Random Thoughts of a Lioness

The reward of conformity was that everyone liked you, except yourself.

The ball is round..

Last week has been wonderful. Yes, I did spend the whole 7 days baked to perfection under the hot hot sun, but even that was worth it. Not only did I enjoy every minute of the games, we emerged as champ too!

The team too was one of the best ones I had so far. Funny how 16 different people could gel so well! Although Ucop's and TZ's move was sorely missed by the team, we were graced by the presence of many experienced players who joined the team for the first time. Who could be bored listening to Usin's antics or Hans's jokes? How can one not enjoy him or herself looking at the cool way Chiem & partner trashed their opponents? Which girl (or guy in some cases!) can resist looking at Baby Muffin's smile? *ooh..the fangs..the fangs* The seniors just couldn't get enough of sweet Marie (and thanks to her, I didn't feel too out of place to play with my shorts!). And yes, the nerve-wrecking final match by MJ and Wak which kept us at the edge of our seats with every point they collected. Even MCP was being nice this year by treating us lunch in a nearby hotel for winning the title. Looking back at the daily House-Hostel drive, the endless hours on the courts and the tanned complexion (or as Buster puts it - you are black!) were all worth the smile we saw on our dear captain as he received the trophy from Mr. Prez.

Oh yes, and to those MCPs out there who thought we ladies will breeze through the tourney just because of MJ..sorry to see your girls eat our dust on the court even without MJ playing. HAH!

Bring on the ASCOPE Games!
