doing
taekwondo was my dream since very young..but then, due to my very tomboy-ish nature, mum insisted on sending me for more girlie stuffs..-
piano and ballet- i guess partly she wanted me 2 fulfill what she dreamt but couldn do when she was young.. yup, i fully understand n now, i actually thank her for "forcing" me to attending both piano+ballet =) if i were to realise earlier, i guess i would have taken more initiative to actually learn both of the art...PROPERLY.
i used to complain about the ever tired+stressful trainin+piano classes i have to attend..i would try 2 escape practicing my steps+music pieces whenever i couldn,till the extend where mum had to take a cane, sit beside me after dinner everyday so that i would practice my pieces..(sambil crying la sometimes XD) but i guess somehow..the chinese sayin's true..
江山易改,本性难移. well,despite years of ballet+piano classes,yi jie remained...
yi jie. XD
after years of dreaming to do
taekwondo, it was finally fulfiled..here, in imu. where i no longer stays wif mum XP kinda regreted for not insisting mum to send me for taekwondo when i was young coz if i did, i would have already been a very "yao yeng" gal wearing the black belt uniform..like evelyn.or joan. =D anyway, i
INSISTED in joining the taekwondo club during the sem1 recruitment drive. i guess due to the stretchin i endured during ballet classes (+ gimrama XD), the stretchin part in taekwondo trainin was easy..n i
LOVED doing what i
CAN do..haha~kiasu ma..the few classes of taekwondo during form 2 helped me to figure out the basic steps of taekwondo easily as well..
front kick
turning kick
forward+back stance
horse-riding stance
lower+upper block
inner+outer block
even the warming up+the jumping over fren (which peiling hated most)...seemed so familiar to me.
so i guess i kinda fooled most of the taekwondo seniors here in imu =P they tot i was "
gifted" in taekwondo..haha..n they predicted i would actually get a double promo for my white belt grading...<
well, u know when u're dipandang tinggi,u kinda
kembang a bit de la..so when the result was anounced and i didn get a double promo,i was disappointed..VERY disappointed.i continued doing taekwondo tho(wont giv up so easily de la..unlike somebody XD)...but then, the flame kinda cool down a bit...not that enthusiastic anymore..especially after i realised that i wont get my black belt by the time i leave imu...not even if i train hard...

TOO LOW kicks?!!was angry of myself..very disappointed of myself as well...for not being good enuf in taekwondo..where's the enthusiasm i showed b4 this?!i mean, it was my
DREAM..n when now i actually have a chance to fulfill my dream...i DONT appreciate it!i was supposed to try my best n what did i do for the past yrs during training?!!complainin bout the tiring trainin,not practising when sir's not looking...even sor eng said my kicks were not as powerful as b4 anymore...heck...what m i thinking?!!
