Had NAPFA retest today... Had to take cos I missed D for 2.4 by like 25 seconds the previous round due to stitch attack... Haha. I was damn stressed the whole day la, cos have to take all the crappy 5 stations first before the stupid 2.4 run... Later waste all my effort in the 5 stations again.
Was damn happy things turned out better than expected... I improved by one grade in every other station (except those which I already got A for already) and that means I got my silver! YES! No extra two months of crap BMT!
Wah but I hurt my heel doing standing broad jump... The second jump I didn't land properly... Landed heavily on my left heel. Still hurts... I think I aggravated it during the 2.4 run as well... Painful la.
The 2.4 run was damn funny. By that time I already had AABBC for my 5 stations and I needed to make at least 12:40 for a D and a silver. I ran quite fast for the first lap and overtook nearly everyone... Then the PE teacher read 1:40 after I ran past him and I was like shit too fast! So I slowed down and did like 2 minutes or 2 minutes 10 seconds for the subsequent laps. After lap 4 I was like shit too slow! By that time Rong En and Liang Ze already overtook me. Then lap 5 I caught up with Rong En, he was walking I think he had stitch trouble... So I patted him on the back like he did to me in lap 4 and said, "Go!" and we both started running. By lap 6 I had the attack of the DOUBLE stitch. Damn crap la... So close yet so far I was thinking... So I started to walk then run then walk then run start-stop... 200 metres from the finish line Rong En suddenly shouted directly behind me "GO!"... Damn loud la. But that got both of us sprinting. In the end I did around 12:20... Not bad la shaved 40 plus seconds off my previous timing. Many thanks to Rong En who helped me tremendously through the last lap!!! Haha. And Liang Ze who gave me the thumbs up as he ran past in the 4th lap. Yay!
Wow but the 2.4 run is seriously a test of mental endurance... The physical part is ok. Unless I get a stitch. But everything was in good shape for the most part. It was the mental strength where I was lacking... The last lap when I sprinted the last 200 metres, every step was like hell and the fire and shooting through my legs... That wasn't what weakened me, it was the double stitch that threatened to do me in... Every breath I took there was pain shooting through my stomach... Damn painful. But it was all worth it in the end... Going through that for the final few seconds of the run is definitely much much better than having to take the NAPFA test again after the June holidays because of another missed D for 2.4.
Now I think I continue training and maybe can push for gold after the June holidays. Haha. Ambitious...
After the retest I went to the MRT station to get my stupid EZ-link card checked out. On Monday when I boarded 156 and tapped the card the thing would not respond la. I tapped damn furiously until Kai said I was lousy. Then he started tapping my card which did not get a response in the end. So I said he was lousy. Haha. The whole time the bus uncle was staring at us la. Damn funny! In the end I had to pay 55 cents in coins... My card is defective cannot work... Got a temporary card today at Bishan MRT now have to go to Jurong East Interchange to get a new Student EZ-link card. Must go and take passport photograph in school uniform some more... Aiyah I'll do it tomorrow on the way home. Oh shit I forgot to tap my card when I got off the bus just now hope they only charge student prices... Otherwise I only have 60 cents left in the temporary card. Crap.
Have to go do Food Biotech tutorial but damn lazy... Maybe I'll just read tonight and chiong the questions before Bio tutorial tomorrow morning. Or maybe I'll get a cup of coffee and stay up doing the tutorial tonight... Haha... Oh well, what the hell. See how la.
