Blah.

Training hasn't been very good, I've been lacking motivation, but rather of studying as is my intended purpose of training less, I've been using computer at an overbearing rate of time, much exceeding my usual days when I go out to train. My main reason to not go to gym that often anymore is so I could get more rest and study for the hurdles that's to come. But no. Even flips and movements are getting abit off form, well I mean my sideflips are totally slanted now and my backflips are sloppy. Handstands are getting frustratingly difficult to handle now, so much for playing the computer and not drilling them as much as I did in the past. I don't know why I am spending countless hours, directionless on the computer. Well I understand I have the get my daily dosage of Facebook and Youtube, but once things are done I'm still randomly moving my cursor aimlessly, trying to fill my remaining time of the day on websites that mean nothing to me.

Anyway the Zouk Performance was a blast, which had me getting over the fear of flips on concrete and forget about how sloppy my tricks were and just do it. Granted, it is a small crowd, but my pressure during the performance was nearly zero. Things went so well in the actual performance despite cock-ups in the rehearsals. Best thing was how good we all worked together and getting paid for doing what we like. First time goes a long way.

Money is still a problem for me now, unwilling to spend money, still needs alot of saving up to do, with certain camera problems I'm facing now. Maybe I was overboard. Next week is Sept Holidays and I shall make use of the no-school time to gym and travel abit, BUT still study to prepare for the Big O's. Prelims results will only be released after the holidays, hopefully by then I'm fully charged to the main exams of secondary school life.

Also I found the fun from blogging, and really although it ticks hours away from the clock, it's a way to vent your anger, into pixelated words on the monitor. When people reads, either they understand or misinterpret it.

Fliprogression?

I'm starting to feel improvement in flips especially in the confidence aspects in it. Soon when i get my computer fixed I will make a fliprogression video. AND the UK traceurs jam video. etc. I mean I could do flips on concrete now, without much fear or needed preparations. PK also seems to be improving just fine, SDC is probably the best of it all, but I still need to get my other movements like wallpasses and proper runs all solid. It was a fun day yesterday making a total nuisance at the streets, gotten my long awaited round off back - on hard ground as well. I just have a few more aims.. to get my sideflips in line and backflip too. I am pretty sure all the other movements will come down soon, especially gainer. Gotta need to push my limits more and not be scared of trying new stuffs.. wall sides and fronts.. the only way to get it is by doing it. Just keep training the flips. Handstands also improving.. abit. Maybe I should really get it consistent and start walking around with my hands more often. All part of it. Gonna nail new stuffs every training session. Gym stuffs are also handling well, but prelims are around the corner and olevels inching ever closer. so time is a limiting factor, and i should make sure i make full use of it instead of wasting time doing nonsensical things.... for some time already.
