…rain, rain, go away…
Just a quick update before I head to bed…
Our first tennis match of the season was today, and it was sooooooo nerve-wracking! First of all, it was incredibly inefficient because there’s a lack of tennis courts. There were two tennis courts in all that we could use. There were 5 men’s, and 5 women’s matches that needed to be played. My match was last. Needless to say, I was totally bored for like 4 hours. There’s this stupid system where you only get to play one match the whole night. There are 3 singles players and 2 doubles teams. In order to win the whole match, 3 matches need to be won. The #1 and #2 singles player for New Asia College are both really good and on the University team with me. Our strategy was to put up our #2 and #3 singles players on them and stack our doubles to ensure that we at least win 2 matches. I would then be the tiebreaker in the last singles match, hopefully playing their #3 guy. Everything was working out as planned until…it rained! In addition to having to wait for 4 hours before my match, I almost didn’t even get to play because our second doubles team almost lost their match. Had they lost, I wouldn’t have even had a chance at breaking the tie with my singles match. They were able to pull it out though and I started my match. Five minutes into my match though, the freakin’ rain comes and doesn’t stop. They stop the match citing unsafe playing conditions. I’m irritated. They wait to see if it stops before they officially postpone the match. I’m mad. They re-schedule the match for Monday at 7pm. I’m hexa mad! The rain stops immediately after. UGH! SOOOOOOO NOT HAPPY!!! Now I have to wait until I get back from Singapore to finish this match, soooooo not cool!!!!
Speaking of Singapore. I’ll be there in LESS THAN 15 HOURS!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! I’m so excited. I still need to do laundry and pack though, but I’m totally jazzed! I also finalized all the hotel plans for Japan as well. Thank goodness all that stuff is out of the way. I still need to book my reservations for either Manila or Kuala Lumpur for next weekend though. Man, I love traveling!!!
Ok, I’ll post more later. Gotta catch some shut eye to rest up for Singapore…
hott bois + hott weather = happy ty!
