To the tennis peeps,Thank u all for the great time at the BBQ chalet las sat. It was a blast and definately most fun i had in a while. Its not always im exposed to nice, fun and kind pple like the tennis peeps. I'm glad Clinton invited me thou i aint exactly in the team. Most of team members turned up for the BBQ, which was really nice of em, at least they made an effort. AND KAT ACTUALLY SHOWED UP!!!! MISSED U GAL!!!Cara and I arrived at East Coast at ard 7+. Costa sands chalet? Had to walk one big supa round juz to get to Blk A 8. Coz unlike the past, the chalets were now all fenced up seperating the huge field in front of it all. So no more mini soccer while BBQ-ing. Anywayz its alrite, we had other plans up our sleeves. Considering the fact that i dun really fancy using my hands to eat, i ate quite alot that nite. We had hotdogs, crabsticks, chickenwings...and countless cups of drinks. No alcohol thou. Apparently banned for me coz of wat happened on New Year's Eve. The team will neva allow me to be in that state again. I juz got totally wasted la that fateful nite. Sorry once again guys. Now back to BBQ, muz i mention that Cara and Guihui are the best chefs wen it comes to BBQ food? Haha! And jing, for the crabsticks. The guys spent most of the evening playin games. Tink its called ....warcraft? Not too suree la. And of coz we took ALOT of pics on gui's, jing's, cara's, donna's, clinton's cameras. Pics to be uploaded real soon.After the 2hrs plus of eatin eatin and drinkin drinkin at abt 10+, we decided to make a trip to 7-11 to grab some mineral water. Terence, Vickie, Cara, Gui, Donna. But on the way there we dropped 2 of em. They gotta go home la. Spoilsport leh...Hehe. Anywayz we had the longest walk eva to 7-11. But to make our efforts worthwhile, we also went to the arcade and mac. Wanted to play bowling but none of us have socks wit us and using socks used by god knows how many other pple are definately nt a wise idea so we decided to give it a missed. Spent some time at the arcade cooling down, so glad for the aircon coz we were really sweating so much due to the long walk. Terence and Cara played The Lost World and for one i tot they'r gonna complete the game coz i swear tt they spent at least 30min in front of the screen juz shootin shootin n shootin those dinosaurs!. Haha. Pity those small boys who were waitin forever for their turn. After spending abt 1hr+ at the arcade, it was time for us to head off to mac for some food. Ok fine, onli me and vickie actually ate. Terence and Cara cldn find any space in their stomach for mac after all the food frm the BBQ i guess. I had mcchicken meal and i stil wasnt full?! Mayb onli abt 3/4 full. Haha, worms in my stomach? After makan we left for 7-11, finally. Bought many bottles of mineral water + ice lemon tea (requested by Kat) and so followed by the long walk back to the chalet. Really really tiring on our legs mann. Once we got back to the chalet, i ate again. Dis time is jing's crabsticks. I meant the crabsticks tt was personally BBQ-ed by her. Was really delicious coz it aint burnt at all and also for the fact tt she applied alot of butter on it. Haha. I ate as much as i possibly cld while a couple of us were sittin by the BBQ pit. Juz sittin and chattin away. By that time some of the guys were already upstairs snoring away so we were onli down wit Clinton, Gary, Jing, Cara, Terence, Vicki, Gabriel, Me and dis other guy whom i dunno e name (sorry dude), who were still awake. We decided to play poker cards. Played blackjack, Indian poker and dis other game. The game which requires u to come up wit a phrase and someone else gotta act the words out for the rest to guess? So yeah. Oh and i gotta say that Clinton and Gabriel got it the worse while we were playing indian poker. Clinton had to drink abt 5 huge cups of plain tap water and Gabriel 3 cups. Haha. Somehow Clinton juz kept on recievin the card wit the number '3' on it which is the smallest among all la. Haha. Gary was sayin that he might as well go n bath himself in the sea water. Lol! We got abit bored of the games after a while so we decided to stop. We ended up havin a group chat, were talkin abt the tennis ivp which is gonna be in 3weeks time and of coz some other stuff. For the first time after so long i actually felt that the tennis team had somehow bonded thru this gathering. Its really essential for a team to communicate and all with one another. So im really glad that we had the chance to sit down and mingle with pple whom we meet twice a week but rather speak to (thou im nt technically in the team). Now tennis trainin back in NYP wldn b so boring and stale, instead it wld b filled with interactions and joy. Coconut drink after every trainin session!!Actually Terence, Cara and me wanted to leave the chalet at 2+ am but we decided to drag on since we werent feelin really tired. And im glad we did coz if we were to leave earlier we wld have missed out on all the fun. Once again i'd like to say a huge thanks for all the tennis peeps!!! We shld have more of dis kinda gathering soon!PS: Stil am waitin to c all the pics taken.....Alrite shall sign off now. Take care u peeps.
