Went for shooting camp today! Decided to pon that BW goldmember thing in sch coz it's kinda lame and matthew told me they didnt do much in the end anyway :P
Met leonard at yishun MRT and went for breakfast together at macs! Talking kok all the way... I think i'm like the dumbest a$$ in the whole world. The last time at macs i accidentally drank from eme's coke, this time i unknowingly reached for leonards' and drunk his instead >_< Had to get him another straw. I gotta learn to suppress this dumb habit of not looking at things in front of me.
Anyway after that we headed back to go pick up mie and joyce. Then couldnt find ian wern and solomon. I called solomon, and then he said: "I overslept. Sorry. I'm at Harborfront MRT now." LOL so for punishment leonard made IW wait 40 mins for him. He sent leonard an sms that read: "WTF i need to wait 40 mins? Solomon is taking 10 years to arrive". Ack sorry ian wern! X ] Turns out we were early in the end, since safra only opens at 9.30am. But haha it was all good since we were the first to queue and book all the denker lanes and enough lanes for everyone, or so we thought. Trained until coach zhang arrived, and gave us some talk on correct posture and steps when using pistol. Actually quite educational lol compared to some of the talks she gave us back at RI; really helped me identify my problem areas (GRIP!!!).
Then wil came and some of the ppl went out for lunch at BK while the remainder of us bought stuff from the coffeeshop opposite and sat in the lobby and ate and talked. Didnt really have much to say coz i was just so tired (had to reload my cylinder twice = 250 shots rawr) but hmm it's fun listening to what other people have to say. And halfway thru mie ran out and told us something was wrong with eme's p700 >_< Totally taken aback such a priceless treasure spoil liao going to cost us a bomb. Turns out that something was wrong with the dry fire mechanism and the red plasticky thing that was holding it in place snapped -.-U. In the end Coach Lijie took it away for a while, worked his magic on it and it came back good as new! No worries eme! ^^.v.
And finally we ended the day off by attending some 2 hour long presentation by coach zhang about her adventures to finland to attend some coaching course and demonstrate how her methods helped shooters dramatically improve their scores. Lots of graphs and long winded explanations. The demonstrations were like the same she'd shown us in the morning, but then she just launched into this 1h 30 min slide show with photos of her and her proteges receiving prizes. It was so dark; must've dozed off a few times. X ] Haha what to do she's the coach, and to be honest, it's only normal for her to feel proud of her accomplishments (((:
Ahh some photos!
