YEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Wow finally had time.
Alright last week was totally off, we had our annual basketball camp!
Starting from Monday. We were supposed to be meeting at 7am, but I arrived at 2pm.
Initially because I wanted to go to the polyclinic to have a X ray. But due to several misunderstandings I didnt went in the end.
The amazing thing is, when I stretched my back, I feel normal. Then when I carried my camping stuff to the school the back pain came again.
Wtf. Seriously at that point of time I really thought that my back injury had a relapse. Like during sec 2/3.
But luckily I did those stretching, one of them is taught by the camp excel guy, coincidentally the exercise is also introduced by my physio guy.
*drum roll* The Cobra!
Okay they say that this is also taught in yoga. Me doing yoga. Sounds gay.
Seriously I always thought yoga is gay. But now I have no choice but to use a gay way to relieve my pain. How gay.
Okay I actually meant gay as happy. Never mind if you got the wrong one ;)
So I stretched a bit and waited for TPJC to come :O
We won. Its a good feeling to have people cheering you on by the sides. I think I scored quite a lot, maybe eighteen points hehehe.
In the end we won 82-68. Our first home game, we won and everyone was happy. Then we lived happily ever after.
No way. My back pain was slightly better, but I got a bruise on my thigh. While doing a layup someone knocked me in the thigh using his knee. Ouch.
At that moment there's a freaking sharp pain that I had to hobble to the bench.
At night I couldn't sleep well and its hard to move around. I had to limp from one place to another :(
2nd day. The next day the bruise was better. I thought the heat rub helped a lot. But I was having trouble running and shooting the ball, and there's a match against CJC in the morning.
Yea I played, and scored 8 points with 4/5 shooting :D In the end we won 68-63.
After that I was soooo tired that I slept through the refereeing course :X
And after that we had training in the evening, which I sat out halfway because the pain was unbearable.
At night we watched zombie land, and had an early night at around 12.
3rd day, and after the morning run (which I sat out also), we had breakfast. Then we went to the hall for a course.
Conducted by yours truly. The first aid course. Seriously I was quite nervous but luckily I prepared and was quite humorous I think, even the teachers LOLed :O
Luckily no one fell asleep. But the thing is the items in the first aid box is so little, and I took only 10 minutes to go through everything. After teaching them how to cure sprains and common basketball injuries I really had nothing to go through.
So I had an impromptu Q&A session. They asked me questions at first, and after that I asked them back. Whoever gets one question correct gets one chicken wing at the BBQ.
Very rushed Q&A. Very random prize. Before the whole session the excos suggested buying sweets to reward them.
But its okay. At least at the end their spirits are high and that is the most important thing :D
So there was the 3v3 tournament, and after that we lunched and prepared the BBQ.
All the seniors are coming back for the BBQ cum testimonial match. In the end we lost 102-66 I think.
Quite a terrible margin. But they were really pro. Like damn. I might be quite big sized against other players, but I went in like a mouse. Really.
I turned and pivoted and can't find an opening. And they were very physical too.
I had my worst match of the camp, shooting 2/10, scoring 5 points. Okay still it looks normal if you compared to our top scorer who only had 12 points. And I had 7 rebounds also.
But its still disappointing to have a 20% shooting.
In the end everyone sat down to eat their food, we didn't eat much, because of the large number of seniors that were present. In the end we joked that we paid 20 bucks (which is the camp fee) to feed the seniors.
Well I managed to get 3 hotdogs, a plate of bee hoon, and a couple of crabsticks. Still not bad I should say.
Some of them went to sleep, I played ball till around 3am plus. By that time my sole is damn pain and I have to limp to the showers. I almost did the unthinkable.
Sleeping in the basketball court.
Then we went to sleep.
The next day we cleaned up and went to have lunch. Then at night we had steamboat at chongpang.
It was not bad, really. 20 bucks and I ate quite a lot. Bruce ordered pig brain and while eating, he realised that the insides are uncooked. Wohoo.
Kena pwned big time man.
Alright, thats all for Terence and his adventures!
P.S I haven't done any work yet!
