To post some interesting reports and pics for us . yannie ... If you and Anne can find time, don't forget to post some interesting reports and pics for us. .
So, i take it.. ...you and Anne will be skipping classes the entire week (don't worry, i won't tell the professors/instructors) and you'll be squad-less this yr (not assigned to help any squad??)..If so, that'll be groovy, as you'll get a chance to watch the actions and probably mingle with the players then..
aiya, i just got to know i have to take care of all playes la. btw, updated draw, enjoy. http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/draws.aspx?id=24828
^^Hmm..^^ ..i won't be surprised if your facebook friends multiply after this Denmark Open.....Btw, you sure you can handle that many players?? Are you THE ONLY LO for this Denmark Open??..
there's many LOs for this year's denmark open like last year, but very few of them are as experienced as me and anne.
^^So..^^ ..with the absence of so many players, which players are you especially looking forward and eager to meet, mingle and hang out with??..
^^I know..^^ ..just checking to see how excited you are...(i'll say i have to give you a 9.5 out of 10 in the excitement level....all the textbooks, study materials being put away..)
Nudge, nudge.. ..(wink, wink)..ms. yanyan, sorry to bother you...i know you and Anne are having a blast over there, enjoying the matches and hanging out with the players. Anymore news or updates to share with us all??....we feel like we're in the dark, somehow...
