counting down...again.
sunday morning was back in ngee ann on thursday. so, after a long layoff (2 years to be exact), i picked up my sticks and started playing floorball again. boy was i in for a shock. my stamina isn't anywhere as near as i thought it was. considering i could still do 2.4km in 10:45, i thought i was in good shape to have a proper game.
after two shifts of 3 minutes each, i was feeling the strain and i decided it was time to take it slow. so instead of my usual hard running and dribbling as a winger/forward, i became more of a playmaker, holding the ball and distributing it around the court for hubert, kenneth and yuxun to try to score.
so yes. i'm horribly out of shape. i guess i've got a long road ahead of me in terms of building up my stamina again.
in other news. bought myself a new laptop at the IT show. funnily enough, i was fixed on getting myself a HP before shuren showed me the Asus brochure. suddenly, i was running around with my dad hunting for the Asus laptop.
finally got it at $2670, not very cheap because it's $170 above budget but.. i think it was a good buy. the specifications were much better than the HP one and well, i guess the freebies were a clincher as well. hah!
and oh! went for the ANU pre-departure brief at orchard hotel just now. i was a bit surprised that there are about 20+ singaporeans headed for ANU. i was expecting somewhere around 15 or less so i guess 20+ isn't all that little for a pretty small school eh?
i'm still piffed that my accommodation in canberra isn't settled yet. the school's yet to reply and i've got less than a month to go before i'm there. doesn't help that i'm flying off on the 1st for my little backpacking/roadtrip around sydney and melbourne. oh well, nothing much i can do now other than writing in to the school again. darn it.
digression: spain just scored 2 minutes into injury time courtesy of david villa. 2-1 win against sweden.
i realised my blog entries aren't making sense anymore. or rather, they are just not very organised. i have a tendency to type out whatever that comes to my mind instead of organising my thoughts and then structuring them like some sort of essay. i wonder why.
