Today was a great day. First Podolsing(lol) brought a soccer ball for us to play during our free time. So after our PE lecture, we joined the PE lessons of the JC2s to play badminton. Afterwards we went on to play soccer on the field. Played shooting and crossing. Then others came including 2 JC2s. Played on the hockey court. Haha did not play too well cause i was saving energy for the soccer trials in the afternoon. After that was chemistry lecture. Wasn't that boring. Gotta revise everything during the weekends. Physics, Chemistry and Maths. Went on to friday prayers after that.
CCA trials day. Went for the guitar test first. They had to test those with guitar background. My OGL Mabel brought me to the test room and gave me some encouragement. Walked inside. Two guitars were in the room. They asked me to sit down and filled in a form. Picked up the guitar and asked me to play on the e string some plucking technique which i knew how to do but didn't know what was the name of the technique
Tester: Play the ----- technique like this
Amir: Ermmmm. My theory is not that good.
Tester: Okay play it like this (showed me)
Amir: Oh OK
Then went on with hearing skills. Asked me which note was higher pitched. Played 2 notes. And i answered correctly. The rhythm testing was quite lame. Asked me to follow the rhythm of the clapping. Not the strumming of the guitar. So i clapped at what they clapped-.-. The test finished and went on to the soccer trials.
Walking to the field, one guy approched me and asked if i was going for the trials. Asked to go together as he saw me at the Soccer booth. Started with 2.4km. Just paced through the whole thing so i won't be too tired. Then went on with some basic training. We were separated into 6 groups. Then i partnered Sam(a guy in my group) and did some passing, heading, air passing and one touch.
Afterwards, we went on in our groups and played monkey. Then we played 2v2/3v3 possession game(the objective is just to retain possession with your team). Then the coach had the first elimination session. Phew luckily i wasn;t eliminated. Matthew was eliminated. Felt sorry for him. And others too. Then went on to a 7v7 game. Lazy to explain the rules. Our team won both matches. Then they eliminated 2 more. Went on to shooting. Only scored one-.- Luckily that was not part of elimination. Coach debriefed and i got into the CCA!! Haha. Kinda happy. Guessed im not going to join guitar ensemble. Well thats it
