Go-kart Day

Woke up around 7.30 this morning and we left the house at about 8 am.
Went to Glenmarie for breakfast.

The junior category started first, with the practice session. I only managed 11th fastest out of 16 people. My car was damn slow. But the car I would change to later on would still have the same problem.

After the adults had their turn, it was our turn now for qualifying.
I qualified 10th. My bro 8th, and my cousins 5th and 16th...=)

After that it was the adults again then there was a 10 minute break. Anyone who wanted to sit the 2 seater car, did so during this time.

Then our race started.

We did a rolling start. After the first corner, I could not see Seb who was right in front of me...dunno why. =(

I was racing with the 11th placed guy for sometime, until I lost out to him on the straight.

Then many people spun, *yes*, and I was at about 6th or 7th, until some small kid overtook me on the straight.

* I never get cars that are fast on the straights.

The last few laps, I felt like vomiting...haiz. Had to slow down to take a breath.

At the last corner, some girl overtook me...I thought it was my cousin, so I let her through...=(
*sad*.

In the end, I finish 8th, my bro 4th and my cousins finished 9th and 16th.

3 more days till the big race!!

Go-Kart!!!

Saujana GCC's Go-Kart competition is this Sunday...=)

I can't wait to drive on the circuit again.

Hopefully can get a trophy. XD
That will make me very happy.

But I'll just be pleased to get to drive a go-kart again.

Playing badminton is a no no...

...while you're still sick that is. =)

Still had slight cold when I went for training.

Couldn't complete the physical training.

Not many came yesterday.

We played singles, winner stay.

My brother against one guy. Seb won.

My brother against another guy. Seb surprisingly won.
(Seb wasn't the favourite to win)

Then me against Seb.

We were tied all the way till 12-12, then I could feel the blood in my face. I was heating up. After every rally, I would take my time because of the phlegm in my throat. Take a deep breath, and play.

Couldn't concentrate to smash, even though it was perfect. The positioning, the height, the speed. Perfect. I chose to lob every single time. And surprisingly, it went to the back of the court, which Seb couldn't reach...=).

But still, I lost 21-15.

Never play when you're sick.


*Anyone wanna play badminton anytime soon? I'm too lazy to organise. Anyone care to start?
