To start off with, today is Serdang Rhythmic Angels Classification Competition. The event started at about 8.30 am and continued right until 5.30 pm. A long long day indeed.I have been assigned to be the emcee of the day together with Li Xin che-che. I guess we had the easiest job there as we talked and then did our job, talked again....haha..Really, I must admit that I am really talkative.
Overall, my little girls did pretty well. All of them passed. It was a big relief for me! On certain occasions, I felt that I was overreacting communicating with the gymnasts with sign language from behind the judges table. Of course, I did not feel that way then. But on hindsight, it looked as if I was more nervous than they were.Awkward....!!
Well, now I am pretty pumped up to start training the girls all over again next Saturday. Moving on with rope and ball , starting from the basic, will not be an easy job, but I am ready to take on the challenge. At the same time, I am ready to learn and gain some experience. Guess I will be starting to scout for music right now (erm, a little too excited aren't I?)
On the sidelines, we received the presence of Miss Katja who came to watch the competition, to meet as well as to bid goodbye to all of us. She will be heading home to Germany tonight. Really hope to visit her some time soon....
The competition today wrapped up with the prize giving ceremony. From what i observed, children nowadays should show a little more manners when receiving a prize. saying 'thank you' and receiving the prize with both hands are gestures that are simple but give a much better impression to everyone.
This again proves my belief that sports can groom a well-rounded person, in terms of coordination, discipline, determination, time-management and in this case manners. That is why rhythmic gymnastics will always be part of my life.
