Wad a pleasant surprise i got when i return home from school just a while ago, i saw something on my desk, something that looks like a letter or card, with an all so familiar handwriting on the front with air mail stamped on it...IT's SOMETHING FROM HOME!!!..wad's MORE!!..it's a card from MDM PANG!!!..oh my oh my..i was so happy when i saw her handwriting, and there i was still thinking why she didn't reply to my email or to birthday greeting sent via SMS as well as a card sent back home, it's probably cos she's too busy with her stuffs and all. Enclosed with the card was a bookmark, that's the 3rd or 4th bookmark she's given me...hmm..do teachers like to give bookmarks?..kinda like me..if u guys still remember for a few yrs when i sent out Christmas cards, enclosed was a bookmark..hhaa...nevertheless, am always happy to receive something from Mdm Pang, wadever the thing might be..

Went for Brisbane Open on sunday, took part in "C" grade, lost in the 2nd round, but i won straight sets in the first round, and lost 3-1 in the 2nd, the 4th set lost 12-10, close, but still lost, heard that the guy went on to win the whole thing...well, i definately learnt something from the championship..that is NEVER NEVER give up no matter how bleak the chances may seem, while waiting for my 2nd round to begin i was sitting there watching some other category going on, this guy..he came from 9-2 down to win the set 11-9 and the match as well..i was sitting there in awe..THERE was my inspiration..that's wad kept me going during my 2nd round..i kept telling myself not to give up, that's how i got a set off the match..

Am starting to get the hang of my long pimps..definately improving..i just realised i don't have to just block against topspin, with the correct technique i can counter a topspin attack, i never knew that, all throughout my 3 yrs in poly Coach jus said to block topspin attacks and i can clearly remember the tons of times i got frustrated cos i couldn't get it done properly since i was more of an aggresive player...so..with a newfound technique thanks to Stanley..i shall work hard on it..

OH MAN!!!..there's this guy in my IB class that's just getting on my nerves, honestly, i've NEVER been irritated by a guy soo much before..at first i thought i was being helpful since he's from China that i'd give him a hand in understanding some of the things taught, then came the individual presentations, we all had our parts delegated, since the presentation was solely individual, there was no marks for group effort, not that i don't wanna help him, but i haven't even finished my part and he keeps pestering me to help him with his part, ok, then i gave him a few examples as to how to go about talking bout his part and i told him to follow the examples and come up with similar ones for the other points and he kept telling me that he can't find anything on the web and i had to emphasize SOOOO many times that there's no need to look up the net, for eg, legal issues??..wad might be a few legal issues that poses as a problem to a production plant in China??..i think i just say this alot of u can come up with a few ideas already..and he kept telling me he dunno how to do it..asking me for more examples..then over the MSN i told him that: "i keep giving u examples might as well i do for u". u noe wad he reply me?? he said: "that won't be nice, cos i didn't do much for it"..KAOZ!!! i nearly FAINTED CAN!!!..and i replied him: "well, i DUN LITERALLY mean that". whether or not he got my point i have no idea!!..he's jus pissing me off that day, and i was in the midst of doing my presentation parts as well...make me dun feel like doing anymore man...

and he keeps wanting to do the online law quiz with me...cos he says that: "i believe when we do together, we can get a 5/5" i'm like -_-"..first time i did together with him, he got 4.5..i got 3.5..so wad can i do??PUT THE BLAME ON HIM!!???no right..that's why i wanna do on my own...the very first time he asked me how much i got for my quiz i told him 3.5, and i tot that's not too bad cos it's last minute ma..then he was like.."but that's below average" i'm like..erm..ok..shrugged him off last week...told him to do himself..he wants to do it together next week again, i told him to do himself, cos i dunno when i will do it..

YESTERDAY!!! he asked me for my exam timetable..cos...HE WANTS TO STUDY WITH ME FOR IB!!!..í was like NO NO NO a thousand times NO!!!..i was so miserable behind the computer screen..(keeping in mind that all these conversations are in MSN) i dunno how to face him and tell him all these cos he will surely see a very pissed and irritated face of mine..so i told him that i cannot concentrate in a group and i prefer studying on my own..imagine if i study with him..poor me will be suffering for how ever long it might be and trying to explain to him the stuffs...and he always say stuffs like cos i'm more clever than him..i'm like -_-????and when doing the visuals for the presentation..he was like asking me EVERYTHING!!!...from should print colour??landscape??...i was like..it's ur own thing u make u own decisions, dun have to ask me everything..then he was saying that he's just asking for my opinion, doesn't mean i'm clever...i was like -_-??!!oh man, he doesn't know how to speak man..i was like ah forget it la..can't be bothered with him....ARGH!!..i'm now officially like avoiding him at all costs man..i skipped tutorial and lecture last week just so not to see his face..

and i have to speak to him in Cantonese...phew..now that's a long post...those irritating events happened across a few days...so it's like a summarized version over here...haha...and everytime i'm on MSN with him..and he starts irritating me..i'll repeat wadever in the conversation to huimin and sharon..and they too get irritated..haha..
