    Hi!

    Been hanging around BC for a couple of weeks now, and the members here are really helpful (and nice.. i think). I'm from Miri, Sarawak, Malaysia (parents from sibu, so my main dialect is Foochow). I used to play a bit of badminton when I was a kid, and began to get a bit serious about the game at the age of 13.

    Was sent to Sydney, Australia at the age of 15, and for three years, I didn't even touch a racquet. Badminton ain't that popular in high schools here, so yeah. Finished my high school last year, entered UNSW this year, and began to pick up on the game again. I was so rusty on the court, felt as heavy as an elephant on my first game two months ago, but improving now :)

    Anyways, nice to meet you all. I'm sure i'll learn heaps of things here, and I'm looking forward to it. Cheers.

    i thought it would be more popular in sydney because of less AFL football-mania.

    Not in my high school :D it's like.. one and a half hours away from sydney's CBD, so there's not many international students there. There was less than 20 international students last year (somewhere around 11 - 14) including me, and the majority students there were aussies.. and there's only two things they love. Cricket and football (not soccer, football :p)

    They talked more about AFL than NRL. I don't know much about these things even though i've been here for quite a while haha. They're all the same to me. Get an oval shaped ball, pass around, kick around. Was never interested in the sport.
