Birth Of The Impossible

My blog Sounds COol right? Althought i steal from addidas but it is something that i believe in. I always see that glimpse of success no matter how bad the situation is or how tough it is to take to pull it through. Nothing is impossible, its all in your mind. XD Bleah~

Alright, lets get down to business. Today was my 1st day of work. OMG! They called me yesterday and ask me if i can work ' tomorrow' which is today lar. After waiting for so many days, i agree to it. For those who dont know, i work as a Technical Support Officer in Engineering department. My job scope revolve around doing circuit design for projects. Thanks to all staff who helped me get this $80 a day job. =D

Ok so i signed the contract in the morning, then i called my supervisor. I have nothing to do till 2pm. I went to watch American High School Allstar game. Then went to sports complex to do some stretch cords. Did sets of 3 x30. Then Raymond came. Heng he come, else i will be bored.

We went up to his lab and surf the net, listen to 933, and watch a funny 'mario' video. It was about this guy playing mario and was stucked as world 1-2 . The level of difficulty is god-liked and he was so frastrated and he broke the console when he cant passed world 1-2. It was so funny listening him commenting the game.

Went to lunch and finally i am able to do some work. I was allocated a workspace at lab located at block 24 level 1. My first project was ' FIRA ROBOT '. Mr Wee passed me the robot which was done by the previous group. I need to remove the circuitry and design a new 1 that fits to the new target board (iNova). I started my planning and so on and so on... and so on... so on.... on.. n..zzzzzz

When the digital digit of my watch display '5:45' .. OH!! BAN GAN liao!!! I managed to develop a vero board circuit for interfacing the iNova Board to the motor. I will start soldering tomorrow and hopefully i can start programming on friday.

I packed up everything and went for training. I was late so i miss the warm up. Today's sets were 10x400m with 400m active recovery. It was suppose to be a VO2 max , working on anaerobic threshold. However, i cannt hit my VO2 max timing.

Possible reason:
1) My rest too short. I did a 1 : 1.5 work to recovery ratio.
2) No motivation. Was doing it alone cause of my short rest (back to reason #1)
3) Poor anaerobic metabolism.

Splits time:
1:17
1:17
1:18
1:20
1:20
1:21
1:22
1:24
1:25
1:17
1:11

I did an 11th sets with everyone and i manage to pull of a 1:11 not putting in all out effort.
I guess i need to work hard on my anaerobic threshold.
Coach say maybe my arobic metabolism is stronger, asked me to try for a few more anaerobic workout and push hard when doing arobic workout.

Dinner and rush home. Gotta do some last minute grooming and rest early for an important interview tomorrow. WIsh me luck! =)

GOOD NIGHT.
