Real Sweat

With a new racket, I was eager to test it to the max since the day it was return to me but I was only able to try it out yesterday. It is indeed a better racket than the older brother. More power and control felt throughout the game with Rich.



This is also the first the two brothers met each other on court. Their length is the same except the netting area differs. The younger chap seems to have longer and bigger spacing on netting.

It was a hard game though we have only played two sets (A Draw-one each). In fact, I have not played a game since a month ago. Judging from the photo I took, you would agree indeed I would need a lot of fast games to improve my stamina and sharpen my rusty skills...




Luckily, Mr. Tee is not free to join the game....if not the earlier prophecy shall be or not fulfilled...hehehe

Oui! Oui! Don't try to be a hero.

If you have chicken pox, go and see a doctor, dammit. At this point of time, you should have rest at home instead of spending your time at the squash court. You thought that by saying "never mind" and your chicken pox will be gone already?

I SWEAR it WON'T!


Eeehh! Eeehh! Janganlah marah, bang. I say, say only mah.

On a serious note, I envy you. I salute you for able to find time for game.

Can I put my hand down now?

Ok! Ok! I heard that already. Loud and clear. I know time management is important. And I also heard you saying "we control our life and destiny."

What else?

"Exercise is good for health"

Anymore?

"When we sweat, our blood will circulate and it brings O2 to our organs which is essential to our health."

What? You got some more?

"When we exercise, the toksin in our body will be flush out. That explains those who exercise more will less prone to sickness than those who don't exercise."

ENOUGH! ENOUGH! ENOUGH! DAMMIT!

I feel the guilt in me already.

Gonna to have "chicken pox" this afternoon.

Of course new 'girl friend' is always better than old one.....longer (hair) and bigger (Q Q) ... what more to say!

At one time you lost your new 'girl friend', you would much appreciate the old one....but now.... forget about you used to have an old one...

Joe, don't ever push me to the limit! You said you gonna to have 'chicken pox' this afternoon??? You want to do it again like the last time you stay in Kuching alone??

What? dont tell me you have forgotten?????

Walk alone in the house with hot dog & eggs!! (neighbour aunties scream.....)

Joe, you know best what to do...but as we aged...I do find it a great challenge to meet my priorities in exercising...

those days, I just could not miss a single day of squashing...it is like my routine meal.

I am trying to focus more in getting more hours of sweating whenever I can (in KL many of my colleague maintain a strong regime of gym activities...they attend on early morning session and others disciplinely going for jogging)

Hei..jangan cakap lagi..nanti kena suan ! enough talking leh...just do it !

Heroes, to be honest, I cannot fathom what you are trying to say with my write up.

Don't mind to enlighten me in the email?

Heroes said...

Joe, in fact I also cannot fathom your meaning....hahahahaha.... GOTCHA!!!!!

Why email? Cannot write it here kar?

If you don;t know what I am trying to say, then how come you know how to response to my entry?

That is damn funny. Should I call it "stratagem"?

Ok, let me tell you all my message.

The 2nd photo is actually sweat. But I take it as if it is chicken pox. That is why I asked him to stay at home..bla...bla.

The rest are the conversation between me and MGB.

Got it ?

Heroes said...

Joe, Joe.....I got what you mean as just want to tease you only....that's why I said GOTCHA...

hehehe.....BTW thanks for your phone call just now....

Haiayah...just trying too hard...

I lose out to Mr. Tee 6-9, 9-0 & 9-10. Both of us played all out like it is the last of our time to play....huh !

Oh..yes...I am correct....I didnt managed to pluck the two eggs from him but only one....it was so song....you want what I meant ???

First set was fast and I was eager to nick every shot but Mr. Tee was good at his running and managed to pick up most of the time....hehehe by the time the 2nd set...no need to elaborate you know the score...

Coming 3rd set and deciding game, it was neck to neck (not kissing..choi). I was already nearly flat but just able to carry my big frame to drag to the finish line....at 8-8, it was exchanged for few times of service....at last, I could run further and the set goes to Mr. Tee.

A good game...and I looking forward to pluck the other egg dangling there !!! but will ensure to bring them home..heheheeh

Mr Tee said...

It was a good game indeed bro MGB. I decided to 'lose' an egg and reserve the 2 dangling in order to balance myself.

It was more of a mind game. Losing 2nd game helped me to recover for the 3rd game duel which I knew would be an agony.

Shall we meet again this Sat at 3pm?

Heroes, u shd at least try to pick up ur squash. calling.....

Heroes said...

mr tee, squash is almost a history for me lor....furthermore, my stamina is not as good as you guys, you know...i need to carry a watermelon anywhere I go.... :-(

BTW, if I play with you guys, I think all of you would not 'song' as no sweat...but so 'song' as you pluck all my eggs!!!!!

mygreatbuds said...

Heroes, dun confuse kiwi with eggs,,,

Mr Tee said...
