    Actually Fend, I only do the articles, not the photos. The IBF people get my articles and then they put in the photos. So once again, don't be so quick to pass judgment before getting to the bottom of things. Add that one more beer to the one you already owe me.

    Thanks too for the $10 bet that you lost for betting for Australia against NZ..DUH! :p

    *mumble*

    I've sent 4 articles already to the IBF for them to publish on the website but due to some IT problems, they can't put them up yet, bummer! :crying:

    Hopefully, they'll all turn up soon! Having a great time here! Lots of hard work! Everyday it starts at 9am and I literally stayed here until the games finish, normally after 11pm! Longer hours than normal working hours!! Still, can't complain, get to see the games and rub shoulders with top players!

    Will gossip more later. For now, I just want to say thanks guys for the encouragement and support! I'm working towards being asked to cover the Thomas Cup and Uber cup finals in Tokyo! *keeping fingers tightly crossed*

    Oh What a Night!!

    Malaysia has won the gold medal and I was there for the historic moment! Well, me, Loh, Maz and FEND actually...it was amazing! We then all took pictures with the players! I got mine taken with WMC, LCW, CCM&KKK and WMC even lent me her gold medal so I can pretend that it was me instead of her that helped Malaysia won the gold medal, hehehe :D

    She's a nice person...hehehe, too bad IBF not paying me for my one to one interviews with all these players...big mistake! :p I got great ones with WMC, LCW, Emms/Robertson and the new Indian sensation, Saina Nehwal. Next on my list will be Ronald Susilo, Lili and Clark/Blair.

    Hopefully my report on the gold medals night will be out tomorrow.

    maybe u should interview Aamir:D :D :D . ask him how he feels about his comments that day. why is his socalled sure win became a tragedy? why is Malaysia which is not even in his list can beat the odds and became a champion? and also ask him to visit this website to chat with us, i am sure there will be many questions waiting for him.

    the latest rumor is that IBF is gonna lay the blame of slow badminton progress in North & South America to some IT problems as well;)

    all the final and semis and quarters for lawn bowl are sold out, only 1 day out all left i think...and badminton todays the only day that has tickets left...
    If anyone has badminton tickets for semis I would do anything to have them...I'll even go to ur place to pick them up...

    Nice article Adelina. It's strange and interesting, but somehow it feels like something you would write :). Although a little verbose at times:
    Try saying that sentence 10 times fast :p
