Heyz!!!
Anywayz juz now was the TP Tennis team trials. Boring only. There were quite a number of ppl turned up to try out. Abt maybe 20-30 of them. And it was very disappointing for the guys. Theres only one guy that was very outstanding. Then another guy was quite ok. And the rest were not that good. As for the girls. Surprisingly most of them can hit but cant serve. What a shame. But then again, its ok. We need more girls!! Haha
So after the trials, they went home and we had our training as usual. We did a few physical exercises before we proceeded on to some drills. Which was closely followed by match-plays. I played singles matchplay with JC. And i won him 6-0. haahhhahaha. I wasnt really expecting it la but then i played pretty well. The reason is mainly because JC was not consistent. And another reason is his style of play complements mine. :)
Thursday theres another round of trials i think. So till then!

I have no words to describe how anxious i am. Im going to serve the nation in like less than 2 mths time!! I'll be going in on 11 June at 2 pm at Pulau Tekong. And thats like one day before my sis's birthday. Sigh. Ill be going through a 4 weeks physical training phase (PTP). Before the 9 weeks of Basic Millitary Training(BMT). T_T. Im already imagining how im gonna miss everything in this world! But nevertheless i try to be positive. Its all gonna be alright. I hope.

Hey,
Finally my parents decided to do something to my cat, Kenet. She has been sufferring a lot for so long. Her eyes have ulcer and her fur is balding and itching. So yea, we went to the vet this afternoon but they referred us to the animal hospital.
So yea, so we have to say that we were lucky. Because if we were to ignore my cat's condition, she would have become blind. So yea, they gave us antibiotics, eye gel and eye drops. Hopefully! my cat will recover. If not they say she has to undergo surgery. Tsk3.

Omg. My back still hurts. It hurts when im sitting down. And while bending down too. It doesnt hurt when im standing up or lying down. It affected my tennis greatly. Im not able to play my best. But its okay. I mean its not okay. Because i will be taking part in another tournament next month! Its not as big a tournament as the one i just joined recently. The registration fee is only $15. This time i will be participating in (hopefully, if i recovered) singles and doubles.

Ok so, since i was bored, i found smth to do!! Weee!!
Firstly, i played Pokemon game on the internet. Its exactly like the one that i used to play on the Gameboy if that does ring a bell. U noe how i was so obsessed with pokemon last time. When i was in Primary 4. That was like almost 10 yrs ago! Now, i found myself playing that game again. haha. Its a beautiful reminiscence. But its a very interesting and challenging game. Need lotsa patience to train those Pokemons.
Thats not all. Ive started to go into the internet to watch the Pokemon anime itself!! haha. Im currently watching season 1!!! Omg. the first season is always the best. I loike. But nevertheless, i enjoyed watching. Omg. Dont tell me ive became obsessed again. But no lah. Coz im i just bored and i didnt have anything to do at home. mwahaha

hey.
Life has been very boring these days. You can call me insane. In my current state of financial breakdown, i still can afford another trip to seoul garden. Haha. My friends Lah. THis time is with my tennis peeps. Elton, Jeev, Leon, and Yu Jian. It didnt cross my mind that i would eat there. They initally said they wanted to eat at food court so i followed. But then they changed their mind. Grrr.
So, sch is starting soon. Haha. I meant for the rest of the ppl. Not me. I heard many ppl complaining abt their timetable. Hahahahaha. Thats parts and parcel of poly life. Ive been there done that. I know how its like. :P
So, soon would be the tennis team recruitment drive. Im so excited! I wanna see how the freshies fare. Its definitely gonna be fun to recruit new members into the team. Cant wait. But soon, there will be a cut. The POL-ITE tournament will be in July. Hopefully im able to catch it.

Heyz
So yesterday i had chalet with my sch tennis team peeps. The chalet was at the National Service Resort & Country Club (NSRCC) at Tanah Merah there. We were looking forward to playing tennis there after learning that theres two courts there. But unfortunately mother nature let us down. But thats totally fine. Because we had bunch of other things that we could do.
Anywayz, the chalet started on Sunday but i only went on monday. I met Jeev, John, Leon, Sam and Dave at Tanah Merah at 1 pm and we went together by taking the shuttle service.
The place was very nice. When we reached the chalet, i was overwhelmed by the serenity. Ceh. No la. I meant the chalet was very nice. Loved it. So upon reaching, we settled down for a while before me and clique went to hunt for food at nearby restaurant since we were hungry.
After food, we went to visit the arcade. Haha.. Then we played pool. Which was so embarassing. I tried to avoid playing. They played a few rounds. Then the last round they ask me to play. Haha. I never played pool before! But they insisted! So yea, but its a good thing. At least i got to try. It was fun thou. =)
We then headed for the bowling alley. Met Haziq there. Hhaha. I enjoyed bowling most thou im not particularly good at it. We played 3 games. =) They had a special price for student anywayz. So the price is inexpensive.
So after bowling, the time was abt 6.30 pm and we headed back to the chalet and played xbox. We played Top Spin 2. Haha. damn fun. Time flies when we were having fun, without knowing the bbq session started already and food were cooked. We were only left to dig in. Great. Then, a crazy moment started whereby Elton! gave everyone a "drink". Haha. But me and haziq dont drink of coz. Elton's crazy man. He drank so much! Until he became drunk. Andrea became so high. Dave became so red!! His eyes were so flaming red. Scary sia. But it was fun thou to watch them.
So, the rest of the ppl played monopoly, some played L4D and dota and some continued to play fifa on xbox. I just chilled out and continued eating. Soon, abt 11.30 pm, it was time for us to go back home. A handful of them stayed over the night there and played poker. But me, haziq, leon, sam and Jeev headed home. Thanks to Sam's parents for the lift to Tanah Merah mrt. I took bus home while the rest cab pooled. Thanks guys =) Had a great time. =)

Hi there.
I just came back from my tournament. I had to say it was a good match. But unfortunately i lost. My opponent won by the score of 7-6(4), 6-3.
It was always disappointing when u were not able to close out sets or matches. I was leading 5-2 in the first set. Some how or rather the weather was blistering hot. It began to take its toll on me. All of a sudden i lost my rhythm. And it went into a tie-breaker at 6-6. Which i eventually lost 7-4.
Second set, i felt like fainting. My body felt numb. My opponent raced to a 4-0 lead. But then, i kept fighting. And the score became 4-3. Which eventually became 6-3. No doubt it was a very2 close match. One point determines it all. But kudos to my opponent for hanging on in the scorching heat. Maybe i need more experience in playing in hot weather conditions. Yea..
