irene_purinSo hi, I guess? Irene is here to show her sporty(maybe?) side! >vo
Well to the main point, after months of thought, little girl finally decided to pick up tennis again yaaay~
She decided to take a class at a community centre nearby since it has been over 3 years since she last touched her racquet for a real match (this might sound cool but trust, you'll laugh once you see her play: hitting her friend's head with her serve when they played double, running all the way from back line to hit the ball on service box and ended up bumping into the net because she couldn't stop, etc etc.)
Class options: beginner and intermediate.
Which class did she pick? Yes, it has been over 3 years since she last played, but her pride won't let herself pick beginner, so yaa~ LOL jk jk, I did read the curriculum description for beginner and it includes learning forehand, backhand, serves, game calling and rules. Given that "game calling and rules" are still there, I'm 75% confident that I can go straight to intermediate as I used to play tennis for...at least 3 years? Can't remember XD
Next item of discussion: after staring at different racquets (and the price tags) for 30mins last Thursday and another 30mins today, girl finally got this one!
Pink. Yes, it's definitely unusual to see this girl glance and even buy something pink. They also have a blue one, which will be more Irene-like, but it's not the brand she usually use and with a slightly bigger grip (Irene's palm is smol and her fingers are short LOL), so there you go! >v<
Tl;dr, be ready to see this Coolio Irene use her beautiful-and-strong racquet hitting homeruns starting this Sunday! XD
(Honestly tho, I hope my forehands and backhands are not that homerun even after not touching tennis for a looooong time *rolls around*)
