    Hmm I'm not sure if I'll be able to join... I want to but am really busy lately, and also I doubt I can rush to YCK by 5pm or even 6 haha. I think most likely I'll just join u at mr choo's this sat ^^ Why you still in the beginner's session btw? Can upgrade le ba?

    haha cannot la...my shots are inconsistent. on fri i played quite well in ur session but when i went to choo's session on sat, my shots were not as gd. smashes not like those on fri,drops n cross courts were bad. everything was bad! must train more with them first before i can upgrade. haha. oh ya the hall for choo's session is kinda slippery cos the town council just polished the floor on last sat.

    court 2 had been clean, when i was there last sun, it is no more slippery...

    both of u n kenneth if he's playing; should play the 2.30 to 4.30 session... u need to play with players that r better than u before u can improve... always play with ppl ur level or below will bring down ur level of play too...

    don't mind me "kay-poh"...

    Totally agree with uncle tanlee, was once playing with my beginner collegues just once per week ( for my only badminton session) for a 2 months only to realise later that I cannot execute shots properly after a while..

    haha yea uncle tan. thanks for the advice. i wanted to join the beginner's session just thinking that i can practice my placements and execution of my shots but i was wrong. it didnt help me much. i felt that the friday session we had was really gd, they really pushed me to the limit. i was at my best that day perhaps of pressure from the advanced guy? haha. alex i will change with u if u wanna change to intermediate but u have to help me ask choo cos he booked 2 courts this week and he only have 9 people in the beginner's session

    don't worry... when u recover from ur injury... work harder... u have the power n technique, u got to trust urself... think abt the games u played, wat r the mistakes made; make sure u don't repeat the same mistake/s again...

    u will improve n join them in the intermediate in no time...
    *ps - my friend n i (guys) were beaten by 2 ladies... (5 - 15, tats the old scoring system)... ladies can be veri good players too...

    Hmm I'll ask him ba, I think the intermediate session also looking for pple so shd be no prob... else yah like uncle tanlee said this time we stick to beginner first next time then change loh, also can... but I going overseas next week haha so just joining for 1 session for now.

    Yah last week's session shiok, can tell that although jeremy is not playing competitively liao he's still very good, way above our standard. I think s_fiq's and his fren also quite good.
