One ball and 10pins, yes it's bowling. I wasn't a real fan of bowling although randall bought me a ball and shoes a few years back. Not until the beginning of this year when randall got 'kicked out' of his dad's bowling team LOL It wasn't because he didn't perform well, he was the best bowler in their team, but since HSBC wants to sponser its players, they would only allow employees to join.
So randall formed his own bowling team, consisting of 8 bowlers. Team name was decided as "Never Say Die". We were the underdogs, we still are in the weekly league, but each of us has improved tremendously once we started bowling this year. Randall, the team captain is very proud of us, that is why u can spot him smiling ALL THE TIME (even if he misses his spares..) during bowling HAHA
Anywayz, we played against the strongest team today and although we lost this time, all of us bowled our very best. We lost 8-12. Close call eh? Strongest team man!! They have a state player and an ex-malaysian bowler in their team... -_- But, they are humble ppl, they gave us tips every week so that we can improve in our games. However, it was dissapointing as lucas can't join us.. Last week was the last week to enrol new bowlers.. NVM! can form another team for friday league!! :p
Bowling is not as simple as hitting 10 pins, u need to be able to be consistent, and be strong, mentally as well (Cos opponents tend to 'psycho' the not so good bowlers -_-). Talking about being mentally prepared, I have a chance to prove myself now since I will be bowling in another bowling league in 1u which is held every monday. Randall, wyzek and I were asked by 3 different teams to join them. This is not the best part, next week, my first time playing, I would be up against randall's team!! hahaha How interesting... n intimidating at the same time. Practiceeeeeeeeeeeeee!! I must beat randall, and he will nvr get the end of it! :p LOL
Practice makes perfect, so I am off to practice tomorrow morning with randall. Tomorrow will be another competition in Mid Valley, 8-pin tab (ie. as long as your first throw hit 8 pins and above, u will be given a strike). So wish me luck, Im keeping my fingers crossed!

Haha finally something about bowling (and not baking haih.. haha). I shall comment weeeee~~~
LoL true true. Words cannot express how proud i am. Tho u all could learn to spare better =P Sparing is the next most important part of bowling besides striking. For eg. we could have won them if our first bowler have spared better. LoLz. Nola jk jk... But seriously..
Yea it was a bummer the noob cant join. Hopefully i can find more kakis for the friday league. Need to make new bowling buddies.. or try and convince more ppl to take up the sport lol. Hmm can i use ur blog to advertise? But there's not many readers.. and the probability of anyone reading this is like 0.00001.. sienz.. Nvm i shall do it here anyways. LoLz.

LoL that reminds me. Had one of the most wad-da-f day. Today i went bowling with my bud jian. While bowling there was this family, a mother and 3 kids, that took a lane beside us. For couple of minutes they were staring blankly at the monitor and around the ball returner machine. We were thinking probally they had no idea on how to key in their names. So jian and i kindly went to ask them wats wrong. U will nvr guess wat happened next. The dear mum pointed to the ball returner machine and asked "How to play ar? Why got no ball coming out?"
