Personal Achievements
Today has been my happiest day for a long long time. Friday's always seem to make me high in terms of progression in affection. It happens every friday, so i look forward to fridays every week. So anyway, although we had the a math sets test, and although i'm gonna fail it cause i have still many things about it i'm unsure of, it isn't gonna keep me from being happy. Yep, then after school, we were around the canteen, waiting for our ''cue'' to be able to head to safra. And me and darren were discussing on ''vibrato''. I mean, almost all the oldies singers have that ''vibrato'' voice and they've trained for a very long while. And i know someone very close to me that has that voice, and that's my father, my father's a good singer, i guess, he even recorded an album for us to listen, and i asked him how to produce a vibrato, and yep, he said what i always hear, to use your stomach, your diaphragm and not your throat, who doesn't know that? Well, he said i'll have to keep training if i wanted a voice like his, and he told me i should play the piano for him one day when he sings on stage, it'll be like the father son, duo, but i wouldn't want to, maybe till i complete grade 8, which will be like, centuries later.
So anyway, me, darren, teck and kenenth made our way to safra, of course, joined by our new member, borath and his friends. I started out playing snooker with wei zhou, starting a day in safra by playing snooker helps a lot, it helps calms the heart for real playing, because snooker requires enourmous amounts of patience and accuracy, a single twitch might result in a loss of points. And yeah, wei zhou was playing like a darn pro as usual, but i did make a marked improvement. Then after that, i proceeded to the pool table, where i played with wei zhou too. Then i borrowed darren's borrowed ipod and listend to quando like one million times while playing, and yeah, yohanus challenged me, i didn't play properly, i didn't intend to, i was singing away instead, and yohanus kept asking me to play seriously, but i insisted on singing, and kenneth was telling me about table 7's interest in playing pool, and he asked if i wanted to challenge them, as i was listening to music, i kinda spoke really loudly and kenneth immediately pulled away my ear phones and told me not to say loudly, ahha. Then after that, borath must have sensed my lousy playing and yeah, he challenged me. Yeah, and before that, teck siang ran over with that ecstatic face of his to inform us he cleared the table!!! Oh my goodness, teck siang cleared the table! To those who do not understand the meaning, it simply means, his opponent broke the pack of 15 balls, it was a dry break, and teck siang cleared all seven of his balls while his opponent pocketed non in one turn. I was so happy for him, every pool player has his first time! haha, I congratulate Lee Teck Siang on his clearing. Yeah then i kinda expected a normal match with borath. Then i broke, and potted the yellow. Then i started pocketting and pocketting, and darren said, ''clear table! Wah!'' Only then i realised i was really clearing the table! woohoo! then i positioned for everything really well, then when i was in perfect postition for my last solid ball and the black, i was already in joy!! And i did it! I cleared the table for the first time in my entire life!! haha, wahoo!!!! Then rattitya or something, (whom teck cleared) walked over to our table, and i heard borath telling him, he clear table leh! I haven't even hit a ball then he cleared. Then i found it really funny, haha, rattitya got cleared and when he walked over, his pal was cleared too, haha, what a coincidence, its really like they lost a big war, both of their flanks got heavily hit. That'll show them the prowess of TPA, although borath is already in TPA
Then later that evening, kenneth proceeded to challenge a lone ranger at table 11, his friends were playing snooker, and kenneth challenged him. Kenneth later told me he lost, and he wasn't happy, cause he wasn't really good. Then teck went over to challenge him, and won an impressive 2-0 match. Then, of course, my heart itched, then i walked over to ask him too, his expression was really funny, he was like " Huh? again ah?'' haha, he has been attacked repetetively. He looked pretty old, probably in his late thirties. I won my first match, and all his friends were helping him and stuff, but i didn't mind much. He won the 2nd. I was really nervous when i played the 3rd, but i found, i didn't play seriously, i didn't even aim properly as i would for serious matches against strangers but i found myself missing. I has a 5 and the 8 left, and he had one 8 left. When i saw that his 8 was at the jaw of the mid pocket, i thought he must have won, so i left the table to pay for the table, when i heard ''hexun!'' not after 5 steps and realise he missed, haha. Then the TPA were like, "good psyching skills hexun!" haha, i did not intend to bring mind trickery into my game, i won that game. Then when he paid for that table, wei zhou challenged him again, i described this guy as a near death insect, and we were all flies, sucking the juice out of him, one by one, and now, the insect's gonna die. Lol, that was what we thought would happen but wei zhou started by giving that guy a lot of chance, then it was too late and wei zhou lost, haha. Yeah, but anyway, the insect was kinda sucked dry, ahha.
I think TPA should have an achievements list, like who we beat, how old was that person we beat, and what remarkable thing we did. And yeah, we're pretty impressed with ourselves, we've beaten people from every age group, from young teens, to mature adults aged like 40-50, and i had a match with a 70 pluser where i almost won, and of course, how could i forget that chubby relief teacher from sch, i wanna know his name, i'm so proud to have won him, he's a really good player.. And so ends another chapter of my trips to safra and my experience with the game.
