Describing Badminton in Words...

Instead of swimming, we went for a little hike at Youth Park and a smashing-hour at the court. It was overall something I've never done with any of my frens who came back from wherever they're working. Usually my outings consist of makan, movies and shopping. I prefer doing sporting and adventurous stuff like this compared to the usual ones. I'm still waiting for ppl to accompany me to go jungle trekking, jet-skiing, wall-climbing, rock-climbing, flying-fox, stream-strolling, face-painting, paintball and kayaking....

We were thinking of taking the court for a couple of hours but then I had to rush home after that. So, we played for an hour. Mind you I've stopped playing badminton for more than a decade. I thought I was gonna be busy picking the shuttle cock but it was the other way round. Hehehee.... I can still play :)


The half an hour smashed-off easily. We got the kick of the game in less than 5 minutes. After that half an hour, we were sweating like pigs. Chun's palm got blisters all over. The next half an hour we were just smashing away, hoping that the shuttle cock wouldn't end up in our own court. Too lazy to pick up the shuttle cock. No wonder can hurt the back. We would do anything just NOT to let the shuttle cock land on our court. Let your opponent 'exercise' running from the left to the right, front and back. Then you'll have an evil grin stuck on your face when you see that the shuttle cock landed on the other side.

I don't play doubles. I don't share... so don't expect me to share half of that small court with another fella. I need space.. and a lot of space in fact. Same for squash.. no sharing.. I'll sure collide with that person or smashed that person up badly with my racquet. Hahaha.. LX, I remember accidentally hitting you with the squash racquet when we played at Eunice Lee's place in N-Park. Tennis... I still remember the tennis balls that went flying over the fence and landed dunno where... hahahaha... LX, COME BACK!! I WANT TO PLAY WITH YOU!

You should have said earlier... never mind... we still have so many next time!! I'm so glad!!!
