    Ahh… ahhray… 

    At last, I was able to play badminton last night. And it was great. Hay sobra ko namiss. It was fun. And soon I hope I will have the guts to play again at Flick and face the "pang-olympics" players there.

    Actually, I was laughing at myself while playing last night. At my first hit, it’s as if Celine Dione was singing at the background, "and it’s all coming back to me now…." hehe. I tried to play as how I played before. I can remember the moves, and I think the reflex was still there — well, I hope :) . I ran to the net for the drop shots, I ran to the back for the long shots… I ran all over the court, whew, but I was never as fast as I was before. Di ko inaabot ang shuttle! haha. Hay, the added pounds were slowing me down. Kasi naman masyado silang nawelcome, ang dami tuloy added pounds. hehe.

    After several games, I was really out of breath. And that is something I have not experienced for quite a long time. This time last year, with my gym, dancing and badminton, I was at the peak of my stamina and endurance.  And now, after 6 months of inactivity, I am soooo out of shape. Hay, I need to get back on my feet. Kaso nakakatamad.. joke joke. hehe.

    My right arm is in pain. And I feel stiffness at the right side of my neck. Ahhh… Masyado ko ata nakarir ang pagpalo. hehe. But I can endure all this, pumayat lang, haha joke. I know I just have to play again (tomorrow? hehe) to lessen this pain and be able to build that stamina back. I just have to, because I don’t like this feeling. I have to be able to fly again and soar… and to be able to run and hit the shuttle. :)

 

P.S.

Thanks to my partners, Ge and Rhodney, for my dinner last night. Kelan uli kau magpupustahan? :)

good job last night. for someone who has been out of the court for quite some time, i think you did good. you still strive to run for the shuttle. you quickly regained you’re forte (ie, drive shot). and most especially, I felt your interest to “relearn” what skills you had before. as for the bet, di ka na mananalo next time. hehehe.

It is this kind of “cool down” I missed the most. Kainan and kantyawan after the game…hay…

I’ll just frequent your blog (as well as zarine’s and and ven’s) so I can still keep my passion for badminton burning. Keep on, guys!

coach VEN, thanks for the encouragement. a comment like this from the guru surely made my heart leap.:) i hope to regain the skill and relearn the moves. pati re-WIN the bet. haha.

KA, the bet was not a ‘cool down’ but rather a ‘warm up’ - unahan sila sa pagpasok ng 10am so that we can play at 6pm. but to my advantage, pareho silang late. :) the best ang porkchop sa sinangag haus.

RefLectioNs

Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all he has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Phil 4:6-7

 

All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It straightens us out and teaches us to do what is right. It is God's way of preparing us in every way, fully equipped for every good thing God wants us to do. 2Tim 3:16-17
