PlainWater: Puffy balls

At the potluck gathering, we were talking about playing tennis again and Ejay has been pressing all-week round that we should play while he's here, in KL. (Nak tunjuk tere larr tuh, maklum larrrrr dah 4 taun training ngan Pak Ya and Youhanicky). ekekeke.....

Thus, last friday, we (Ejay, Fassek, Jeli, Bachuk and myself) were supposed to play night tennis at Bachuk's place in Bukit Antarabangsa. I skipped my weekly hockey ritual just to make sure that this once-in-a-while tennis session with the clan members goes as planned. Everybody were excited and eager to meet-up and play plus a chance to witness Ejay's new backhand drive (Dia cakap Federer punyer backhand ikut macam dia... pirahhh). I was told Jeli went out just to get a new pair of K-Swiss shoe and Fassek is willing to have Tesco sponsoring the balls. hmmm... best nih...

Unfortunately, Bachuk blundered by not placing a booking earlier and thus, at 4pm, we were told that there will be no court available for tennis. Alamak... frust arrr camnih...

So, Ejay pon buat booking court kat Uniten at 530pm. Sib baik wa MC (MC bayar), so bleh larr join Ejay main tenis. Malangnyer, there's no Jeli, no Fassek and no Bachuk. Ejay plak eksyen, ajak wa main singles. Nak balas dendam arr tuh. 14 tahun dia tunggu saat nih.

Anyway, we met at Uniten and played some tennis.

Do you how does it feel playing tennis with puffy balls? Yeah. Irritating. Nothing goes right with your forehand drive, backhand slice, kick serve etc sebab Ejay lupa bawak bola..!!! Aduhhh.... mau kena penangan rocky nih...

Kitorang main singles and Ejay dok tunjuk kick serve baru, snap serve baru, backhand baru, dropshot baru, running forehand baru... basically, semua baru lahhhh. Eksyen tul. Setakat Youhanicky tuh, sama standard arrr skrg nih (Dia cakap larrr, kan?). Kalau dulu dia main camnih, mau ranking dia blakang Steven and Rocky jer. Mencecet gak nak main ngan dia. Tapi dari hujung court nih, bleh nampak si Ejay nih sengihhhh kerang dia.

Satu benda yg tak berubah, Ejay main tenis pakai kasut hitam. Dari dulu sampai sekarang, tak berubah. Style larr konon.

Anyway, we finished around 7pm. Buckets of sweat and a fairly good workout to shed all the calories we gobbled the day before. Then, we went for drinks and tomyam.

We should do this more often and get our kids accustom to sports activites and healthy style while connecting them together from young. Sesape yg takde kasut, pi beli kasut. Takyah beli memahal, Bata pon dah okay. Sesapa yg takde raket, wa ader extra. Bola, kita take turns to buy. amcam?
