Then.. sing sing.. till we collaspe.

16 June 2006
It was a crazy day! Went to Grassroot club at 10 30 this morning to practice bowling, so that we will not get rusty. Then after playing so many games.. i played 10.. played till 2 plus, then went to Northpoint there the Long John to have lunch. Then pris and pei rong wanted to go yishun safra to take a look at bowling balls.. so i went. Then pris and I.. our hands itching.. so we went to try out at safra bowling alley.
Wl.. the lane is so damn good la.. and the system is up to date. The lane looks so sleek and classy.. well maintained.. and i think it is not wooden lane la.. unlike grassroot.. the lane is so old and its wooden lane. The only wooden lane bowling alley left in singapore.
The lanes at safra is so smooth.. like so hard to hook.. but its very nice :D
Average at 130 today.. lousy.. still a long way from my ultimate goal of 180..lol.. we played like crazy today la.. super siao.. bowl at everywhere. next week still planning to go safra or grassroot to bowl..hehe.. dun need study liao.
10 June 2006
went to hougang superbowl today.. all by myself played 10 games.. alone. Crazy huh? Actually, i enjoy it leh. I perefer playing alone with noone to disturb or distract. Like that can concentrate more on the game. I am still testing out the new ball. The thumb hole is giving me lots of problem.. there are afew time where i cannot release properly cos the thumb is stuck in the hole. Now my fingers are aching. My thumb, the middle and ring fingers. The thumb shdnt be aching la.. must be that stupid thumb hole.. gotta enlarge it.
My scores today aint that great.. but i gotta say, its better than yesterday's 70 pts when i first use the new ball. I got a nice 161 today.. hehe.. thats my last game.. not too bad. 4 strike, 3 spares. Gotta work on my spares.. cos it sucks.
i m probably going back to superbowl on monday morning.. practice makes perfect. Finally, i can hook the ball. Now i realise that its the type of grip that is impt for hooking. Conventional grips.. those found in house balls, are hard for hooking. Cos, u have to put ur middle and ring finger all the way in till the second segment of ur finger.. this causes difficulty in releasing ur thumb first.
In fingertip grips, thumbs are easily released.. leaving the 2 other fingers in the ball and this can help to impart rotations to the ball.
now my thumb is swollen.. and its like so inflexible now. How to play piano?..lol..

