First Time

I played badminton last night!!!

Pramis, nag-enjoy ako ^_^

Maybe it's because of my coach hehehe. Super bait ni seatmate Randy! Siya rin kasi ang nangungulit sakin ng ilang araw para mapaglaro ako ng badminton, eh. Pinagamit pa nya sakin yung raketa nya. Andami nyang naituro sakin yesterday, pero minsan, matigas lang talaga ulo ko eh hehehe. Talagang out of habit talaga, di ko ma-control yung sarili ko. :P

And lahat sila na-excite sakin. Walang tigil na "Let's go Shelley" ang narinig ko from Lory and Toto ha. Silang dalawa kasi, buong araw na nila ako *pinapa-kaba* sa aking initiation into the badminton world. At talagang sumama pa si Toto samin, eh originally di naman kasi sya daw makakasama. [Sabi ko sa kanya, "Wag ka ng sumama para walang mang-gago sakin!" :P] Gusto talaga niyang makita ang big event na ito hahaha. :D

We played at their usual badminton courts, at the Libis Badminton Center. Sadly, they just informed us last night that they'll be closing down on Monday, January 31. Haaay... buti naman at nakasama ako sa last laro nila sa LBC. At talagang nakalaro pa'ko sa LBC diba? Nakapunta nako don before, during the badminton games of the sportsfest last December. Take note, taga-nood lang ako noon. Ngayon, naglaro nako, o diba?

Some points I need to improve: I don't flick my wrist. I just move my arm forward to hit the shuttlecock. I also need footwork. Sometimes when the shuttlecocks going back and forth, napapatanga na lang ako and nanonood na lang ako hahaha :D Also, my service needs to be improved also. Di pa ako ganon ka-confident sa service ko eh. Also, I need to understand the rules more!!!!

Hmmm... parang gusto kong maglaro uli ah! Para ma-improve na yang kelangang ma-improve. Next month, pa-drop-drop na lang ako and pa-smash-smash nyan hehehe :D

Toodles!
