So to the holiday life we go. Right after the electrical exam, I went to Korean BBQ with Karthik, Ben, Alvin and Dixon. It was going great until the rice ran out and they didnt refill it like half an hour later which ruined our appetite. The portion of meat and rice must be balanced in order to keep eating. Oh and Ben's toilet trip was pretty lol! After the meal, went to play pool with Alvin and Dixon and that basically concluded my day. No wait I also watched a Japanese movie called Kaiji, more about that later on.
The very next day, I remembered the promise to myself that I would go gym on the day after my exam. So I dragged Shawn with me to go work out and boy was I weak lol. A year of no gym had it's toll, Im like basically back to where I started. Hopefully with all the gaps in next semester will allow me to go gym and start building up again. Played 10mins of bball before injuring my thumb AGAIN and got kicked off the court by badminton players.
The 3rd day after waking up with intense aching muscles, I had to get myself to uni by 12 to play bball with the crew, if I dont show then that means 3 other ppl wont show lol therefore my attendance was required. To most of our amazement Jerrell finally joined the gym! We had some pretty good games however I was scared to use my right hand due to painful thumb so I couldnt go hard and most of my shots were off... Afterwards, we went to Golden Bowl for a feed as usual. I thought I'd try something new however it was the worst decision ever made. The dish I ordered was really sour and somewhat spicy, luckily I was hungry therefore I could finish half of it. Then went to play pool again with Jerrell and Shawn hehe.
4th day, today. The day started in a good way since I have broadband again! I could open my email within 10 secs instead of 3mins! Got to uni by 12 again to attend the job seminar. There were 2 guests speakers and both gave quite a lot of information so I guess my trip was worthwhile. After the 2 and a half hour seminar, we couldnt decide where to go and have lunch. Then funny enough they agreed on Korean BBQ, Dennis and Juan. Lol 2 korean bbq in 4 days. Luckily this time the rice did not run out and I ate pretty much my money's worth. Had to kill time before the main event so went around the city, read magazines, look at laptops, play at arcade. Then finally it was time.
We arrived at the shooting range 20mins early however there were already 6-8 people waiting. Then within the short time range, it grew to about 25 or more. We shared a booth between us 5 ppl, each shot 5 rounds which is 1 mag on the .22 rifle. Juan was a pro therefore he could fire a semi auto pistol. Now I had never seen or heard or fired a gun in my whole life. So this was quite a new experience for me. We were all required to wear earmuffs. I thought to myself how loud could this sht be??? So I took them off after a while but then put them straight back on 3 secs later LOL. The BANG sound actually hurts your ear a bit.
My first try I was just a complete newb, luckily Juan helped me load the rifle but I did not know how to aim with the rifle, where I should be looking etc. On my second go, one of the supervisors taught me the proper technique and all soon enough I got the hang of it. Due to time running out and we just bought new 50 rounds, we quickly fired 10 rounds each and I must say I had some major improvement.I was reloading fast and like 3 of mine were really close to the centre I was aiming for. This was definately a new and fresh experience for me and Im looking forward to improve on this skill in the future :D
