Extract from tumblr... Again
Saturday, January 1, 2011 @ 11:13 PMSo practically a hobby seems appropriate to start of with the new year. I love hobbies cause it occupies my time and I’m able to equip myself with lots of skills.For me my hobby would have to be towards the sporty side I guess? Let me recall what were my hobbies up till now.
1.Soccer ( DUH! soccer is MAD FUN!! cause got a ball and you get to run here and there)
2.Badminton ( Primary school passion! too bad sec school no cca for this )
3.Bowling ( ah yes! Year 1 favourite past time and learning hook shot… failed)
4.Basketball ( since sec school but didnt manage to continue cause no one to play with)
5.Running ( I<3 running… I SWEAR!)
6.Gym ( A subtitute to the HIGH INTENSITY canoe training)
7.Canoe Polo ( I dunno how to describe this incredible <3 for this sport.. The burning passion that was put away cause of smac :( FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!I love the concept of the game and really miss training with the teammates :( )
8.Canoe Sprint ( Rowing for a few kilometres wasn’t a bad idea after all.. Great respect to this side of the sport. The weather really plays a part in your performance and you need proper stroking techniques in order to move further and faster without using unneccesary muscle group that will tire you down)
9.Sepak Takraw ( Played this as a past time way back when I still hang out with neighbourhood peeps.. Always played it everyweek and even joined a mini intercom in school)
10.Skating ( Yeah I used to skate alot back in secondary school times.. Mostly in ECP or the neighbourhood park… I only stopped when my feet outgrew the skates =.= )
11.Rockclimbing ( I love rockclimbing as well! It’s really an upperbody challenge and I really really like it! It’s just that I’m damn shy to go and try climbing when I don’t know anyone there… Furthermore, they’ll all from SPRC and are much better than me… :/ )
So that’s the hobbies that I can remember in my mind right now.. something seems missing but I’ll re-edit it if I remembered.. So for the year 2011 im gonna try out skateboarding…
YES effing skateboarding… I know it’s abit MAT-ISH but hey trying out a new sport ain’t gonna harm you right? I have yet to have full confidence in cruising on the skate at high speed.. HECK im too afraid that sometimes my leg position are too close. So for this new hobby I’ve got the help of my fellow friends in my neighbourhood area who skates.. alot of them actually :)
So to start of with I wanna learn how to: Manual, kickflip, ollie and finally grind on a railing… after doing all of that then I’m a happy kid and able to mark skateboarding down as a hobby.
For me, hobbies aren’t something that you can just pick up try it one time and GO… HEY! i used to rollerblade back then! To me its about trying out the sport for awhile… learn some skills from it, practice practice practice… only then can you say you learn that hobby..
Examples would be: Soccer( definitely more than 3 years)
Badminton( 3 years)
Skating(1 year)
Canoeing(Close to 2 years)
Ok that’s about it! :)
