i am bored...no really

field trip to maybank starts on monday. it will be my 1st day of ipp, and hopefully i stay at amk. then i can go for trainin every mon!! if not i will rot until my strokes shrivel up to nothingness. in any case, 2 of my exams are over, leaving me with one left - investments. well, the worst of the papers are gone, so its not so taxing on the last one. and i got 2 days to prepare for it - today and tmr. then on fri mornin 10.30 or so, i would be a free man for 3 days till monday -_-ll


tennis is now taking up my spare time between study sessions. i cant leave my racquet collecting dust for more than 5 days runnin or my strokes will go haywire!! i cant risk losing my forehand!! its the WANK!!!!!!!! and today while playing with phelan and 2 of his frens, i found out that my forehand is getting rusty....AAAAARRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!! NO!!! oh well, thats what rain does to ur strokes - make them rusty.


as for now, i've been addicted to metal for quite some time and my parents are joining forces to scold me whenever they see the opportunity cos they cant stand it. wtf it aint even loud and they are scolding me...pls!! ah fine nvm, in situations like these, the invention of the headset comes in handy. just pluck it in and u get wonderful music that u can blast till u go siao and no1 will hear a thing. hmmm, i am getting abit bored now, diff ppl end their exams on diff days, so sian, plus no1 in class plays tennis to my standard, some of them play lar, but i cant stand them, and from wat i hear, they suck big time, so dun waste my time and patience playing with ppl i cant stand when they arent even my std. sheesh if phelan aint taking a break on fri, i might haf end up playing with camel -_-ll ok that sounds so wrong...i meant playing tennis, wat were u thinking?!?!

tennis

i guess i still cant bear to hang up my racquet as yet, i've been going for every damn training since the ivp ended, only that i went in everything but tennis gear -.- so i am thinking that i just go down for trainin cos after exams, its gonna be 2 months w/o training...maybe save going for tennis on sun with my dad or going school on sat to play with the guys. haiz, sad. then my forehand will go down the drain again. i took so much pain to change my grip from eastern to semi western, i dun wanna lose it! its damn big! its a damn huge forehand that i dun wanna lose. the timing, the swing, the contact point. all the important factors of my killer forehand. i must find some way to keep it in shape during the 2 months, then go back training can thrash all the BEGINNERS in the nyp SCHOOL TEAM!!! still cant imagine the school team now has more than 10 students picked from the beginners class!! i mean wtf?!?! its the school team! and we have beginners? its so wrong!


ah screw that, i hack care how many noobs the team has alr! i go there to enjoy my tennis, not care abt the noobs there! they can stare in awe at my forehand and wank there for all i care! ok i think i should calm down, i'm getting pissed over something that is not even related to me anymore...i've graduated form the team alr!


BUT!! today was fun...wen hao and david came down to play with us, though the only problem is that the balls were all the soft trainers from the hopper. but even though it was the trainers, we still had some fun rallies. before that, i won 2 doubles sets. for the 1st, i teamed up with zhenyan to beat chubby and cartoon 6-3, and the 2nd, i teamed up with my dbls partner gabriel against zhenyan and chubby. the 1st one was faster cos my forehand was working well even from behind the baseline, but for the 2nd set, my strokes were failing me, especially my 2nd serve!! but in the end, we fought back from 1-4 down to win 6-4. sorry to cartoon and chubby though, i didnt really give them a chance to recover from a weak 2nd serve fom their partner, i literally ended alot of points on the 2nd serve by blasting the netman...but i still think playing against wenhao and david today was the wank...talking about wank, i influenced david to use the word wank hahahaha...ok back to topic, even though we were using trainers that were alr soft, david's full western forehand was still damn gay! the spin kicked the ball up damn fast! i cant imagine wat woul happen if we were using new balls. and there was wenhao's feeding ball, it was so wank that sometimes the ball wont even bounce up. and his forehand has sometimes got the foward spin, so even if u try to step back, its not gonna be any good...david's forehand only kicks up but the spin is more consistent. playing them was really good exercise man, they somehow can make me run though we were playing half court, then we were playing all the fast ball, i had to swing the racquet to get the racquet going, unlike using new balls, which didnt require much strength to hit across the net.


after tennis was a chit chat session at amk hub, there was alot to talk abt and of cos we ate there. it was friggin crowded since it was the weekend alr, so we ate at mos burger, which had very few ppl. gab, phua, wenhao, david and me were sitting on one table while jq had to sit with sam and sheena. so sad, hahaha. he got left out in the conversation.


oh well, for now, the exmas are coming and i have only finished one subject!! omg!! but i think i am still on time. i alr finished the subject i am the most afraid abt, so i aint so scared. and i only got 3 papers this sem, with entre being the last non-examinable module to be over by tmr...haiz, presentation to real life judges some more...wank sia. ok thats it for now, time to sleep....
