Windsurfng 101

Two windsurfing crash course over the weekends at East Coast Beach.

Fantabulous! Don't ya agree with me Nim and Nehu?

I had fun on the first day already, but not the two of them. Heh. Of course, fun does come with a price. Lotsa bruises on my limbs, scratches, injured toes. Oh, and the icing on the cake, toner arms! Hur. Who needs to dig trench to get nice biceps when you can windsurf and bask in the sun at the same time. (note: its not that i've tried digging trench, i just thought digging would be fun and well...a great work out) Just climbing up the board from the water and uphoring the sail is good enough for a fantastic workout!

So Day 1 of the course, infinite falls and screams. heh. Lotsa balancing. Damn alot of bruise. That bloody tide drifted my sail board onto the shore, and the damn dagger pinched into my calves. WTF. On the first day, very choppy waters, high tide made it almost impossible to stand up properly, so much for learning about 180 degrees turn when we already had problems with uphore. But hey! the instructor said i was doing fine, and that i was strong when i could flip my sail board over when the thing capsized. Hehe.

Day 2 the low and calm tide was a moral booster. All of us had fun. Hey, we don't suck afterall! Blame it on the choppy water on Day1! Even the instructors said the water on day one was "freaky". All of us managed to sail! Whee! And stupid Nim sailed to the breakwater and didn't know how to return. And plus there was lightning and the rain drops was so painful. Nim is a damsel in distress. ( eh why you never use the distress signal? AHAHAH)

The sea water made my skin and my precious hair very dry. So, i would need a facial and hair treatment ASAP! And i think the sea water made my contacts abit harder and stiffer. Is it because its hypertonic? Don't know. I'm anticipating some muscles aches tomorrow. And i hope the bruise don't become too obvious on my legs. If not, i'll look abused.

Carrying the sail and the rig back was quite a bitch. Not to mention, we have to wash it for them too. URGHHH.

Windsurfing really drained all my energy. After windsurfing, i ate so much. Its like carbo overload like never before! Woahh.
I hope my hair becomes less dry. .
