. you're not supposed to use that way. you're going to spoil the elasticity of the band and the pin too!" i was like huh? i wasn't even touching the band la! then i thought there was misunderstanding and i explained to him that we weren't going to touch the bands. he just cut me off and told me NO NO NO. by this time, i was getting pissed, and i told him Mr lee say use this bars. another PE teacher behind me, Ms Yap, then came in and say NO NO NO, i will tell him cannot use. i still argued that mr lee allowed it and he's a PE teacher too. still they wouldn't listen. me, being so pissed, just walked off, and i went to find mr lee. he, too was puzzled at what i told him that the PE teachers say can't use. in the end, the other PE teachers over-powered his reason, with the most STUPID reason that the band will spoil, the pin will come off and so can't use. i mean, if spoil, get a new one la! not as if it cost 4000 bucks for the band (which looks like a shoelace in fact) or the pin. they can all go to hell.
anyway, we still managed to get training on track. we spilt into 2 groups, 1 doing interval training first, and the other endurance sets (when we whack weights for continuous 60s for 2 sets). i started with the endurance, and it almost had me killed. really. super SIONG! then after weights training, came fartlek. wah. i tell you, the training was really hiong. then, i forgot to take my creatine. which means, i wasn't going to recover fast enough for today's rowing.
today rowing? quite intense i will say. keep doing race sets. really tough. we were already so tired from the training yesterday, and now we had to do race sets. our 1st set already sucked. needless to say the rest. but i would still say the year2 boat was still good. not bad. but its not our best, and confirm confirm, we can hit better timings next time.
i need to study now. i'll find time to blog on friday. watch out for it!