Hurray! got my bowling ball liao..hehe.. went to buy it today.. cost only 168 dollars. because it is just a polyester ball.. Its green and a little blue. So nice :D:D:D
But the thumb hole like a little too small for me.. gotta ask that guy to drill bigger the next time i go back to grassroot. My right thumb so big leh.. like swollen. Maybe it is swollen.. hm.. all because of bowling la.. but nvm.. i love bowling..haha.
wa piang.. they are going to choose the competition team.. next term!! only 5 out of the 8 guys can get in. Ok.. lets analyse.. 2 out of the 8 always din come.. so i doubt they will be able to make it. So, left with 6. Fighting for 5 spaces.
Out of the 5.. there is 1 reserve and 4 non reserves. so actually, only 4 will be bowling in the comp. The reserve just sit there stone.. and pray?? Pray for one to be injure then he can subsitute that guy..lol..
This is stiff competition. The treasurer, SH is good at bowling.. not doubt he will be in.. hm.. wad abt the President.. hhm.. not too good according to pris and JR. I think JR can make it. So thats left with 3 places. JL..hm.. very committed to bowling.. but his style abit wierd.. his rythm not correct.. did not slide.. and no follow through. Scores are not that impressive either.. but is really committed.
Then..ZW.. hm.. like a bit off recently leh.. and dun see that he got much passion for bowling.
well.. as for me.. haha... that is for others to decide how good i m. I suck today la.. 105 average.. like shit. off form. After buying the ball.. i was testing it out.. so not use to it la.. my score fall to a super low of 70. still cant harness the power of the ball..haiz..
Hm.. the girls are going to have 2 teams.. i feel pris have chance to get in.. if she is more consistent.. and more motivated even if the scores are not as good.
08 June 2006
Wow, i m so excited. Tml have bowling training..lol.. After the training the few of us plan to go take a look at bowling balls. Hm.. pris finally broke her 100 point target! haha.. i think she need to thank me leh =P. She always stands so towards the left of the lane la.. like 20-25th board, and she some more is a right hander and always throw such that he ball roll over the 10th board.. then will hook, but because it is a house ball, and she din hook properly, the ball cannot hook into board 17th at the 1-3 pocket.. so cannot strike la.
So, i suggested a change. To stand left leg at the 15th board and aim for arrow 2.. with this she broke her record. Hm.. maybe is not the change i made that help her.. maybe she that day just so lucky..lol..
i had a few good shots at the last training. My first 4 frames was.. X 5/ X X.. wa piang eh.. so nice sia.. then the coach went to put one shoe on the lane la.. on arrow 3.. asking us to bowl on arrow 2.. the shoe so distracting la..lol..
kena scolded by him so many times la.. always forget to follow through..haiz..
Today, school starts at 7 45 and end at 5 15..lol.. hell ah! 8 hours plus of lessons and only give us one 1 hr break. This is worst than normal school day. normal school day have a recess and lunch.. this ah.. no recess.. and we all so hungry in the audi la.. so freaking cold and so freaking hungry.
Then we rush to NYP mac to get lunch and rush back.. ate during physic tutorial..lol..
During lunch time.. went to play bball.. then after than is chem.. wa lao.. 3+ hours of chem.. can die leh..
04 June 2006
I have nothing better to do.. so just went around surfing the web for some A Divison Bowling results. In the recent National School 10 pin bowling comp @ yishun SAFRA.. a guy from SAJC got the best average score of 203.1 pts!!
I was like 'wow!' 203.1 is like crazy?!
AJ bowling is aming to participate in next's years competition. And our mission is not to get the last place. Lol.. ok.. thats dumb i dare to bet if we send any of the guys there.. we will not get last.. i bet!
Cos, after looking at the last place's (position 149) score.. i feel like laughing my head off. An average of 92.2?!
Ok, i m not that great.. or shd i say i m not great at all. But isnt 92.2 a little too poor? Not that i look down on that person, but i just feel its really not up to the standard. Maybe he have a headache that day.. or he is too nervous.
Hey.. i always tot that all cpmpetitors average more than 180.. looks like i m kinda wrong. Now.. i feel better about my own average..lol.. but it still suck. With my 120+ i probably can get a 135 place out of 149. Not bad for a beginner la.. hor?
Saw Domi's score.. he average at around 140. Not too bad, better than me.. man.. he is going to own me once again when we go out for bowling.. some time during the holz.
Still have to go back to school tml for Econs from 12 45 to 3 45.. sian leh.. Econs H1 student always so rush one.. too little time.. too many stuff to learn.
Talk about learning.. i still all the way slacking at home. Die ah!!
And ya.. JH can help me change the blog skin or not ah? Its getting old and dusty and help me link the ppl.. tks :D:D:D

Guitar concert
I found it boring. Feel that the ppl there were not well prepared, always play the wrong key. Luckily the ticket is only at 5 dollars, or else i will cry. The best part of the concert is the shouting part. we all will shout things like "Dania, Hock Kiat loves you" and "Jelphine, Raeger loves you!" of course, its fake la.. just purely to entertain ourselves.
AJC Band Concert
This concert is much more better. Its at victoria concert theater, but only got 3 ppl from 08 went. Thats, me, hock kiat and jia hui..lol.. 3 guys dating each other.. very gay. Anyway, i went there just to watch our chem tutor play the piano.. but the volume so soft.. hardly can hear wad he play. The loud music coming from the band itself drowned out the piano.
Bowling
Still as fun as ever.. i performed at an average of 120+ today.. ok.. lousy. The last game was my best.. 165 pinfalls.. hehe.. not bad. If i can mantain 165.. i would have been the best in the bowling team.. for now. The teacher incharge says that they are going to choose the competition team soon. Hope that i get in.. or else in recreational team so boring one. I need more practice.. and i need my own ball.
Serious Work
I bet all my classmates will be studying like crazy for the mid year, trying to get a H3 paper.. blah blah.. i m so ashame to say that i haven start studying yet. Ya, no motivation and the comp is just too tempting. i will die if i din do well this time.. so its time to start studying.. maybe i will start tml? lol..
