I went to play ball machine with Emily today. It was good hitting as hard as possible on the FHs and BHs without fearing that the ball will fly out, hahaha. After the workout, I went on to stroke with Cuong and CH Shek (my 3.0W team captain) coz not satiated. It feels good to stroke with the guys for a change coz they hit the ball with so much pace and it's great to be able to move around freely. The 2 guys played against me and I had a good workout and actually sweated for a change, hahaha.
Then I came home and checked my email only to find that Larry, our CSF Tennis Director wrote me an email copying the 3 other 3 women who played doubles with me on Monday saying that we must book a tennis court for a doubles booking (1.5 hours court time) rather than make 2 singles booking back-to-back for a 2 hour court time. I heard Sylvia mentioned that we have 2 hour court time when she walked onto court on Monday. I heard her mentioned it twice but stupid me, never dawned on me to ask her why 2 hours and not 1.5 hours. I guess I was just so enthused about playing that I am not bothered to find out why. With Larry's email chiding us, I finally realized what Sylvia meant and I felt so guilty so, I guess, I have more explaining to do with Larry when I see him for lessons on Thurs (4/2). There's just so much to learn about court reservations and the "do's" and "dont's" and I am overwhelmed by it. And yes, had I asked Sylvia on Monday itself and find out that what she did was in violation of court reservation, I would've cleared my name of ignorance with Larry on the same day and not wait till I get a telling off to explain.
Sigh.... so much to learn...
