Ries & The Small White Balls

Dear Diary,

I simply cannot help but wonder how men and women can make millions of pounds playing a game that looks so simple on TV. Honestly, who can't hit a ball into a hole with 4 or 5 tries? But when I first got my hands onto the club about 2 years back with Jonathan on east coast driving range, I must confess.... its not as easy as it looks on the screen. I missed most of my shots and its with his encouragements that I eventually managed to hit one or two not too bad ones. That was my first encounter with the small white balls.

I joined a golf academy this year as a marketing staff and that brought the reunion of me and the small white balls. I got to understand more about golf and I gradually fell in love with it. Since I'm working at a golf course, I decided to make full use of it. Bought my first pair of glove and started to hit the balls together with my workmates. As and when some of our coaches will come by drop a a tip or two when they have no students. :)

As I learn, I got to realised that golf cultivates your patience, focus and determination. Suits me... haha! But my ankle problem is back again aft helping out to shift our training room so I have to stop for a while... I will continue once my ankle gets better. Hopefully I can get my PC soon! Cant wait to head to the GREENS!!!!!
