Day 2 (Monday)@Rawai, Phuket

Got up ay 6.00am... My first day of training. Dunno what to expect... Geeee... Was cold & i tumbled out of the bed, forlorn... The bathroom reeks with urine stench man.. shite. I got ready quickly & me & bro jogged to the gym. I struggled to keep up & he just went on & left me behind... Some brother...

Reached the gym, exhausted and we got our hand wraps. Fad, the trainer was very nice & taught us the proper way to tie the wrap. Then Joy took over the 1st session & asked us to shadow box facing the huge mirror. He's kinda a seasoned fighter so he assessed us that way. He can tell how much training you had before by your jabs, kicks & etc... He was very cold & not so friendly. He taught us the Muay Thai way of right kick, left kick, right knee, left knee & we had to kick the freaking punching bag barefoot! Fark! That really hurt like hell.... Then we found out the shin-guard was outta stock.. Darn...

We had lunch at Nate2 Cafe just a stone's throw away from Goong's. I had a friend rice with tomato squids & onions. Was lovely! Costs RM5... Same like KL mamak price... Nates is lovely.. Lots of plants... We were even friendly greeted by nate's in-house dog.. haha

Our 2nd session at 4pm was with Bungman!!! He is a mean looking killing machine with a pot-belly!!! Ha Ha... He taught us very well & we caught very quickly. I kept apologizing everytime I hit qwrongly or too hard, but Bungman was really nice, he will say "Its ok, Its ok" :-) Was kinda freaky but exciting to train on a boxing ring. I was in pain by the time training ended at 5.30pm. I met Amy & she was very sweet to offer me a ride home, so I suggested dinner later & she said the gang was going somewhere so we were welcomed to join.

Amy came knocking around 8pm, and we were going to Da Vinci, a very contemporary Italian Restaurant. I rode with Alex and he was very funny! He laughed when i told him "Hey, dun go so fast ya!" We had a pizza and it was alrite la, I'll take Bel Pasto's pizza anytime, anyday...
Went to bed with sores all over... Dint sleep too well with all the pain :-(
