PE (FENCING)

aceaceace · Member

attire is jogging pants, pe shirt and rubber shoes. you'll be required to buy the jacket only, which you can borrow if you know someone who already has one (what i did back then). the weapons will be provided (foil)

kwela yung PE, teaches the basics of fencing. pati si coach walter torres, mabait din (though he's strict with attendance). if you're a veteran of the sport, you might get bored, unless you let the teacher know and he'll make you into his assistant/demo-person haha. :)

I enlisted for fencing too! :D I'm in section K, TTH 9.00-10.00 :)

@aceaceace: PE shirt as in ... Any shirt suitable for PE or does Ateneo have their own shirt? When we attend the first class, do we have to be in attire already?

So where do we buy jackets? [Since I don't know anyone to borrow from. @@]

Oh noooo. Will he mind if we're 3-5 minutes late? I have to run from my math class and change within the grace period. @_____@

Sayang, kala ko may ka-klase na ako. TT_____TT Wala pa akong na-meet na ka-oras ko magfencing.

Napapapraning lang ako kasi di ko alam san bibili ng jacket. We won't need it right away diba?

Nope. The prof will simply assign a beadle to collect the fees and ask you for your jacket size during one of his meetings. You don't need one right away.

@howlpanda: may bibilin PE shirt, pero around 3rd or 4th session pa siguro. good for 2yrs na yun (PE is 1st-2nd yr).

jackets, if i remember correctly, they will take orders during the first or second session. they're reasonably priced naman daw, though i have no idea how much exactly. of course, you're always welcome to buy one on your own (in case you have doubts with their pricing haha)

as for the late, had that same experience before haha. it's possible naman, with the 10-min break. or if ever, just talk to the teacher regarding your situation, he *might* be more lenient :)

one minor thing i don't like about PE is that you have to buy certain things for certain classes. that's why i chose classes that didn't require specialty equipments/uniform (unless i can borrow from someone) :)
