bad week it has been. humiliated thrice over. nah nevermind at least i know i am going to improve.
can't believe we were told to go to the community center to get scolded. took over an hour to reach and when we reached there we realized the competition is on TUESDAY. wtf??! we just joined last thursday and you only give us 3 day's notice?? we've been practicing like. once every few months?
omgosh. felt so angry initially (with the coach). in fact i do not treat him as a coach or anything of this sort. he's just a horrible, fat guy who's angry with our school. prolly the bad pay.
Blah. but i know his words are true so i decided to make the most of my time there. watched the others play and learnt a little more. went home after a while as it was disheartening to see her play so badly. she could have done much better. if only that stupid person scolded her after she played.
so, we went to kovan to eat lunch. then went to a few sports shop to look around for a racket for jing. since i already have a racket i looked at the strings and grips. hmm. still thinking if i should restring my racket (even though it doesn't have to be), coz i want purple strings x=
then tuiton. jing decided to get a $20+ racket. told her not to waste her money. so i'll be lending her the other racket in my house. ms lim was great and really supportive - she offered to buy us each a racket if we pass our eoy exam. she said $70 - $80 + would be okay. felt bad as she was serious so we offered to pay half.
i'm so excited about it. since i would prefer quality over quantity, i will top up and get a $100+ racket instead. she said she would play with us too, and can teach us tennis. if only she was teaching us math in school. no one would need tuition.
mass tomorrow morning. will play after rciy, coz i rested today. going over to sal's later. supposed to collect my books from liting's house then study with sal.
btw - this crazy guy called patrick. do not ever, ever call my hp again. you waste my time. unless you call at a good time, like today, where i can vent my anger on you, i will switch off my hp when your number appears on my handphone screen.
shoo, jocce!
