OCCUPATION: New grad from SFU (haha smashingbird goodluck :D ), now working as software developer.

BADMINTON SKILL: Beginner/Semi-Intermediate. (or according to SmashingBird's scale, then it's ultra low beginner can't hit anything n00b to the max)

HISTORY: Started playing a couple of years ago with co-workers for fun and liked it ever since. However, I only play, on average, once a week back then and thus it wasn't serious stuff. I finally started taking lessons last year, and met some badminton forum members in the process. I still remember the first lesson that I signed up for: it was with Darryl at Dunbar Community Centre. It's where I first saw Timeless. (I didn't know he was timeless, only found out afterwards in a VRC meet) Then I believe I met Seot at Churchill, and SmashingBird at the church down in steveston.

BC/BF/BR

Forgot, but probably researching on racquets. Btw, if you know anyone selling a Ti-7 Light, lemme know, I am looking for a backup.

Other Interests

Cars....but don't have enough money to buy yet!

Next Goal

Own SmashingBird

Other Notes

-What is TTT? I just typed in whatever for the username. Later I found out it's an acronym that stands for "To The Top" that ppl use on message boards to bump a thread to the top of the page. For me right now, TTT stands for "To The Top" of badminton rankings!

-OMG I finally did end to end clears yesterday. Sweet...

-I believe all BFs that I played with have experienced my ultimate deception shot of smash-but-oops-hit-the-frame-and-its-a-drop. Even I was deceived and thought it was gonna be a smash... :eek:

haaha...yup, we should play and you'll see!

Yes, I think I'll pretty much be regularly at VRC on saturdays nights/sunday morning.
 
Hahaha is that Sunday morning as in our usual Saturday play-till-we-drop to 2AM? Or do you actually come back Sunday morning?! :eek:

BTW, you're getting better all the time. Especially now that you're getting proper training and coming out more to play. Just this past Saturday I was thinking, "Hmmm he's improving every week now".

To The Top in no time bro! :)

haha...it's the play till we drop to 2AM. The rest of the sunday morning is pretty much unconscious...

I'll practice those drives that you showed me :). I heard SmashingBird might come on Sat...I'll be aiming higher at his face. :D

haha...it's a special weapon that I don't really want that much.

haha...I dunno how you are going to rank yourself, but I'm sure it's higher than me. :)

Still got lots to improve on!
 
Your special weapon works wonder :p

convo? is that the graduation ceremony? It is hours of waiting. Tell them to send you the documents. Play badminton instead.
 
I understand TTT's office is quite close to C1 and participating a badminton training course during his lunch hour ;-)

Congratulation to your graduation. Travelling from Richmond to SFU is a bit too far to me, so, hope you have a good time on your convo day.

HAhahaha, are you kidding, its those once in a lifetime thing

I will be at school that day, so I will probably see you there.

That's great! Too bad there aren't any dropins for the gym on that day or else I'll play a bit...haha..with a regalia on... :D :eek:


PS: There are usually a lot of hot girls in nice looking clothes during convo. You can ask them if they play badminton... :D ;)

Congrats! So you are now ready to face the real world. :D

Thanks!

ahh....The real world....wouldn't it be nice if this was just The Matrix. I mean, they can just load in some badminton program into me and then I wake up in a couple of seconds and say "I know how to jump smash".

Thanks Marky!

Yup, it's a rush during lunch hour! Have to play and then eat fast afterwards. It's only once a week though. That way, there is less stress on my stomach and my wallet!

Sweet.. a fellow SFU and Ti-7 Light owner!!

Man...the racquet is expensive here. Even though if I found one selling here, I probably won't be getting it since it's so expensive (like $250). I got mine in HK (it's the SP version), so probably I'll get one from HK instead. I was gonna keep my current one for collection purposes, but I couldn't stand the temptation and used it. :D

Now, I'm actually looking for two. One for backup, and a mint one for collection. Ya, I believe it's hard to find it these days since it's a relatively old model. The one you have in Tokyo is different than the one in canada?? Can you post a pic?
