Its been quite sometime since i update. Have been busy Ok. Anyways, just came back from Penang last night. Went there for our in-camp training. Its 1 week of hell there. Haha. Everyday we have to wake up at 6am, go for breakfast then at 7.30am wait for car to take us to the training place. We combine our training with the Malaysia Youth Team there. They are very good. Very2 good. And they are the same age as me. Haha. Very paisey to train with them.
Our 1st training with them was tough. Jogging! You dont talk to Singapore players about jogging at 9am. Haha. Everybody will curse the coach. Haha. The Malaysia players did not even complain. They were used to it. Forced ourself to jog. Jog to all the kampung there. Famous awhile. Haha. Cause all the people there was like looking at us. Haha. After jogging we thought it was over. Then suddenly the coach said we must run 2 more circuits. All the Singapore players face changed. Haha. Took turns to run. The Malaysia players was like super fit. We jog doing the circuit but they sprint. Haha. 9am the fitness starts and 12pm the fitness ends. Just imagine how tired we are. After that went back to hotel. We call the hotel heaven and the training ground hell.. Haha.
We were given 2 hours of rest. Then at 3pm, everybody have to report to the lobby for our friendly game. Played against 3 teams there. My set was with Azreen and An Ciko. Played consider well caused we are not the strongest set there. We managed to take all sets to tie break Ok. Am happy for that.
So that was our routine there. Wake up at 6am. Train from 9am to 12noon. Then at 3pm, we have our friendly game till about 6pm. Everyday we wake up with aches all over our body. What to do? Thats what in-camp training is for. To test our endurance.
Training aside. Managed to find time to do other stuffs there. Shopping is a must. Azreen was the king of shopping. Just reach Penang like about 1 hour like that, he went shopping ready. Haha. Crazy. Batu, An Ciko and Arens went to cut hair + wash. Guess how much it cost? Haha. 5RM. Singapore money is like $2+. Haha. Its a hair saloon Ok. Not some kind of barber. You cant get that type of service with $2 here at Singapore. Madness..
Althought it was a tiring trip, but to think about it, i enjoyed it. It was my first time experiencing in-camp training. Like i say always, everytime i go overseas trip, the ending part is always sad. Took pictures with the Malaysia Youth Team there. They are sure to be great players 1 day. What i like about them is that they dont act big. They talk to everyone of us. So yeah. Enjoyed every minute there.
Thats all for now. Am tired of typing.
And yes! I miss Orchard Rd. Haha!
Byes!
