Shin Injury... Happy Mothers Day!
After a ‘great’ massage from my Aunt, who came over to stay over for a night at my house, I felt total pain all over my body. She (Aunt) is a massage therapist, who helps people to heal their aches by massaging, as well as the ‘beat-the-hell-up’ tactics on you to ensure that you recover.
Poor me, I was the ‘lucky’ guy who got beaten up tonight. The worst came when she touched my injured shin, which I hurt yesterday during soccer. The story behind that injury was because of a game, when the guy just wants to beat us, shoot the ball, but before that, after kicking my shin with his leg. Yeah, right now, my shin looks a bit weird compared to the other leg. It looks like there is a dent on my shin. Gosh! That sure worries me but I hope I would be fine the next few days, and not having a fracture… TOUCHWOOD…
Well, just some updates as usual, I was having lesson on Friday and after I head back home from school, I went to meet Auntie Emily and accompany her to her workplace. She was tired but I just hope she could bear with it that day. Her shoulder, wrist and back still hurts a lot and all I could do that day was just giving her massages on her wrist. =/
Night came and it’s soccer time. I left early as I decided to give Auntie Emily a surprise visit to her workplace before she knocks off from work. Anyway, the team managed to win all matches that night, except for the last one, when I’m not around. I managed to score a goal, which was quite lucky. A loose ball from an interception, I cut the ball to the left, avoiding the goalie, before slotting it with my outer foot, even with a player came back to guard the goal post but its too late. Nice! I failed to score a second goal from Eugene’s pass but at least, I did make a few efforts of assisting.
The first assist was a pass from me at the touchline, to Jimmy who tapped the ball in. He assumed that I was going to cross the ball for a header but think again, when did I know how to cross a ball? LOL! That’s the point that he has forgotten. The next one was again to Jimmy, which I hope he could head it but it when directly to the goalie. The goalie’s mistake for not holding the ball firmly pays the price as Jimmy gives it a shot and it went in for goal. Lastly, to Eugene! I got the ball, push it up front and managed to square the ball to him, before he makes his own run and slotted the ball into the goal. Nice touch!
Well, I met Auntie Emily that night again, and while she took a nap on the bus, I just try my best to continue massaging on her wrist. I know she had been scooping ice creams for many hours so I guess, its time for her to rest. Once I send her home, it was time I head home for rest, as I need to head back to Canberra Secondary for Mr. Lathif’s help in my Calculus.
Calculus is difficult but actually, more practice that I have done does help me to understand what I am learning after all. It isn’t that hard, especially I have a deep interest in Mathematics when I was in Secondary school. It is one of my best subjects in my school days. Well, thanks Mr. Lathif, spending the time to help me even though he is still unwell. Owe you one!
Swimming training followed later that night, and I was dying for rest after the entire training. We performed a few tows, which I have been not doing regularly since I skipped training many times this year. The worst came when I need to tow 2 people at one go, which I could not figure out how to do it. Maybe its about having more practice that makes the job easy. Haha…
Alright, time to rest now. Before I go, I wish all mothers a Happy Mothers Day. =]
** I don’t know what you are thinking but all I know is that, you must enjoy your day with Mummy during Mothers Day alright? =] L.U.
