Life's Simple Pleasures

#541 - To meet someone new who seemed interesting enough to be a friend

#542 - To be able to lie down on the field of Marina Barrage with the new friend and admire the kites in the twilight

Life's Simple Pleasures

#248 - Have a good game of table tennis

Yep, went to play tt today..one of the few times in recent years i played it..i still get a high from playing tt quite unlike the high i get from playing other sports..like badminton or tennis..& despite the fact tat i'm constantly surrounded by people who run(& run)..i never really got a high from running(i do it mostly cos i know it's one of the best form of cardio exercise)


Dunno is it that i play tt less often, so i appreciate it more(though i watched a lot of it at one point in time)..or i can play the game better so i enjoy it more(not so true now since i'm far from my peak)..or the company i have when playing tat makes me happy(i'm quite selective with who i play tt with)


One thing is for sure, the skills of my playing partner does not really matter..for i remember one of my best game was played in this dingy sports hall, with rented bats & balls..with someone who can only play 'baby balls'..


Today i played with people whom i haven't played with for years..donkey years..but 2 rallies later, it feels like i'm transported back to the days when i was still a young and naive student(ha!)

Happy Teachers' Day!

I'm not a 'teacher' teacher per se..but i received 3 presents and 2 wishes..so i guess it's a bonus?

Anyway, ys, the-one-with-wise-words said : We should wish & thank each other, everyone u interact with is really your teacher, they teach u both good and bad.

So chim hor..
