aching throughout

Yesterday's PE was a torture session. We started with 2 warm up jogs around the track and then went to the pull up bar at the side of the canteen. Breaking news - If you fail any station you can say goodbye to any games throughout the whole year during PE. 3 weeks is all I got to get myself in the groove for pull ups. So after doing some pull ups we headed to the area outside LT4 to do as many sit ups as we can. I stopped at 48 since I anticipated that there will be more vigorous training soon after.

Indeed to my anticipation, we had to do 3 sets of 20 speed jumps while doing 2 sets of push ups in between each set of speed jump. My legs went jelly at the second set and almost lost balance a few times. After completing those it was time for shuttle run. I couldn't feel my legs at all while running. That all happened in one hour and I was totally drained. Had to rest for more than half an hour in the canteen before being able to walk without feeling any drowsiness.

Lesson of the day: Never play bball on the same day as PE. Vote for A6! lol

Today was the first day of peer tutoring for project inspiring lives. Matthew had debate competition so that made me think thrice whether to actually show up at 9am in school. Those who joined in the project were mostly girls, and not more than a handful of boys (2/3). I coached Tyzz En, a primary 4 student from Yang Zheng Primary. Quite a nice kid. He needed help in math and English. The maths questions were a breeze but it didn't apply for the English part though. Couldn't manage to clearly explain how to convert a singular noun to a plural noun. (e.g house---> houses, mouse---> mice (why not mouses?))

Picked up my new spec today. Can't believe its already ready. I was just choosing the frames yesterday and today I'm already wearing it. Talk about advancement in technology. =]
