tennis lessons

had my first tennis lesson at uni tennis court today with nicole. & i must say i am so so so unhealthy! i'm aching now & its oni after a 1 hr lesson! & when the coach was giving us balls to hit i couldn't catch so many of them.. sigh.. it just goes to show my stamina is poor, my breathing is weak, my muscles are under-used! hopefully next wk will be better!

hmm coach. he's called Marcus King *hmm yet another Marcus... =p* looks wise hehe he's pretty alright, kinda average caucasian male look. but he's nice la.. v encouraging, esp when i keep missing the ball & using the wrong technique..

at first it seemed like a private lesson for me & nicole cuz we were the only 2 students there! the other 2 pple were SO late, they came abt 6.10pm & the lesson was supposed to end at 6.30pm. oh well.. they're frm China.. not that i wanna sound so prejudiced but still, shouldn't u been on time for classes, esp when its the first lesson? after u ARE paying for it & the less time u come the less u benefit rite? hmm.. anywae their loss, me & nicole's gain. =p

so we did forehands, backhands against the coach.. as in he served us balls while we tried to hit them back to him. i am so LOUSY... sigh.. nicole is so much better den me even thou she's never played before.. everytime i missed the ball i felt so super paiseh man.. & my backhand is so much weaker den my fore. i somehow can't grasp the stroke well.. crap how come my ball sense so poor! =/ but we practiced serving too & that went pretty well at least..

ah but overall it was FUN.. & that's the most impt! hehe.. looking forward to the next one...
