A Virgin

Like a virgin, touch for the very first time.

Yes, I’m virgin all over again. You believe me? Why not?! >.<

I lost my virginity in teaching RPM! I was returning back to Penang on Wednesday, and my first RPM was on Thursday class. Reach gym, hang out awhile, read newspaper then I saw my He-Who-Must-Not-be-Named, he was chatting with the-Naughty-One and another instructor. I then pass him my pass letter and assessment sheet to him, we all chat and talk about my experience in Bali training, then suddenly

“later you do track 3 ar”

O_O “err… ok”

I then immediately go back to my locker, get my player and start to listen to the music coz I not prepare at all!

Later in RPM studio, I was nervous when I was in stage bike, not that I never did this before, but I never teach in a class!!

“Can you do track 4? You know the choreo?”

“err.. not remember much wor…”

“then never mind lah, you just do track 3”

Time up! the class almost start, the class almost full!

“hello, today we got new instructor! Mr. Paul!”

I donno why sometime he likes to refer me as Mr. Paul…. –.-“

When reach my track, I was nervous; indeed I feel like a virgin, touch for the very first time!

Track 3 is rolling hills, the ride is with the feeling you are riding on hill. I got carried away by the music, I was from RPM48 release, Madonna’s Celebration. I turn up the resistant too much!

After the class over, he as the-Naughty-One to evaluate me coz he in the class as well. The evaluation I got.

1. chorey good
2. Coaching, ok. not expected to be good coz after all it was my first attempt
3. timing. I need to improve my timing
4. resistant. some part my resistant not enough and some part I turn too much resistant. I need to
     learn  to manage my resistant.

“Don’t give up and shy, team teach few more time and I’ll be good!”

Of course I won’t give up! I gonna put more effort and looking forward to do my next team teach!

1st attempt: 1 track
2nd attempt: 2 tracks
3rd attempt: 4 tracks (1st half of the class)

Wish me luck!

Surprise in RPM Training

I was the first participant who arrived at the fitness centre among all of the participants. After I get myself change, I walk into gym and saw Dan. Then another member reached, we then chatted. Dan ask what track is my favourite, said 3 and thus he assign me track 3. I was the only participant he allow to choose, the rest he assign.. heheh..

RPM Kit

After awhile, most of the participant arrived, there is 1 cute guy, local; Balinese ^_^. He took the bike next to mine during master class…. (happy happy joy joy). After that we introduction among each other and then tutorial class… ok here come the 1st surprise.. that cute guy was assign the same track with me by Dan!!! >.<

So when the session we had to listen to our assigned track, he don’t have player with him, so; since he and I having the same track, being a good heart, I ma share with him my player lor.. he had left side and I had right side. So happen he don’t have experience in RPM class before, so, again; me being baik hati guide him on the choreography lor…. so baik kan? hahhaa…

After the session over, he ask me my Facebook account! >.<

Before end of today class, we had to fill up some form, the cute guy not understand about “contact person during emergency” column, he thus ask me about it, I then explain to him can fill in his family member, girl friend, etc. Dan was next to us when I explaining to him, he then suddenly make remark,

“Yes, family member, girlfriend, or BOYFRIEND also can”

I was like O_O in my heart….

Am I that obvious?! >.<

Great Expectation

Is not Charles Dickson’s novel, Great Expectation, is expectation towards me attending RPM module training from fellow gym members and instructors and of course my own expectation.

Gym GXM no need to say anymore, he also being RPM instructor, every time in his class he push towards the limits and guide me on the pace and timing.

This evening before gym class start, as usual I’ll chill out in Starbucks, suddenly the-Naughty-One with his girl friend walk from behind and suddenly said “hello RPM instructor…” and thus tell his girlfriend (which I know who) that I’m going to take the instructor module. Not yet attending the training already introduce me like that… sigh… –.-“

Then just before Pump class start, it was Body Step class, Body Step instructor, also quite sok with me one, emm…. let’s call him the-Cheeky-One, asked me am I taking RPM module training, and he wanna join my class.

Also many other fellow regular RPM-ers give me supports and encouragement. I guess their expectation not just I pass, also must conduct the class in very intense manner.

Sure I can do it!

Suddenly I see
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see
Why the hell it means so much to me

Everything is created twice, first in the mind then in reality.
