-> boulderactive
hmmms, ytd was my comp fer boulderactive i did well? i duno. if i'm nt wrong, last year's boulderactive i think i am in e late 20 plus positions of 40 plus peeps. but tis year, i'm in e 35th position out of 56 peeps. of 4 routes, i only managed to complete one route (the balancy route) aft 3 tries.
can sae 1st 3 routes i couldn't think man. i couldn't think of ways to climb and i'm wasting my tries. my on site wasn't gd so i took more tries. but e tries i took oso nv progress tiles of climb.
1st route, i only can go till e 2nd tile fer all e tries. really can't think. only when i am restin goin fer e next route, then i tot of how. man. i jus need more time. but too bad, it's only given 3min per route n 3min to rest.
2nd route also only can reach till e 3rd tile. fer e tries i tried, i only managed till there coz e 4th tile need to jump fer it and i always slip at that.
3rd route, tis is e route i only managed to finished of all. it took mi 3 tries. e 1st try, i lost my balance and fall. e 2nd try, i start wif my hand facin e other way and there's no way i can shift or change my hand as it's a balancy route. then e 3rd try, i did it but i spent quite some time doin it. i am thankful to e route judge fer that route coz she helps. how she helps? she's motivatin, cheer mi on, and keep mi i still help time to go on and dun give up. her words, make mi go on n dun wish to give up. and it's that time, then suddenly i can tink. haa. she ask mi to look around and think. and finally i thought of how to do it. when i finished, i am very tired already. so tired till i cant stand properly so i straight away go fer e chair to sit. i 4gt to sae thank u to her and nv even look at her aft i finished. i feel so grateful to her.
last route, need to dyno coz i'm short haa. it's a roof handle fer a 2nd tile. 1st jump, no confidence. touch n drop. 2nd jump, gt confidence already but i duno why i only put in 4 fingers instead of all 5. so slip lor. 3rd jump. finally managed to hold e handle. move on to e 3rd tile and while goin fer e 4th, need to jump again fer it. couldnt reach so fall. and my 3mins ended fer dat route so is e comp fer mi in e individual novice category.
at night, i climb again. it's fer e team event. team wif steven, syafie, fadhli, zayd and ting ting. i'm e worst climber over there so they ask to take e hardest route as a techque. so that those easy ones they do have e possiblity of finishing. 6 of us each climb one route together and steven, ting ting and fad managed to finish their routes. we gt third fer dis category.
fer e team event, i only can touch 2 tiles no matter how many times i try. and after e whole thing, i'm thinkin without mi, could they get a better placing if joyce or ting yin was in their team?
