The first time I joined the company’s badminton tournament was just to experience the feeling of being in it and have some fun.. Winning was far from my mind co’z I know I was really a newbie with this sport, all i know was to hit it hard and that’s it.. no dropshots, no trick shots, no jumpsmash etc.. And as I expected, we didn’t win a single game…All I can do is just charge it all to experience…Hehehe… 
And last saturday was the second time I joined the tournament sponsored by our company…this time I said to myself that I’ll be very happy if we (me and my partner – Derra) will win a single game… But I am not putting pressure on my partner since its her firstime to be in the tournament.. She was very excited and at the same time nervous to play… and always reminding me not to blame her when she makes a mistake…and I assure her that I will not.. we join the tournament to play and have fun, and not to make a telenovela. hehehe… and so our first match begins, we were both anxious how our game will turn out…luckily we won our first game! Yey! I’ve fulfilled my aim for the tournament.. to win at least a single game… from there on, everything will be a bonus!
After the first game was the opening ceremonies…some presentation blah blah blah…updates on the club blah blah blah…the raffle draw came for early birds were drawn…(stressing on the words, Early Birds..hahaha…) I vaguely hear it when a name was called…I sounds like it was my name that was called…So I move closer to the speaker so I can hear it clearly.. and yes! it was my name! Yey! I won a badminton bag … so I came infront and claim my price… wuhoo! this is only the second time I ever won from a raffle draw… the first time was when I was in grade school and the prize I got was a box of nestle milk… hahaha… but still im so happy that I won for the second time… Hahahaha
The matches resume after the ceremonies… unfortunately, we’ve lost our 2nd and 3rd game but we didn’t get murdered by our opponents…we laughed and danced even when we we’re at the middle of the game…we gave them a challenge in every match…we we’re just enjoying the games…no, i’m not trying to cover up our mistakes here…we both acknowledged that we didn’t have time to practice together before the tournament…just charge it all again to experience…hahaha…
After the games…we went to Rockwell(PowerPlant? why is it called Powerplant anyways? is there a well of rock there? or what kind of powerplant is it? ) aboard our ‘kidnap’ van powered by Beng… It was my first time to go there and everyone was teasing me when we arrived there…I was too tired and sleepy though to play around with the stuffs there…We seldom stop to girls shop since me and Beng were outnumbered by them, 2(me and Joven) against 4 (Abby, Derra, Kaykay and Katsy), I am not complaining! Hehehe :-p We ate at Burgoo… ordered a Jambalaya samtin’ samtin’, I don’t know since its also my first time to eat there…Hehehe…(probinsyano kase eh…) It’s fun co’z they lend us crayola’s to draw anything (no obscene please!) on their papermats… Hehehe… we we’re like children playing with it…It’s fun especially with Derra’s antics (sound epeks while drawing a dinosaur…arrgghhghh..)… Then after eating, we decided to go home and call it a night…
