    I don't really know ... I mean , everytime I play badminton I enjoy and cherish every second of it --- just the fact that I get the chance to play it at all makes it very worthwhile :cool: .

    Getting selected to attend the WTC in China this summer for 2 months :) A lot of people wanted this and I remember thinking how lucky the kids that went to Germany were. And now I get to go!

    McGill university in my city hold an annual sport festival. Although it's not a big tournament ... i still have an incredible feeling when we won all 3 matches (i play in mixed double that time) against those schools. and rooting for my team is just simply ... cool hehhehe.

    ps: i felt so guilty though playing mixed... each time they lift the bird and jump up and smash at the girl. it got so bad to the point where the girl was kinda pissed and yelled at her partner for lifting the birds lol. i felt so bad ... :(

    I've never experienced that yet...I usually get to semis and lose.

    Hrmms...but the best thing that has ever happened to me badminton related, meeting new people and making new friends i guess.

    oh...sorry...it's the IBF World Training Center. You know, one of the 5 they're building.

    I'm really excited! I leave in two weeks! And I'll be back just in time to watch Worlds!

    When playing doubles, you can always trick the players by finding empty spaces... When I succeeded, be it when serving, playing rallies, or smashing, that's the best moment .. :)

    When i'm playing against an opponent definitely stronger than me (or me and my partner in doubles), winning a rally, or gaining a point, or even better, winning the game or the match, is the BEST moment. My fist up in the air and say "Yes you can do it".

    Man uses badminton racket for self-defense
    FALKENBURG, Sweden, July 2 (UPI) -- A man at a campground in Sweden successfully used a badminton racket to fend off an attacker with a knife.
    Police said the attacker wielded a fillet knife and lunged at the man early Sunday, Sweden's The Local reported.

    No one was reported injured in the incident.

    Police said the two men were not acquainted. The attacker, whose identity remained unknown, reportedly fled the scene immediately after the altercation.

    For me it was saving 8 match points while it was 14-8 in the third set. Somehow we clicked again and scored 9 straight points to win it 17-14 and the tournament! Boy that felt good. :)
