Thesis Woes + Badminton Experience

Today, there has been 2 major events that happened in my life. First one is the realization of our thesis. We are quite behind schedule. How I wish _____ (one of my thesis mates) would start realizing that and start helping out his “thesis mates”. I guess right now, he’s quite distracted. Hehe sino kaya siya? :)

Too many ideas/recommendations were thrown to us a while back in our meeting with an English professor. And most of those would cause a major revision on what we have already made in our software. Nevertheless, they were quite helpful and hopefully, we will be able to satisfy 90% of them.

Enough about thesis, let me move on to the more exciting part of this entry. The Badminton Experience. Earlier, this afternoon, Bash, Dotagod Law, and me went near Manila City Hall and played Badminton there. There were supposed to be four of us but Allen wasn’t able to make it due to an “appointment”. Nevertheless, we had 3 round-robins in a span of 2 hours.

Bash had the most wins in the 3 round-robins, collecting 5 wins. I had 4 wins, and Dotagod unfortunately had none. Law said that badminton is so different from DotA. He can’t farm opponents, nor deny shuttlecock. I totally agreed with him.

Nonetheless, there were some highlights in our games. Like how I was taunting Dotagod and he returned a major smash to me saying: “You think!?”. It was totally horrifying… I hallucinated with the image of me being OWNED by him in DotA. Another highlight was my 2 consecutive trick on Law. On my two consecutive serves, I shouted “short!” and he quickly reacted by moving away from the shuttlecock and it entered the box, thus giving me two consecutive points. Hehe it was really funny how he realized he was tricked twice. Finally, my last highlight was during the game I won against Bash. It was a similar incident to my trick on Law as I shouted “short!” on my serve and Bash, without hesitation, moved away from the shuttle cock. Hehe too bad, on the next possession, he returned my serve with a smash, thus ending my “tricking spree”.
(Note: Bash won twice against me. Thus making him the best player among the three of us.)

Well, this ends my entry for today. Hope you enjoyed it. ^^
