wow! sharapova vs chakvetadze was great!
excellent!
the shots were crazy really unlike anything i've ever seen before!
there was so much kick in the serve and pace on the ball i bet i would haf been aced everytime man(duh?)
oh and sharapova's really really tall! lk 1.88 m! omg. and she looks prettier in real life :X
but i still feel quite sad for chakvetadze, i mean nth this event has been abt her- not really any reports and stuff abt her but everything has juz been abt maria...and she isnt a bad player somemore. ranked 6th leh, juz 1 behind sharapova. even when she was speaking b4 the match there was still a lot of talking in the stadium indicating that no one was rly listening but when sharapova spoke, the stadium was lk super quiet. terrible right? i was listening to both though :D
so i was lk supporting her(chakvetadze) last night but was very sure sharapova was gna win cos i think it was her event and she juz invited chakvetadze. the match was 6-0 7-6(12-10 wth?) and i was sure they weren't playing that seriously but still, the shots were topclass. i mean it's not normally the play a tie break until 12-10! it usually ends at 7-5 or lower. and seriously with so many set pts and match pts for both players they wd surely haf gotten it early in a real game, but well it was great experience!

Hello! I'm back!
Just got back into Singapore Waters yest morning.
The Rhapsody of The Seas is seriously super nice!!!!
it's lk almost twice the size of Virgo and it's just nicer la.
the design and stuff.
and i think this one has more crass also.
but i guess cos this ship is serving mostly ang mors.
it's super nice(i think so anyw, u haf to kinda see it for urself. can't quite describe it.
oh ya and there's a rock climbing wall on board.
climbed it lk 3 times, incl the 1st climb and the last climb on one of the days.
haha. it was fun man.
the shows are pretty gd too(much better than virgo also). there was this stage magic show thing on one of the nights. some John Taylor guy from australia. the tricks weren't really mind blowing but certainly very entertaining. i remb this trick where he got 3 volunteers on stage and was lk asking them questions and replying in their place with the most ridiculous of voices. super funny man! then he got 3 ropes all of diff lengths and when he handed the shortest one(really short) to an indian guy(one of the volunteers abt our age i think)he said "nothing personal buddy". then everyone incl the indian guy laughed and he kinda did a high pitched giggling for the guy to make it seem as if the indian guy was laughing liddat. damn funny. and he "gave" the other 2 volunteers funny voices. one sounds super deep(given o a woman). and another lk he's burping(some guy). super funny.
so anyw the ports of call were at KL, penang and phuket.
bought ehm.
some stuff which shd nt be posted here.
oh and i can't imagine why some ppl abt our age also would want to park themselves at the arcade and table tennis tables(which were next to each other) on the cruise. lk no life man. juz stand there and swipping their cards and playing lk xiao or standing there and playing table tennis for 5 days. wth man.
i managed to play at the arcade once without even paying :D
one of those nerds swipped his card for the jurassic park 3 machine and he thought it din work when it flashed on the screen "press start button". but he din see it and was juz shooting the gun at nowhere in particular. then he was lk "walao i think spoiled already la". then both him and his brother left the machine and my brother and i got a free game :D
haha.
and the casino right so cool one.
even children can go in but cant play.
and we found lk a total of US$4 in total in coins everytime we walked through!
ppl actually forget to take all the coins form the tills after their done!
lol.
but i did lose smth.
My water bottle. the one nick tan gave me(sry!)
i haf no idea where it went! shit. ah well cant do anth abt it.
oh and i played bingo on christmas day too cos kids play free!
cool eh. almost got bingo. i needed a 24 to win and the number called was 25 and another person happened to bingo! wasted. so close. could haf won US$286 leh. well juz unlucky lor.
and basically we juz ate and ate a lot on the cruise cos that's wad u do on a cruise.
but it was a gr8 experience. shd try a Royal Caribbean cruise guys! it's rly good. makes star cruises look so LC.

i feel lk going for a 24 night cruise they were advertising for onboard on the Legend of The Seas. Singapore to Rome! and with abt 6 or 7 ports of call in between. cool right? maybe when i retire bah...

sigh...so close. so disappointing. i lost lk 4 sudden deaths. the outcome could have been different but unlucky me.
ok this won't be an emo post.
i juz wasnt gd enough to win today i suppose. could not settle and couldn't dictate play lk i would lk to. in fact he dictated most of the points and won. and im convinced i had an ace. but well wad to do?
on the positive side, my serve was top form man i think.
and i din rly make a lot of unforced errors but he kept forcing errors.
hmmm but i wasnt happy with my drop shots today.
either hit the net tape or to deep for a drop shot so he capitalise on that.
ah well you win some you lose some.
i juz guess he won cos of experience.
nv lost in the 1st rd i think.
