    Well originally i voted every hour of the day, however after my medial meniscus surgery (thankfully all was repaired and none was removed) i'm thinking about badminton every second of the day because i'm on crutches for 4 weeks and apparently can't play full badminton until 12 weeks :'(

    I was desperate enough to play stationary badminton after 3 days post surgery, couldn't help my self ;d

    But after only 5 days after the surgery i can walk and sort of do a truffle shuffle kind of run, maybe because i'm 17 and recovery is faster, dunno x.x

    Now that I've started playing badminton again, I'm beginning to think about it more and more. Even thinking about it at work. Is always looking forward to play the following week when done playing this week.

    This is an interesting topic. For me, there are two categories.

    1. Just casual thinking, ie : saw someone holding a racquet or near some sports shop, logging to badminton central, chit chat with fellow friends usually the next day. I play with two groups, one on Wed & Fri and a stronger group on Sun and would congregrate on Monday over coffee regarding the previous day's game which is very satisfying.

    2. Hard thinking : usually at night or in the morning on the bed analyzing my game on the previous session. This has help me improved my game considerably.
