Ping Pong
Muttons on the Move has this segment everyday which I frequently hear at around five and its about this two extremely cute and funny characters called Ping and Pong who always misunderstands each other and get into a whole lot of trouble, usually ending with a frustrated Ping (or is it Pong) calling the other, "YOU STUPID AH!!".But the ping and pong here isnt about two squabbling comedians but rather one love of my life which is table tennis. This is one of the rare photos of me ponning trainings to go to the 7-eleven next to our school. Rare photo, not rare in ponning CCA:P Ahhh, that 7-eleven... Haha, so many fond memories.
Never was a good player to be frank but at least I could hit back the fast balls. Was publicity manager in my final year and played for both C and B division, losing 2 matches and winning 1. The joy of just spinning that ball right or smashing. I'd do repetitive smashes all day without getting bored or play that high ball and keeping it in the air. Then there's the luck portion of hitting an ace ball, the undercut and overcut. You'll love it if you know how to do it.
N then on your low days, I could just take my trusty NINJA bat and hit the ball against the wall over and over because the ball doesnt hurt u back so bad no matter how hard you may have hit it. Ahhh, n then theres the simplicity of the game and the thrill. Ive lost so many games before and tasted defeat... so many times, but you dont stay depressed for long after you have played the game. U just find another spar and you have fun playing the game. At the end of the bouts, you still shake hands with the other person and tell them you have learnt a lot and then you move on. Ive played with girls before from different schools and being a gentlemen, I lost my entire final set to make the person feel good because that is the rule of the game. Never hurt your opponent more than u should. When you are winning two sets then it is expected for you to let the opponent win one at least. N that is why I love this sports alot :)
