Had a long day today at KNC. Coached umpires the whole day. The weather was very kind to us. Shaddy most of the time :) I was thinking about the coaching today. How can I be a better umpire coach? From the way I talk? With the info I deliver and how I deliver it? Or are there some other ways and areas?
Yesterday I was coaching Hougang Sec. First time we got to use the Indoor Sports Hall because of the rain and hall was filled with seating after 'Os'. It was great! The rubber cushioned flooring. Wish I could play basketball or volleyball there someday. Didn't do much with the girlsactually. Only did some quick hands and feet. Then team drill with vision. And into positional plays in the circle after that. Was rushing a little introducing new plays to the girls but I hope they understood what was delivered to them. The session was pretty relax. Maybe a bit too relax. I shall make it a bit more intensive during the camp.
Had my last NCAP lesson on Thursday. Yay! And in the morning, my Coral girls was in a carnival. They surprised me with their performance in the carnival. First time in history they manage to win all their games and opponents score was zero. Means my coaching for pass few months was working. Really happy for it :) Hope the girls have more confident in their future games.
Conducted an umpire course earlier this week with Chris. Didn't have very good feedbacks from the participants. I guess it's because most of them are from secondary school. I guess we have to insert more interesting elements in it. Was thinking maybe I should do some slides with pictures and clips for the next course I run.
I was thinking of buying a video camera. It should be helpful to my coaching and umpiring. Shall I get one?

Sorry guys. Didn't update for a while.
I took up NCAP level 3 Theory lately. Ending next week with 2 more lessons to go. But with tons of assignments to do. Every lesson we have to do an assignment to show that we know what we've learned. 11 assignments in total. Alot hor... But I've not compeleted a single one yet! Gotta start working on it. If not, sure can't complete before dateline.
Besides NCAP, I'm occupied with the usual stuffs. Coaching, umpiring, umpire course and umpire coaching. I think I'm starting to get bored of all the Netballs. Looking at my calendar there's nothing much to look forward to. Just more of coaching, umpiring, umpire course and umpire coaching. Ahhrrr...... And 'Nations Cup'. I still haven't really started training for it. Only 1 month left. OH NO!!! And this is my last chance this year to get badged for A. And I so want to do the final! Didn't get it during NSL and only as a reserve at Asian Champ. I gotta get to the final!

Hi reader. Miss me?
Just added ice in the h-two-o I got from umpiring yesterday. Unchilled h-two-o taste yucky...
About umpiring last night. It was literally final of the Polite games. Whoever wins it should be the champ. Cause all the rest of the teams are not so strong. Ok. About umpiring. I was struggling in the last quarter. Can't really sprints at all. Poor stamina. Think I should cut down drinking every night. And last week, I wanted to do more exercise but sprained my ankle on Tuesday night. Lucky I recovered fast. Able to run on Thursday and Friday already can jump. Of course still a bit weak and pain lah. I just love umpiring challenging game. There are some things I need to work on, which I'll improve for the coming few games. Hope I get into Nations cup umpire. And hope I'm ready for it by then.
It's past 1am now and I don't feel like sleeping at all. Need to wake up before 6am for coaching some more. Think it's because I slept till 3pm today. So good life hor. Haha! Got no coaching. Hope I get busier soon. Had just readied my stuff for tomorrow cause I know tomorrow morning sure kelang-kabut.
Tonight I had my second lesson for the NCAP level 3 I'm taking. It's rvery Tuesday and Thursday night. And I met SzeLing during the break today. A pleasant suprise. She is taking level 1. Haha! Got people acompany me home next time. The lessons was great. Lots of usefull information about coaching.
Should I write more? neh... maybe next time. Things on my mind now are too personal to blog about.

Happy Children's Day!!!
Very unproductive lately. Went to have haircut today. Yesterday, coaching didn't do anything. Let the girls do whatever they wanted. Played basketball at NYP and then friendly game. Monday, morning Kidznet the kids came with only 15 minutes left. Did shooting and that's it. Went office to do something after that. Then coaching again. It was pretty good. Watched 'The Ugly Truth' before umpire coaching at night at KNC. Slept all day on Sunday. And watched F1 on tv. Saturday had volleyball at Sentosa. Got sunburnt.

Haven't been blogging for a while.
I've just got older few days ago. Didn't celebrate. Not really... My sis did treat me to a nice dinner few days before my birthday. But no cake, can't consider a celebration hor? Actually don't really feels like celebrating anyway. But, a surprise would be good. Who won't love one? I believe everyone love birthday surprises.
On that day, I received many wishes and was so happy till I have someone asking me about my wish. Then I realised I didn't think of it at all. Wish... What should I wish for? Will it come true?
I just wish to be content with simple life. Also wish to be a nicer person to others and all my friends. I know it won't be easy. Staying in Singapore had turn me much colder to people. A smile, a greeting, a sincere conversation had become so hard. I want to change to be better.
