Adjay77’s Memories…

For quite a while now i’ve been playing a sport which has really helped me a lot when it comes to stress relief. That one and only sport which I look forward to every week. Playing it once, sometimes trice a week. Playing till I feel like my are is about to fall of and my back and knees feel like breaking. Listening to the sweet sound of crashing pins of a Strike, the glory of getting a Turkey or the humiliation on spinning or hooking into the gutter. What am I talking about? Bowling

How long has it been before I finally picked up a bowling ball? I think probably about 3 years. I was still studying back then. Now i’m throwing a neon-green, 13 pound Hook ball at defenceless pins. But their not that defenceless. Those pins have faces of people or things which I so dearly HATE. Remember when I said bowling is great stress relief sport. Now you’ll know why. Ever had a time when nothing seems to go your way, and everybody is on your case about something? Just put a face on one (or all) the pins and let the ball loose with accute pressision release and calculation. Then watch the pins explode with great sense of satisfactions. now multiply it with as many games your playing. What do you get? A great physical, cardiovascular and mentally satisfying game.

What more can I say about this sport (other than my TaeKwan Do classes)? Intense satisfaction. Have I said that already? More satisfying now that I have my own bowling ball and shoes. I might just get another bowling ball and those bags with wheels. Lugging a 13 pound ball is murder on the shoulder using a sling bag. Add another 13 pound ball?? I might as well get a shoulder implant! I know my right arm is slightly bigger and stronger with all the throwing around.

Anyway, Nuf’ Said. LaterZ.
