Sick Boyfriend

My dear boyfriend had been sick for for the past few days... He felt the symptoms since Tuesday, after he picked me up from school. He told me that it could be due to the food that he ate during break fast. At first he was having sore throat, then turned to cough, then he got fever. When I broke fast at his house on Wed, his condition got worst. Friday was supposed to be his Shift 1, he still had yet to recover. He went to the polyclinic to see a doctor and he was given 3 days MC. All in all, he was sick for 5 days. While he was sick, he stayed at home to recuperate. I haven't met him but when he called me just now, he told me that he is feeling better. He still has the coughs though. I hope u will get fully well soon, Dearest!

Air Pistol Shooting

Recently, I got myself involved in air pistol shooting...

How I got myself into this?
Home Team Western Sector requires ladies to fill up the ladies categories in the Home Team Inter Sector Air Shooting Competition. So, Kak Kamisah called me and asked me whether I'm interested to join. Knowing Kak Kamisah, she always takes part in fun activities and so, I'm all up for it. She asked Ira to join also. Together with Ira, we went for the one day training shoot at Bukit Batok Home Team NS. It turns out to be fun. Even after shooting the 50 palettes, it felt that it wasn't enough for us.

After one day of training shoot, the competition day arrives, which was yesterday, 25 August 2009. It was a half-day event held at Bukit Batok Home Team NS. Home Team Southern Sector took all of the first place medals, except for Mens Open Speed Shooting. They really put in so much effort for the competition. I heard they conducted plenty of training. I guess they had to considering they are the event organizer.

Home Team Western Sector did not so bad after all. Despite most of us doing this for the very first time, we got at least third placing. The shocker was when I at least got to bring back home a bronze medal for the Womens Open Speed Shooting. It was a really a nice surprise for all of us in the category. We didn't expect to win anything.

Air pistol shooting is all about a game of patience, mind endurance and accuracy. When you're able to put in the palettes at your intended target, the sense of achievement is there. So, do give it a try... For me, try everything at least once.
