Badminton with secondary school friends...

Woooooo! Yesterday played badminton with my friends again. It was like ages since we last played. I walked to Anchorvale CC by my own at 1.50. However upon passing prime supermarket I saw Nizar walking as well. Went into the supermarket and bought a 1.5 litre carrot juice. Damn thirsty.

Walked 2 LRT station to Farmway where we met Wilson. Walked to the Mac in the CC to meet Dalilah and Jia Ying b4 proceeding to the badminton courts upstairs. As usual, the 1st 3 courts are taken up for gymnastics. We had already booked court 4 and 5 from 2 to 4 on wednesday but court 4 was occupied when we came. After talking nicely to the people, the court is ours.

The room was quite crowded as all the courts were booked. We reached at 2.15 which was 15 minutes late. Of course, the journey there was 15 minutes so no wonder the lateness. Holiday wad. We played stroke until about 2.50. Never played doubles because we all are only stroking with each other.Then as usual, we draw lots to see who face who for the competition. Well Damn tired. My 1st game was against Zhen Hua. We played service and only server gets points. 3 sets of 11 points. The game went on for 40 mins cos we were stuck at 6-7 as the service kept changing with no one scoring.

Damn exhausted la. Zhen Hua won the game and I helped him to play the semi'finals 1st match. 2nd match he played halfway and i continued playing for him.

I achieved something great today. I played with Joseph and he never scored a point from me. LOL.

Went Mac had a drink and ate sundae. At night ate KFC with my family. Ok to eat fast food cos I seldom eat now. However, I seriously need to cut down on drinking soft drinks and coloured drinks. Drank 1.5 litre carrot juice, 1 can of coke, 1 regular coke and 1 regular pepsi. My God.

Extreme rules is this Sunday so here I go again



Vickie Guerrero vs Santina Marella for Miss Wrestlemania (Hog Pen match):
Vickie Guerrero retains because Chavo Guererro will most probably help her.

CM Punk vs Umaga (Samoan Strap match): CM Punk will win because in the history, any matches in favour of 1 person , the winner will always be the opponent. In this case, the Samoan strap is from Umaga so it will be in favour of him.

Kofi Kingston vs MVP vs Matt Hardy vs William Regal for United States championship (Fatal 4 way match): Kofi Kingston retains

Christian vs Jack Swagger vs Tommy Dreamer (Triple threat hardcore extreme rules match): Tommy Dreamer wins because his contract expires this Sunday.

Rey Mysterio vs Chris Jericho for the Intercontinental championship (No Holds Barred match): Rey Mysterio retains.

John Cena vs Big Show (Submission match): John Cena wins but not by STFU.

Edge vs Jeff Hardy for the world Heavyweight championship (Ladder match): Jeff Hardy wins because his contract is also expiring and ladders are his forte.

Randy Orton vs Batista for the WWE championship (Steel Cage match): Batista wins and maybe the return of Triple H.
