so i'm back. busy is all i can say for the past weeks and days. pool, lan, good food, friends, tennis soccer and eyeshield 21 just to name a few. but i guess i will always have time to blog so why not? anyways went to watch Roger 'Fed-Ex' Federer vs Pete 'Pistol' Sampras in KL. went together with rahul and another friend, keong. i must admit i had a really good time. we were staying at a great hotel called Sunway Resort which practically had Sunway Lagoon as its backyard. so yeah you would understand why we had fun. the match was really good, i only just realised then that federer is really damn tall, oh man there goes my dream of replacing him as world no. 1. ah bugger it. so did i tell you he has REALLY sick groundstrokes?! well for those who watch tennis its totally different when you see it up close. oh man. and sampras's serve and volley style is STILL legendary with the skiddy slices and inch-perfect volleys. combined with the bullet serves. although on that day fed's serve was on top with a 234 kph serve. anyways sitting beside us was an indian dude in his 30s who was like constantly egging sampras on. like 'FIRE YOUR PISTOL, PETE!' i know how sick that sounds but apparently that guy doesn't. so after i came back i was inspired to play tennis and went for training today only to realise that my backhand is SLIGHTLY away from that of fed's. so yeah, a bit more practice and you'll see those backhand shots whizzing past you. yeah right. after training we went to buy BLim a tennis shoe after his previous one went 'koyak'. ended up buying it then walking around suntec aimlessly for like 3 hours...WTF?! that coach of mine lah has a REAL layback life, the typical mat. he even suggested instating a mat as president to have a more laidback singapore. and we were like who needs mats, his reply, 'if there was no mat. there would be no money.' HAHA. (for those who don't understand yusof bin ishak, a mat, is on singapore's notes...) so yeah came back to my place with BLim so he could play cs, and now i'm blogging. so till my next post, au revoir! and if ya have the time watch eyeshield 21. =)
