Hey people! I've promise you an update on my first wakeboarding experience right?
IT WAS SUPER SUPER FUN!!!
Not boasting here but I never ever thought I had the natural talent to wakeboard! haha Wah serious man today's session was a morale booster. At first was quite conscious, since Huda (a JC friend of mine) and I were the only ones who were all covered up. Yeah not the typical babe and hunks with bikini's and boardshorts but hey! Neva judge us by our looks seh! Kita minah ferring semangat kental punye!
In my boat were Huda, Adeline, Proscillia, Clara, myself and our instructor, Azli. Azli was very patient and encouraging and that really helped us who are all first timers (except for Clara who's in wakeboarding in NIE).
However our bot encoutered a little misadventure when a huge canvas got stuck in the propeller. So poor Azli got to make many long dives in his brave attempt to cut away the piece. He ended having bloodshot eyes (having to see in salt water) and a big deep deep gash on his hand.... and of course he was our hero for the day! Once we got back into motion, my anxiety returned caused till then I still haven't had my turn. I was the last one to go and seeing the others surely made me more nervous.
But Alhamdulillah I managed to make my debut stand on the first try and with that I gained confidence and skill to sustain longer on the board subsequently. I definitely happy! I can wakeboard. On my second set, I managed to stand for 2min 4o secs!!! Wow can I say I'm impressed with myself?! Got encouragements to join the wakeboarding team but hhmmm think I'll just go for leisure instead.
Well Azah's happy and now her butt is hurting. Must be from that squatting position.
Wish I could tell that someone about my adventure........ but nevermind.
Go check out my fotopage ok! http://nurlion.fotopages.com
Anyway the next few days will be action packed.
Kak Nini's getting married. That's another cousin off the solo list. Feeling kinda sad but hey congrats Kak Nini! Rewang the whole weekend. And next week I'll be off to Ubin for OBS. I'm having mixed feelings about going for OBS. Definitely excited to test my limits but there are other reasons for me to be feeling otherwise. And I'm afraid I'll be tired by Sunday. Not even packed and the weather doesn't seem to promise much.
Well think I better go and pack now.
Azah's butt is hurting.
