Ultimate Frisbee and Tutoring

So, I got a job. I'm going to be tutoring a 12th grader and preparing him for his Economics A levels at the end of this year. I think it'll be tough, coz he's making tough demands on getting model essays, notes and stuff. I need to revise all my old notes and relearn the stuff that I have forgotten. Somehow, the Singapore education system fosters memorization for examinations, and once the examinations are over, most of the information leaked out of my head. Time to put them back into my head so that I can teach and get some money. First class is tomorrow. I had to head back to my junior college, RJC, to meet some of my old economics teachers and ask them for some help. I also found some of the good essays online, so that's great.

I played ultimate frisbee with Seiwei, his sister and lots of other friends. It's a game of pickup frisbee, hosted weekly by the Singapore Ultimate Association. I had lots of fun, running and getting my exercise. I feel like a dog too, jumping after flying objects. I'm seriously considering this as my next sport, so that I can keep fit and meet new people. All I need to get now is a pair of cleats, plus start practising to throw forehand. Maybe if I train hard enough, I MIGHT be able to attend the Singapore Open this year. Most probably next year.

I bought a new computer. My old one is dying. It's coming in 2 days, and I'm excited. Finally, a good computer to do my gaming! Woohoo!
