Day 2 for Our Tennis Lesson
Last Saturday we had our second meeting for our tennis lesson. Our instructor reviewed all the basics in tennis by letting us again execute all the past lessons. As I mentioned in my last blog about tennis that we were 3 new students but it seemed that that day we were so many in the tennis court, lots of balls were flying and old students were there also. I think our instructor should limit the number of students per session per day. It’s not gonna work well if we (his students) is given very limited time. I’m telling you, it’s not gonna work that way.

Day 1 in Tennis Lesson
This is the first official day that our tennis lesson has started. Our instructor Mr. T arrived, I guess past 8 pm, and his assistant were already there teaching some Indonesian kids and we are 2 new tennis students plus a 23 yr. old Moroccan lady.
The Racquet Parts
First the assistant taught me the parts of a racquet, which are the head, face (which is where you hit the ball), down to the neck then the grip or handle and the butt.
Then our instructor came and taught us the basics of tennis.

Tryin’ a new sport
Finally, I gave in to my friend’s (J) persuasion of trying a new sport, which is by the way she really patronizes (whom she referred as a sport with “class”). It’s been nearly 2 months that she was talking me into engaging into tennis.
Eventhough, I really liked the idea of indulging myself into a new sport which would help me also reduce my weight (still got the love handles from giving birth to my 1 year old son) and to have time for myself once in a while still I was so hesitant to join her for lot of reasons; like I don’t have a nanny who’ll take care of my kids while I’m out there and enjoying myself and second it’s still summer and sometimes humidity is so high but my hubby cooperated very well and as well as my brother, so case no. one is solved then just deal with the heat and the humidity.
